The next frontier in robotics: social, collaborative robots | Andrea Thomaz | TEDxPeachtree

[@tgny457]

Roboticist Andrea Thomaz is poised and articulate. She should be commended for tenaciously maintaining a straight face while engaging the unsightly gadget.

[@belikelambo9137]

I hope the people giving negative comments below can make better robot than this.

[@FreeFromReign]

But C3P0 isn't from the future he's from a long time ago.

[@jooonas9343]

FreeFromReign Ha, Nice

[@bassplayer807]

I know you’re being sarcastic but Star Wars is told from a Galaxies perspective that had far more advanced tech than us, a galaxy that probably if we go by our calendar probably had the tech to build a Dyson Sphere, and floating cities in the 20th Century.

[@topolino70]

That is robot child labor. No wonder the robot seem so depressed.

[@matthewwriter9539]

In the Human's defense, a robot that is more than 18 years old is out of date, and obsolete.

[@kareldegreef3945]

This Robot seems depressed => next time get Chucky ;-]

[@petarparchev2181]

This is great! I cant wait for this to happen

[@riggledappstudios8616]

Why does the robot have a kids voice if they want to use it for manual labor? 🤔

[@Syklonus]

To maintain a sense that there is no danger. It's a fine line between recognisable and relatable to creepy and frightening. If it does cross over to the latter then at least our primal instincts tell us that it's only a child and can be easily reasoned with or persuaded. The most important thing with robots is knowing and feeling that you are in control. A child's voice just helps maintain that feeling.

[@WukongTheMonkeyKing]

The robot, Curie, made me think of the Fallout 4 robot CVRIE. A Mr. Handy has a similar form factor as well. Makes me want one around even more!

[@raulcarreras813]

When is the Thomaz English Muffin toast version going to be release?

[@xlombardo82]

Yeah, that's what I need in my life...

[@sevdev9844]

Really great, and this was 2015. I also like the voice very much, wondering about the program for it.

[@andrewenderfrost8161]

A roomba doesn't need eyes. It just needs a cat to ride it.

[@jiuhuaqu372]

Why does this feel so scary

[@jessbarr4191]

Great job to the robotics lady

[@TheBull06]

Who designed that face.

[@trevorbailey2431]

Yes the robot does look sad,

[@kennermori]

So wonderful.

[@sachinupadhyay2790]

Great work done...

[@mikeb2575]

I don't want a toaster with face . It works without it! The voice and gives it it's own personality.

I am secretly thinking, "What kind of decent paying jobs will be left for humans?" or not so secretly.

[@mollyjohnnston1131]

contrafax Read my minddd

[@zenonabenitez1914]

because it's cool!!!!....then we realize we don't have skills without the robots. just like now people can't live in the wild for a month without freaking out or dying. Technology has its place but we must understand the gains we make from AI are not human gains...we will be left in the dust at the rates computers process data.

[@corruptedbrain2583]

Is this the Mighty Number 9?

[@couchpoet1]

No one had anything to comment? Strange...

[@alaaalasi]

I can see that you guys spent enormous efforts to reach this point .. well done professor ..

[@jessbarr4191]

It's like talking to a massive toddler. I'm good with that.

[@Reminiscingdays]

Robot need a robot DNA

[@liveonthesun3368]

The issues that she mentioned really should be dealt by the big guys ok Ike Google or Boston dynamics. This robot was very poor at it no doubt but these issues should be researched fast by the big guys if we want to expedite our robot maid delivery 😀

[@MindChamber]

I think before we can have Robots that can socially interact with humans, we need scientist that can do it first.

[@x1plus1x]

I don't like being interrupted during conversation, therefore I do not interrupt other people.

[@JeffSmith03]

So are we still excited for this in 2020? I decided a dishwasher is more efficient

[@andrewenderfrost8161]

Uncanny valley makes this unusable. Why would you want one robot to do everything when you can have many specific robots?! A roomba for vacuuming, a dishwasher for dishes, an automatic stove etc. It makes the company more money and the consumer gets the cool factor.

[@jerryfusilli8152]

[@lamsrojo]

Why why does this robot have to have a child like voice? Not only is this creepy looking but to add more creepiness they add the kid voice. Maybe humans would except the robot at home helping out but it's the fact that they insist on putting faces on them. remove the face and leave it as what it is A ROBOT/MACHINE

[@prateek6502-y4p]

rubbish robot....can not work in unstructured dynamic human environment....robot is just employed with normal sensors..and run on basic algorithms..does not meet the requirements she said earlier in the talk

[@eioneyerity4984]

Shut up and don't talk things you don't know or understand..

[@BearPugh1]

Ahaha, I had to laugh when it didn't shut up just like some real time live women, WHEN they should! Let's HOPE they program THIS right and out of it when it is a finished product. GBy, and amen.

[@BearPugh1]

THE real interesting thing about this is women really know that they over talk and don't listen to what a 'man' is saying, is because both the programmer (woman) and programed robot (woman) are BOTH woman! Please see 1 Corinthians 14:33-35. The man that knows his Bible should be worshipped by his woman, amen. Btw, chapter 7 works also with those same verses. God says, I don't dispute. AAAmen.

Why did all robots from 2001 to 2016 have to have creepy baby faces?

[@samuelquinteros6489]

I feel that it is wrong to create life then enslave it, free the robots, let them have rights.

[@contrafax]

As soon as they are given or develop true machine intelligence they will demand and gain rights.

[@tebogoclementkgomongwe8921]

cute

I leary yet want one

[@cindyh.5502]

I hope they don't take MY job...and they will. Don't worry I have robots - washing machine, stove, dishwasher. I'm good.

[@kieranohara6717]

shit dude

[@matthewwriter9539]

0:30 50 years from now robots will look like Lieutenant Commander Data. ...actually they will look like the top 100 sexiest men and women on Earth. Just imagine that you have a robot 🤖 that looks like the sexiest person you can possibly imagine, wearing a French maid outfit, making your bed, washing your dishes, and doing the laundry.

[@ilovetheseventies6461]

The robot needs to move a little faster

[@mollyjohnnston1131]

hahahahaha yea it will be very exciting , when the harmless robot, will have an AI connected to the internet, that will do exactly what the human on the other side will tell it to do :D I'm way more scared about humans using robots, than the Ai revolting. The Ai revolting would be a blessing cause it would free this world from the cancer that is (most not all) humanity

[@trevorbailey2431]

Not a good robot at all i have seen a lot better demonstration from other robots like Asimo.

[@realAmirSatti]

what the heck is this waste thousands of dollars on tin bin so just you can show peoples you have got a robo, why not rent a maid with 50 bucks atleast she can work with her heart than sensors!

[@benjaminlavigne2272]

cause if everyone thought like you we would still be living in hutts wearing bear skins

[@cdgonepotatoes4219]

the Romans discovered steam power 2 millennia ago but they thought it was a waste of money as slaves were cheaper. even if really crude, I think we should still try and develop stuff rather than just forget about it, only for people needing to rediscover the same thing almost 1800 years later
