….now if I could just get that sexy French maid costume to stay on the robot this time…..(where are all The Age of Spiritual Machines, Ray Kurweil’s book comments on here…??). or hey, my Siri won’t order one of these for me….she must be jealous! Is this robot the next upgrade from the Roomba?

With the advent of cognitive computing (circa 2015), general availability of memristors (circa 2017) and synthetic muscles, we should have really useful robots for the next decade. Then really MASSIVE unemployment !

This is amazing stuff. Really a robot that could pick up messes and clean would make a lot of household really happy.
