      That is the dark possibility. They could come up with all sorts of insane means to justify company owned humans to abuse. Imagine being grown in a vat just to work a job and having no idea of anything else.

      The upside is that robots will be a lot more viable and cheaper a workforce than vat babies, so it is unlikely to happen outside of some dystopian colony on another world.
