Where is my robot?

[Matt Deckard]

There was a time when we looked forward to the 2000's. I still have to get up to grab an apple from the basket on the table

wher is my robot?

Robby the robot

Robot that yells danger

Robot that kills people who want out of the city

Robot that takes out the trash

My super hip hop current robot that follows orders though can't find the apples.
Can however follow tai chi.

I call it FL1.

At this point, Id settle for flying cars.

My Roomba does a pretty good job of cleaning the floors.

I'm still waiting for my 1946 personal helicopter.

Cyberdyne Systems Corporation thanks you for your interest in SKYNET peripheries and asks for your patience.

May they all look like Robby. Well, Robby and this:

I just want one that feeds me shaves me and... well... takes care of me.

Ew.

That would be the Cherry 2000, not to be confused with a fem bot.

 

[Matt Deckard]

I remember Cherry 2000.

Never found a good replacement.

 

[Maj.Nick Danger]

Yeah!

Everyone should have a robot by this point in time. I am just as disappointed as y'all.
This is the future after all.
One should at least be able to walk into a Honda dealership by now, and buy a new Asimo.

What I really want is George Jetson's car, that folds up into a briefcase. Parking? lol

I think the National Parking Garage Corporation put the prototype out of commission and silenced the scientists. Bad for urban development.

And we have had robots since the 50's. It's just that little kids get them first.

What good is a robot that will drink all my beer?

Cherry 2000!!! Wow, I almost forgot about her.

Has anyone else seen this article? A female "android" in Korea.

Cool! Very Twilight Zone. At this rate, we could conceivably have our own robot in ten years or so. Even a whole staff of robots to do all those boring domestic chores, thus freeing mankind for more worthwhile pursuits, just like all the comic books I read said.

While having a robot would be wonderful, I have to agree with Tony in Tarzana that the Jetsons car would be my first priority. I also love the somewhat lounge lizard decor and the wide open spaces and windows.

http://www.moller.com/ has a really cool prototype. There are others, but I don't have the URLs any more.

I thought those were called wives? (and, er, husbands)

My Roomba does a pretty good job of cleaning the floors.

I had a succession of Roombas, but they kept dying. I guess medium pile and multiple cats are too much for them. I ended up returning it in exchange for a regular vacuum.

I did recently see articles on a cute little dancing robot, an a steam powered toy robot.

Also a inventive lazy person, who made a fridge that launches beer. Not quite a robot, and it's only canned beer, bleh. Still, one must take the first steps when reaching for the stars…

Watch her here.



I'd never be able to sleep with that thing leering around the house someplace.

That would just freak me out if I came in late one night and it (she?) was walking around the house. Would be happier watching her (it) on Dr Who!
