*H-Man as Chaz, looks at Rika, aka Paula* Chaz-Man- "Hey, I've been wandering around Motavia for quite a while with you now. It says in that weird blue box up there that one more battle with a sandworm and we can level up to husband and wife!"

I have to say, this development has much better implications than another robot related story I saw the other day. At least the skin may be useful for prosthetic limbs, even if it does need some refinement for connecting to the human body.

There's nothing good about scientists teaching robots how to lie, though. That's a herald of the Robot Apocalypse if there ever was one.

Interesting idea. I can see how the skin thing might be very helpful. The general idea of robots sounds fascinating, but it's also a little scary. Robots seem to be outsizing humans in almost every field, if you think about it, or atleast the possibility may be there, if not now, then at some future date.
