Now you can be a Terminator!
on: December 25, 2021, 01:54:44 PM
Roboticists in the UK have developed a robot advanced enough to be annoyed by the stupid crap its programmers do to bother it, and now they are looking for a new face to put on it!

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-10342973/Robot-Worlds-advanced-humanoid-bot-grabs-researchers-hand.html

This is how it begins, at least in the Terminator saga- a programmer (who looked like Arnold Schwarzenegger) volunteered his face for a line of robots, which eventually became the T800 when Skynet had enough of our smurf.

So, basically, you could make a lot of money and be the face of the destruction of mankind- I don't really see a downside to this!

150000 £ to give up the rights to your own face forever, what does that mean really? Do you have to use the money on a plastic surgeon to change your face? :dunno:
Might be worth it for the possibility of being the face of the robot destruction of mankind :woohoo:

I believe it is for them to use your face/likeness.  I don't think it means that they now own your face and you need a new one.

Might be worth reading the fine print on it though!

They made it blink, even when it has no need for it!

A little snip snip on the battery wire with a Victorinox Classic, and suddenly they aren't so scary.

I'm sorry, Dave.  I'm afraid I can't let you do that.
