Well, that creeps me right out.
I'll wait for version 2.0.

I can't think of any legitimate use for this thing besides maybe threatening my kids to let it read them a bedtime story if they don't go to sleep.
Maybe we should program it to have the voice of Tom Waits and have it interrogate people who are potentially terrorists. The military could mount them to the front of tanks like something out of mad max to intimidate foes.
The next hollywood robots gone haywire movie needs to look to something like this. It could be the Pet Cemetery or Nightmare on Elm Street of our time to watch this thing sing Adele to a person while it beats them to death or removes their organs for donation and places them carefully on ice.
The plot for the movie could be instead of just laws for robots the robots enforce similar laws of people and when a person is in violation they casually shut them down and part them out to better behaving humans with nothing but similar good intentions to humans who shut down misbehaving robots.

The video isn't interaction with a robot. It's just an ugly stereo. Video needs to be re-titled.

But, is she any fun ----- at a party ?

Daishi....it's already been done years ago. Watch "Westworld" the movie from the 1970's.

I believe that in five years, this will be trotted out as an example of "nice try" and poor simulation. Obviously, work needs to be done on the eyeballs and their focus. The eyelids and muscles all around the eyes are not active, which gives it a dead look. Think about this: I can make eye contact with the driver in another car twenty meters away, but I cannot make eye contact with this robot, even when twenty centimeters away.

I'm wondering when the sex-doll industry will join with the robotics industry, and produces sex dolls that are fully interactive, for ALL household duties. Just imagine, a robot that does all the household jobs, while the owner is at work, cooks the evening meal ready for the owners return, makes a late night hot chocolate, and then keeps its owner warm in bed. It will never get tired, or have a 'headache' and wont nag, or have a mother in-law. That has got to be a winner!

Fail. And terribly so. A lot of progress on this front, but a humanoid robot that looks like a human, acts and talks like a human and moves like a human is still a long way off. Powering these things will be an issue for a while to come. I can see a use for things like this (once they got it to be close to human-like) in a lot of retail and office settings, but I don't know if the cost will be justified and if it will really be a huge benefit. It's a good way to push the technology and as always, new markets will develop for new products that we can't see or imagine now.

That robot has a cold and manufactured personality that reminds me of Hilary Clinton.

This type of robot is just boring and useless. Why bother with these things that can't really do anything outside their programs boundaries. Great idea, hire a human.
