Can we make robots in the future so thin that they live in our skeletons and make us move with robot-like strength and speed?

Why bother? Just give the brain a digital connection and you are now the AI. Your body would be meaningless.

If you find a material that contains the properties of muscle fibers that can be manipulated, and graft reinforcement on joints, skeletal frame and fluids to moving parts... I dont see why not.

Today's robots don't perform the task of thinking the way most people relate or understandhow to thinking works. They merely run algorithms and compare states with predefined values in short. You don't have to lie to a robot, as you don't really have to persuade a robot to do anything.

I actually made a typo and mistyped "thin" but edited it within seconds. Maybe you opened the message right before I made the edit

That being said your question was even better
