Malfunction is always imminent among machines. That's for sure.

Software malfunction is always possible as happens on computers now, but the hardware would be put in a place where it would be difficult to damage

Terminator the film was based on the possiblity machines become self aware (a programmer has said its impossible due to memory restrictions) I have doubts that is the case knowing our storage capacity as it now is, and growing.

interesting to see where they go with this tech

It's not the big robots that I am worried about, its the small microscopic ones that will be used to treat illnesses. Just wait until they go wrong!

Maybe if they do this it may prevent that happening?

I cannot see the hardware going wrong, software is another thing...
