My future friend!


so, I'm sure you heard the news yesterday:)
If not, I like to introduce me new friend, who can actually express his emotions:)
In the western world, showing your emotions is not a good thing, or at least if it is good, it is not how they train their children. That's why people like me, with so much emotions, end up having few friends or lonely; and I'm talking about me who had literally a million friends back in Iran. Here, after years of hanging out with cold people of west, I am missing just that little social part of my life in Iran. The other portions of life here is perfect!
Anyways, now by watching this creature, I think a new world has been created, where robots can fill your real friends places, robots with emotions, those who are not afraid of showing their emotions-just because they think they might get hurt.
here's a sneak preview of him.
and I'm in love with him already!

"Jun. 5 - Robots may not be able to feel emotions but Japanese scientists have created one which they say expresses them.

The newest Japanese humanoid robot, named ''Kansei'', frowns when he hears the word ''bomb'' and a smile lights up his face when he hears the word ''sushi''.

The robot created by a Japanese university research team can make up to 36 different facial expressions stemming from English words such as happiness, sadness, anger, disgust, fear and surprise -- and any combinations of these emotions.

Toshi Maeda reports."

I totally agree with you.I am losing my mind soon,living between the coldest people on the face of earth has taken all the joy in my life from me. litrally I am not a part of this society, I feel like leaving in a deserted island. they just show emotions when they are drunk.

Dear one,

I deeply understand your suffering in this alienated society.
To conquer despair and reduce your sadness, try to do some research on the reason of their coldness...You are a scientist and your knowledge is based on reason...Please see the movie MINDWALK and read THE GOD DELUSION....I totally trust your tender heart and believe in your values and I'm the same way as you are ...soon all we have to make love with invented robots instead of humans! Indeed they're more capable of giving than these....
So much love,
Ezzat
