Qrio has a 60,000 word vocabulary, can learn the faces and voices of 10 people, and will learn about you over time, integrating this knowledge into your conversations as time goes on.

According to Moores Law, your average $500 Compaq will have more processing power and memory than the human brain by 2050.

Sony predicts that personal robots will be as common as PC's and cell phones in the 2010's. It's interesting how much money and resources Japan (including the government) is putting into Robotics.

You do the math.

BTW - I think the topic of this thread is a little bassackwards. I think it will be the robots doing all the grunt work, and it will be the few humans who still have jobs programming them. Doesn't it make more sense to pay a robot nothing to scrub the toilet? Why pay humans to do it?
