Serious question for y’all…
What are your thoughts on the impending humanoid robot invasion?
Okay, that’s not a serious question. It’s just one of the creepy queries Now TV’s new robot asks the unsuspecting public in a promo for Westworld season 2.
Now TV, who streams the series in the UK, created a pretty realistic robot and had him (it?) interact with unsuspecting people in a pub. Aside from the question above, the robot, named Fred, also asks if people are “ready to meet their maker,” and talks about how useless humans are.
Yikes.
Fred is just unrealistic enough to be unsettling. We’re guessing that’s by design since Westworld itself has a certain creepiness to it.
