I think it would be interesting if there were some "robotic" blocks that players could make and control. Please note that since these are blocks they are very simple.
DRILLER
need to craft: 7 iron bars, 1 drill, 1 redstone
The driller requires fuel to operate. When activated by the player (or redstone), it would move forward slowly, and if it runs into a block, it will mine it. It has a GUI (graphical user interface) with a fuel slot and ONE storage space where the first mineral it collects will go. If it hits an ore that it can't store, it will shut down. Fuel will keep it running the same amount of time as a furnace. It will dig at the speed of a player with a wood pick (though it can mine all minerals). Drillers can also be stacked on top of each other (max 2)
so that they can dig tunnels players can fit through. The stacked drillers would function as one unit, like large chests, and would have two storage slots, two fuel slots, and require twice the fuel to operate.
GRINDER
need to craft: 5 iron bars, 3 drills, 1 redstone
Similar to the driller, but cannot pick up ores and does damage to mobs at the rate of a cactus. Also can be stacked.
FLYER
need to craft: 4 iron bars, 1 propeller, 4 clouds in a bucket
The flyer needs very little fuel to operate (because of the clouds in buckets). When activated by the player (or redstone), it would fly upwards at the speed of a walking player until one of the following three conditions:
1. it runs out of fuel
2. it hits a block
3. it comes next to soul sand
when one of these conditions are met, it will wait for 5 seconds and then fall down until condition 2 is met. It would have a GUI with just a fuel slot. Cannot be stacked, or joined in any way.
OTHER ITEMS
drill: 3 iron
propeller: 5 gold
cloud in a bucket: scoop bucket while in a cloud; also halves falling damage and negates falling damage below 2 hearts
POSSIBLE USES
The Drillers could be used for mining, or making underground complexes,
the Grinders could be used for traps, or outright combat,
and the flyers could be used for elevator systems.
CONCLUSION
I think these blocks could be a great addition to the game, make the uses listed possible, and many more. Please poll and comment!

Creeper creeper blew me up,
blew me up with all my stuff
I lost my clock
I lost my gold
I lost my very special bow
Creeper Creeper blew me up,

oh creeper how I hate you so,
to heck with you away you go!
I suggested a giant drill not too long ago. Sorry.
I'm sorry if I offended you, but our posts were different. I mean, what's wrong if I put my own spin on ideas? Minute differences can make things very different.

I don't like it. Having stuff auto mine for you and having a ****ing flying robot? Doesn't fit into minecraft. The pistons are about as high tech as minecraft could get. I mean, we in humanity right now don't have flying robots...

Actually, yes. Yes, we do. Granted, they can't do much other than play badminton against each other if you strap the racket to their tops, but we have them none the less.

na, it would be hard to convince the community and the admins, it would be better suited as a mod or edit texture pack

Also , none of these items fit into minecraft
Does redstone dig blocks? no. Does redstone kill people? no. Does redstone fly? no. (EPIC FAIL)
you just made one of the least helpful comments on the mc forums. why doesn't it fit in minecraft?
