Abstract

The advent of humanoid and zoomorphic robots, such as those developed by pioneering companies such as Tesla, is profoundly transforming social and family dynamics. This transformation is not only technological but also cultural and social, as these robots go far beyond the function of mere tools, emerging as real social actors. Their ability to actively participate in the life of communities, offering both functional and emotional support, raises fundamental questions about the future of the human social fabric and the very definition of community.
