Comments on: Poll Results: Humanoid Robots Unpopular…? http://www.plasticpals.com/?p=23637 Robots who are fun to be with!

If you look at the different trends of robotic influence on daily life from country to country, the results vary immensely. Each country will accept Humanoids or Drones into their life depending on where they are from on a cultural standpoint. Americans want menial labor/spy robots, Germany/Russia want protectionist robots, China/Korea/Japan want their robots to integrate seamlessly within society (I.E. Humanoids).

I believe we will see all sorts of robots built for their respecting countries desires and expectations. The survey was far too vague and needed to be done on an international level to have any sort of relevance.

And most people are idiots, now they say they don’t want a robot but then they would buy each new model like they do with Apple’s iShit products.
