    I can see it. There are a few tropes that come to mind:

    • Robot is unique and alone
    • Robots outlive their creators/creating civilization
    • Robots discarded after their usefulness expired

    And looking into the etymology of orphan makes it even clearer. Robots are often depicted as being dereft of rights, feelings etc.
