ASIMO, Honda’s Robot can now serve you coffee. While the collision detection and new decision making processes released with the latest version are way cool, artificial intelligence scares the crap out of me.

It always has, and it always will. Has anyone ever watched the Terminator I? What about Terminator II? Don’t even get me started about Terminator III! The Matrix? For God’s sake!


On the flip side, I do think it is rather poetic that the first job they picked to replace with a robot is a barista.
