When a Robot Asks for Hair π€
I honestly had to watch this twice. π
A man named Galika created a humanoid robot, and in the video, the robot is actually asking for hair because it wants to look more feminine, how do you know you are going to be a female!!!!!!!
At first, I was likeβ¦ wait, what?...... π
We are already used to robots doing calculations, answering questions, moving around and performing tasks. But seeing a humanoid machine appear to have a preference about its own appearance feels completely different.
And this is where things get really interesting.
If a machine can be designed to recognize itself, communicate its wants and even say something like βI want hair,β then where exactly do we draw the line between simply programming a machine to respond and making it appear as though the machine has its own personality?
Of course, there is more to this particular Galika story than what the video makes it look like. But that's actually what caught my attention.
Technology is becoming so convincing that sometimes the hardest part is not asking βCan we build this?β
It's asking βWhat are we actually building?β
What do you think? πdrop it π
Would you give a humanoid robot hair if it asked for it? People in the comments where even against it being given a hand and legsππ€
