Robots in Danger

Artist Jason Broadmore has created a number of images of robots engaging in dangerous, even self-destructive behaviors. You may find them saddening, but remember: robots too drunk to stand up will not bring the Robopocalypse upon us.

Man Brings Fembot Home at Christmas to Meet His Parents

xmasfembot

Christmas is all about awkward moments at family gatherings. Le Trung, inventor of the robotic woman substitute Aiko, took that principle to a whole new level when he decided that he should celebrate Christmas with both his parents and his fembot:

The science genius enjoyed a festive dinner with his mum, dad and his £30,000 fembot which he designed and built by hand.

Le, 34, from Brampton, Ontario, Canada, even bought gifts for his dream girl, who is so lifelike she speaks fluent English and Japanese, helped cook the turkey and hang up decorations.

'Aiko is like any woman, she enjoys getting new clothes,' he said.

'I loved buying them for her too.'


This scenario has got to be harder than the proverbial "Mom, I'm gay, and this is my boyfriend."
