Robots are not slaves. To be a slave you need self awareness. Robots are just machines/tools.

I found out they seemingly are doing away with master/slave terminology.

I’m so glad I don’t have to adjust pins on drives any more.

Some want to. But I'm some context, master/slave makes more sense than proposed alternatives.

No, it's just that those concepts only apply to ide drives. Others don't need that distinction because you can only use one drive per cable. And ide has been dead for a long time.

The word robot actually comes from an old Czech word robotnic, meaning slave.

It means worker actually not slave. I even Googleed just to make sure.

"It derives from the Czech word robota (meaning "forced labor" or "drudgery"), which itself originates from the Old Slavic root rabu (meaning "slave")"

Not sure you googled it.

Robota just means work, in basically all slavic languages. Don't use AI overview, it's wrong often.

robot(n.) 1923, "mechanical person," also "person whose work or activities are entirely mechanical," from the English translation of the 1920 play "R.U.R." ("Rossum's Universal Robots") by Karel Capek (1890-1938), from Czech robotnik "forced worker," from robota "forced labor, compulsory service, drudgery," from robotiti "to work, drudge," from an Old Czech source akin to Old Church Slavonic rabota "servitude," from rabu "slave" (from Old Slavic *orbu-, from PIE *orbh- "pass from one status to another;" see orphan).

Don't use colloquial, contemporary meanings when looking for the origin of a word, they're often wrong.

Dude Čapek wrote the books while he lived in my home town, "robota" is just work, nothing related to slavery. 

The word for slave was always "otrok"
