Honda unveiled an updated version of its Asimo robot, left, last year. With more than a fifth of the population 65 or older, Japan is banking on robots to replenish the workforce and care for the elderly.TOKYO -- -- At a university lab in a Tokyo suburb, engineering students are wiring a rubbery robot face to simulate six basic expressions: anger, fear, sadness, happiness, surprise and disgust.
Hooked up to a database of words clustered by association, the robot -- dubbed Kansei, or "sensibility" -- responds to the word "war" by quivering in what looks like disgust and fear. It hears "love," and its pink lips smile.
"To live among people, robots need to handle complex social tasks," said project leader Junichi Takeno of Meiji University. "Robots will need to work with emotions, to understand and eventually feel them.

"robots need to handle complex social tasks"
Most REAL PEOPLE can't handle complex social tasks...
How is it one can equate science as a belief system when...
a belief system is supported by nothing more than an opinion. --- Science is nothing more than the prediction of the next most probable.--- Any belief system is supported by nothing except imagination, while the next most probable is supported by observation of some phenomenon that can be recreated under the same conditions by anyone, at any time and the result will be the same. This is Science. This is how fact is established.--- One can imagine anything, however it can only become Science when it can be measured i.e. detected either directly or remotely. Failing this it simply does not exist.
Skip, you need to be deprogrammed.
You are such a secular fanatic you no longer realize the fundamental tenets of this religion you called "science" are also based upon consensual definitions accepted on faith.
Yeah yeah there's some math and physics and engineering, yet there is very little understanding.
Technology gurus, celebrated futurists, and Newtonian prophets are mere evangelists and preachers spreading their version of the gospel.
That depends. I would agree that Kurzweil is.. with his Singularity nonsense based on a Price System logic.. out to lunch.
Look up secular one of these years D.V. .... It is a word that means something other than your soldiering false flag interpretation of brainwash construct directed from Babylon.
