Professor Ishiguro believes that it may prove possible to build an android that could pass for a human, if only for a brief period.

"An android could get away with it for a short time, 5-10 seconds. However, if we carefully select the situation, we could extend that, to perhaps 10 minutes," he said.



hmmmm.... 10 minutes, you say? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wub.gif)

All I can think of is that Citibank commercial where the woman is sitting getting a manicure and the voice of a teenage male is saying "and 20,000 bucks to complete my robot, my GIRL robot. This is gonna be the best prom ever!"

For what that thing must have cost they could have at least made her Hot. I mean Denise Richards can only fool you into thinking she is human for like 5-10 seconds too. Hot dumb broads is a competative market. Fugly dummies....not so much.
