Rise of the Machines: Meet Bina48, the robot who can tell jokes, recite poetry and mimic humans with startling ease
Almost every house in America has a microwave, toaster, refrigerator, TV and maybe a car, but someday, everyone may have their own personal robot.
It may sound too Jetsons to be true, but the Terasem Movement Foundation in Bristol, Vermont, is betting that personal robots will be a huge part of the lives of future generations.
The robots, they say, will be able to download people’s personalities, serving as avatars and assistants to busy professionals and in some cases, replacing those who have been lost.
The foundation’s prized possession is Bina48, one of the most sophisticated humanoid robots ever built, capable of independent thought, emotion, and even being interviewed by the MailOnline.
