Repliee Q1
I find it somewhat soothing to stare at a fine girl. Droid or not, if I could afford it I’d create [buy] one to accompany me working at night. She could just sit [stand] there and I’d look at her every once in a few seconds to refresh my inspiration [respiration]. Design would be a pleasant job [hobby] once again.
Real girls [women, females], beware!! 
Repliee Q1 appeared yesterday [four days ago] at the 2005 World Expo in Japan, where she gestured, blinked, spoke, and even appeared to breathe. Shown with co-creator Hiroshi Ishiguru of Osaka University, the android is partially covered in skinlike silicone. Q1 is powered by a nearby air compressor, and has 31 points of articulation in its upper body.
Internal sensors allow the android to react “naturally.” It can block an attempted slap, for example. But it’s the little, “unconscious” movements that give the robot its eerie verisimilitude: the slight flutter of the eyelids, the subtle rising and falling of the chest, the constant, nearly imperceptible shifting so familiar to humans.
Update (July 28, 2005): If Howard Stern sent you here and you’re interested in finding out more about Repliee Q1 there’s more useful links here. Thanks for stopping by!

Is that really a good thing though? I’m not sure I’m comfortable enough with other humans around, let alone the possibility that the “human” i’m talking to is actually an android, and I can’t even tell.

Can you tell a transvestite from a real female? It would almost be the same thing. It’s all in your head man! I don’t usually like having another interactive human around when I’m working but a stimulated droid sitting there uhh and ahh-ing would work just fine!

Heh. I could supply living breathing humans that would sit there and uhh and ahh for you mate.

Yeah but then she’ll want more and she’ll prevent me from getting my work done too fucking much…

If they could replicate my wife as she looked when we were married, I’d take one.

[…] I’m experiencing a huge (in jermexpress.com history) traffic spike today. It turns out my post about Repliee Q1 caused it. I have no idea why or how, but apparently a lot of people are looking for that keyword. I’m actually #9 on the search result but I have no idea why people are clicking me instead of the higher search results, like this and this. Anyway, I should hope that the spike would benefit my AdSense revenue for the day, but unfortunately not. It’s just a rush of passerbys who leave as soon as they read my lame opinion about the cute bot. […]

Of all people in the world, that pervert. *lmfao* I used to watch his shows, didn’t know he still lived. I thought he would’ve died a long time ago from too much sex. No wonder he’s moving to sexy bots now. I heard a drastic change could relive one’s sex drive!
