Why do robots want to look like us?

I would create a slave robot that looks exactly like me and has the same set of kowledge as me so I can send it to work for 8 hours while I stay home and relax all day. Of course I wold program it to not be sentient... because it would be cruel to turn a sentient being into a slave.

Yeah, I heard about that in star trek. I hear that data was created based on a real person right? that would be kinda weird. I think it'd rather have a female robot to serve me.
