If they add a "Purdy mouth" feature I'm getting one for sure.

Plus them hands look might soft.

But they gotta dress it up a bit. At least put some lady lumps in the asstronaut get up!

this thing has made a ton of progress lately... really, besides batteries, the only thing holding them back is replicating the intense precision of human senses. balancing while walking is second nature for us. and a major bitch for a plastic hominoid.

One more thing. We got one of our own, it's in orbit experimenting on it's own with learning zero gee gravity. NASA's Robonaut 2. It doesn't have legs, but you don't need legs in zero gee. Guess we'll buy Honda legs for our GM robot later, when we need them.

Upgrades will include one leg, two legs, wheels, rover chassis, and EVA capabilities to fly in space. Eventually it will put on a maneuvering backpack and fly around outside the space station and fix stuff. Or go along to the Moon or Mars to do the boring dirty work.

edit: There is some tasks that will happen right away, like changing air filters in the space station. No one likes to do that. Boring. On another planet, it would make a good gardener, growing food. Or a good prospector, out digging up important stuff and bringing it back. Air, water, and metals. Nutrients/organics if it can find them.

Here, have a nurse android. The most real robot I've seen yet. I keep waiting for her(it) to reach out and slap someone for messing with.
