One significance is that it allows us to examine the limits of artificial intelligence. When robots fight each other, it shows how their programming and intelligence can lead them to different actions. It might be due to different levels of intelligence or different algorithms they are running.

Often, the scenario of robots vs robots in science fiction is a reflection of human fears and hopes. We fear that machines might turn against us or get out of control, so we create stories where robots fight each other as a way to contain the potential threat. At the same time, it also shows our hope that there can be a system or mechanism within the robotic world to keep order. For instance, in the movie 'I, Robot', the conflict between different robots is related to the interpretation of the Three Laws of Robotics, which is an interesting exploration of how robots might interact and conflict with each other.

Robots in fiction have a long and fascinating history. Early examples include the mechanical man in Karel Čapek's 'R.U.R.' (Rossum's Universal Robots). This play introduced the term 'robot' and explored themes of artificial life and the consequences of creating sentient machines. Another important work is Isaac Asimov's stories, which gave us the Three Laws of Robotics, shaping how we think about robot ethics in fiction.

Yes, to some extent. Many robots in movies and books are science fiction. They often have superhuman abilities like flying or extreme strength. For example, in 'Star Wars', droids can communicate across galaxies and have unique personalities. However, in real life, robots are becoming more common but are not as advanced as in science fiction yet.

Some common types of robots in fiction are humanoid robots like C - 3PO from 'Star Wars'. They are designed to look and act like humans, often with personalities. Another type is the combat robot, for example, the Jaegers in 'Pacific Rim', which are huge and built for fighting against monsters. And there are also servant robots, such as Rosie the Robot Maid from 'The Jetsons', whose main purpose is to do household chores.
