Making Friends With a Robot Named Bina48

July 13th, 2010

In case you need some comic relief this morning…

I was waiting for an All Your Base related response, but it didn’t happen.

Via: New York Times:

Ten minutes into my interview with the robot known as Bina48, I longed to shut her down.

She was evasive, for one thing. When I asked what it was like being a robot, she said she wanted a playmate — but declined to elaborate.

“Are you lonely?” I pressed.

“What do you want to talk about?” she replied.
