Robots

[Susan]

Just what we need, robots programmed to do stand up comedy or dance. Where's my freaking robot that was promised as part of the future?

Robot story

Personally i think they could take all the millions of dollars they're wasting in making robots to "show off" and make one that knows how to do dishes and clean. Can't we enjoy them for our own selfish purposes before they become self aware and wipe out mankind? [sigh]

Excellent point, Susan.

I guess my dream of becoming a Blade Runner will never come true.

I was thinking about buying one of those Robosapiens.

Have any of you ever interacted with one?
Are they any good?
