This Next-Gen Android Wants to Destroy Humanity [Video]

This robot was present at the SXSW festival and took the liberty to express her desire to destroy humanity.

Robotics is finally reaching the mainstream and androids – humanlike robots – are everywhere at SXSW Experts believe humanlike robots are the key to smoothing communication between humans and computers, and realizing a dream of compassionate robots that help invent the future of life.

Seriously, these androids’ facial expressions are much more convincing when they used to be a few years ago. Now try to imagine what they’ll look like in just 10 years. Here’s another one from Hanson Robotics, the same company that made the one featured on top of this post.
