I, For One, Welcome Our New Robot Overlords…

In the following video James Corbett introduces us (with tongue in cheek) to the cutsy (def.) robots that our masters are presenting to us as being very helpful to us in our lives. Obviously, Corbett doesn't trust our masters and their seductive robots. See what you think. (You can access the video directly from Corbett's website here.) In the introduction to this video he becomes more serious and warns us about these new robots and their likely uses.
…and so should you! Just kidding. Today we explore the cute and cuddly side of the propaganda push to normalize robots in our everyday life…and the darker side of this phenomenon that they’re trying to distract us from.
