Stellaris is an incredible sci-fi strategy game, so it just makes sense that there are robots you can develop for your Empire! If the species you're controlling during the game just won't reproduce enough to fill all the available jobs, they're the perfect solution.

Robots are an artificial population that can be built by Empires. As you improve their technology, they'll be able to complete more and more complicated tasks... but do the risks outweigh the rewards when you're dealing with Artificial Intelligence? We're here to tell you.
In order to start building robot populations, you'll need to research 'Robotic Workers,' a Tier 1 Engineering Technology. You'll also need to ensure that your Policy regarding Robotic Workers is set to 'Allowed.'
Once that has been fully researched, you can start building Robot Assembly Plants on your planets. These buildings provide one roboticist job. As long as it's filled, a roboticist job will produce 2 "Population Points" each month. Once you accumulate 100 Population Points, one Robot Population (or Pop) will be spawned.
That means it will take 50 months to spawn each Robot Pop. It's worth noting that you can't speed up the process by building more Robot Assembly Plants because only one can be active on each planet at a time. You could build a second one, but that job wouldn't be filled and it wouldn't produce Pops. If you're hoping to get a lot of Robot Pops, build Robot Assembly Plants on every planet you've colonized.
Once a Robot Pop has spawned, it will act as any other Pop does: it will start working a job! The type of job they can take will depend on how advanced your Robots are (more details on that below).
