I can't figure if there's any point or purpose in having self-aware robots. Also I'm not sure what a self-aware robot is supposed to be, or what that even means. And I can't tell in which order should these questions be tackled. Automatons sensing whether they what they say can be heard is not exactly new, that's the core of CSMA but network switches are not considered self-aware. I agree that for an Automaton to be able to answer the question sense it had answered and correct the answer accordingly is impressive, but I'm king of iffy on what that has to do with self-awareness.
