It would depend on what kind of robot I'm being transferred into...
Agree. If it was indistinguishable from my meat bag body, then absolutely! If there was significant reduction in my senses, I would consider it but would probably want to stay in my human body as long as it was viable. If there was like contemporary VR where it's just visual and audio but no taste or touch or smell... nah dawg. I think that would be more akin to eternal torture.
Actually, maybe I would agree to the robot body under condition that someone wake me up every 100 hours for a few days. I would like to time travel to the far future and see how human society develops over time, but living through all that time as just a brain that can watch TV is not worth sating my curiosity.
Yes, the robot has tentacles.
SOLD!
Also, is the immortality mandatory, or do I get to decide when it ends?
A volcano can fix these types of immortality
