Sony's Robot Attends Pre-School

Posted by timothy on Monday May 2, 2005 @12:32AM from the plenty-of-robots-went-to-school-with-me dept.

Darren writes "Sony's Qrio humanoid robot has been attending a Californian pre school to play with children under the age of 2 since March to test if robots can live harmoniously with humans. I wonder if the testing includes monitoring the 'nightmare status' of the pre-schoolers?"

Some fool modded this troll. Normally I wouldn't care, but I just have to wonder if the mod even read my post. Perhaps they did, but in the stupor of fisting their own ass, they didn't realize satire and sarcastic comments exist. Hopefully, the trolling retard that modded this as troll will read this and promptly remove his or her fist from his or her rectum. Wait...Who am I fooling? Get a fucking life.
