Life-like AIST Robot

Yup, that's a robot! Seems that most couldn't tell in the first 20-30 seconds! As modern advancements progresses it will become increasingly harder to differentiate between what is human and what is not. Think of all the potential application!

Cool!!! Can you have sex with it???

[jessballz]

what would you do if you found out you had been living right next to one?, who would you tell!??.........?........ exactly. What is this new obsession with copying what we already have here and now in the flesh? Are we trying to show off as clever humans or could this be yet another, fully planned, funded and executed weapon of deception for the future that we are all just going along with and watching unfold in awe?  wtf is going on and why!!!???

[jessballz]

yeah but if they actually do it? what if they actually manage to seamlessly collate the the advancements in computational rationality ( AI computers ) with these Advancements in Biotics?, and basically make a human? for example how would you prosecute a robot for committing what we would consider a terrible deed if, it is not human but it, itself and not the programmer, was responsible for the said act that it has thought up on its own, what then?
