so basically you intend a mockery of those writers like Isaac Asimov and almost any sci-fi literature with androids and movies like A.I. and series like Star Trek and Twilight Zone and games like the Megaman series
I think what your missing here is the meaning of sci-fi

A literary or cinematic genre in which fantasy, typically based on speculative scientific discoveries or developments, environmental changes, space travel, or life on other planets, forms part of the plot or background.

They are based on speculation and/or fantasy. Not facts. They are fantasy to make an interesting world. It is only to make ppl enjoy their time. Not to be something true. While it is entertaining i hope you realise that what you see isnt true and is most of the time based on speculation and not facts.
and when did i ever claim them to be facts?
but i dont agree that it is complete baseless speculation.. if someone were to ask asimov or other sci-fi authors if they thought androids who can think for themselves or even have some sort of emotions could easily become a reality.. i can almost guarentee they would say yes
authors who write vast novels on such subjects i seriously doubt write the novels thinking they have no applicance to the real world
even writers like vonnegut have had a share of displaying machines with emotions
