What is the meaning of the smiley 🤖?

As you already know, a robot is a mechatronic device, that is to say, a creation that combines mechanics, electronics and computing. Its design aims to relieve man in repetitive tasks in a specific area, since he is programmed to accomplish things automatically through imitation and reproduction of human gestures. It moves, speaks, manipulates objects according to its programming. We often find a robot in science fiction works, and we even have it in an emoji version since it is a very popular figure. By the way, it's the robot head emoji 🤖 that we're talking about in this article.
