#1 That was... Interesting.
Okay, I knew the place was big but... You've got a whole floor dedicated to a pool? That seems a bit much unless we're using it for the films too... ~~I do love the archives.~~

Then again, there's a reason I left L.A. for this place. Wasn't expecting something so extravagant though.

... I wonder if they'll let me bring Pakkun in.

	Porn is the only industry that wants to fully... explore this side of robotics. Most feel that making machine in man's image is sinful, but I believe they watch too many sci-fi movies. Robots won't become self-aware any time soon. If ever. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Agreed. Although I disagree about only the porn industry having an interest. I'm sure the military would have some use for interactive robots. ~~Better than using animals anyway...~~ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The military prefers small machines for covert operations over large, bulky, life-sized ones. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I suppose. I wonder about rescue operations, would they just use remote operated vehicles or... I think humanoid robots would be for good use there? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I think in those sorts of difficult situations... the level of robotics couldn't perform as quickly as a human could, and in split-second decisions, if it's seen thought a monitor the the human does the command, then even if seconds go by, it's too late. It's not that I don't see the use and importance of robotics, obviously I endorse them fully, but there are certain things only humans can do. I'd rather be saved by a person than a robot.

	Maa, you're probably right. Humans do react much faster for now, I guess I was just influenced by too many sci-fi movies. ^.^ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sci-fi movies are great inspirations, though. Things to strive for. This field of study runs on imagination. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	True. Let's just not aspire to the Terminator or Matrix, yes? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	No promises. (Reply to this)(Parent)
