Some people want a "cute" robot like R2-D2, some people want a Terminator.

So, post a picture. What's your ideal robot look like?

Wait a minute!

Why do the girl robots up above have smooth jaw joints, unlike all their other (visible) joints? And I have my suspicions about certain other joints... :ermm:

I didn't build them, TOT. I also would have preferred a brunette, but hey, the internet is sometimes lacking.

Here's a brunette.  Oh, wait... you'll have to wait until 2035 to buy her.  :D

Adriana Lima is worth the wait! :D

First for functionality, then for the aesthetics:

The robot below seems to be missing an important function.  :angel:

Lol - :blush: :angel::D.

Shades of "Ken"!

The one with Barbie, the "real life couple", or the one who likes black humour?

Ken of "Ken & Barbie" fame

Lol - I prefer that. :D 

I remember that there were some TV series about bionic characters, Steve

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Six_Million_Dollar_Man

and Jaime

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bionic_Woman

or

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bionic_Woman_(2007_TV_series)


But a real-life prototype looks less attractive:

@ Marianne:

Um, well... maybe the prototype bionic man is an interesting conversationalist. :ermm:

@T(h)ink

Lol - maybe, maybe not; that depends on their attitudes and on how far we need to programme them - or rather not?

:O:angel::D

Sometimes, one should not try to improve or correct nature, robots and things too much - otherwise, they might worsen or fail.


For you:

You remember Lichtenberg's hilarious creation "verschlimmbessern"?

:D

I can't post a picture of what my ideal robot would look like because the image would get removed by moderators on this site.  That should be a hint of what I want my robot to look like...if I were to make one.

I want one that looks like Cortana sounds...

What would Mrs. Didge say about that?  :O

Mrs Didge knows that it's all in my imagination anyway. *Sniffle*

Lol, well, Didge, you can always dream about your grouse mechanical sheila.  :)
