Humanoid Robots
BOP II Topic of the Week: I know I don't have $95k lying around to buy Melody, but wow does she show how fast humanoid robots are evolving into something with real emotional presence in the physical world. No more stiff kiosks. We have robots that make eye contact, read your mood, and actually remember past conversations. Humanoid robots are no longer science fiction, they are showing up at conferences, greeting people, and acting like co-workers. Any thoughts on where this is heading or how fast it is moving?

The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band wrote a song about humanoid robots back in 1968. It was titled "Humanoid Boogie". Lyrics: Hi there!
Some people say it with flowers,
Some people say it at Lloyds,
But you don't find many tryin' to say it with humanoids
Well, the Humanoid Boogie's got the humanoid hip-types
Jumpin' and-a jivin'
Burnin' out their energy cells like an infrared hot dog
Motorbike heart beats flutter to the stutter
Of the humanoid heart-throb sobbin' out a tickertape tune
By the light of the moon
Bleep bleep keep rockin' daddy, do the stroll
Because the Humanoid Boogie's full of humanoid rock and roll
Mad Dan Sugar Man and Henrietta Holocaust
Introduce to you what's new on the humanoid scene
It's a wow, it's a scream
Knick knack paddywack, give a dog a humanoid
Let's have fun, gonna get a personality cell
If all goes well
Bleep bleep keep rockin' daddy, catch the power!
Because the Humanoid Boogie's been requested on Two-way Humanoid Hour
Oh bay-bee!
Some people say it with flowers, some people say it at Lloyds
But you don't find many tryin' to say it with humanoids
(Aaah aaah aaah aaah)
Well,
The Humanoid Boogie's gonna get to number one in the
Char char char char charts voted by the
People eople eople eople eople eople of the record-buying publicoid
Programmed to a multiple response ratio
It's a wow, it's a gas, it's a Wall Street Crash
Like cigar ash
Bleep bleep keep rockin' daddy, do the stroll!!!
Because the Humanoid Boogie's full of humanoid rock and roll!!!
Oh yeahhhhh!!! Link to song: https://youtu.be/PK88UMq-hvM?si=O_ZQrwuIy0RlpTTs
