What Is A Robot?

A question just came to my mind now.

A Robot - when we say this, what does it imply?

Literarily, a robot is a machine that can automatically do tasks normally, controlled by humans and mostly used to perform repetitive tasks on an assembly line.

Yeah! a robot is supposed to do all these. However isn't it going the other way round now? Isn't humanity gradually being faced with the fear of being controlled by 'living machines' they themselves have made?
