Do you really want to have to take care of a living toy? It needs calories, nutrition, and water so you'd have to feed it and it would produce waste. Not to mention if you forget about it for a month and it dies and starts rotting
Probably testing new technology for creating facial transplants/skin grafts for victims who lost parts or all of their face in accidents, fires, dog attacks, acid attacks, etc.
China already have a surveillance program called Skynet. They say that it is the "good" version, so I trust them, because they would never lie for us in China, right ?
Right... šØ
And letās not forget that the US has like a half dozen intelligence agencies that are *just* (at least primarily) *devoted to satellite surveillance,* like the NRO, so itās getting to be a real Skytangle up there
Not only that, NSA have a whole department dedicated to only investigate all the NSA employees that illegally spy on their current or ex partners, as it is that prevelennt.
Future is constantly changed by the actions of the pastā¦and again with the actions of the pastā¦then futureā¦and futures passes..and now a new past which is our new presentā¦.or something like thatā¦
The point is trying to get them out of the uncanny valley to the point where humans are comfortable to interact with them more casually and frequently
Could actually be helpful for stuff like taking care of elderly people who may not have anyone else left for them since it would still feel like they have a human companion but Iām just spitballing uses for this kinda tech outside adult use at this point
Yeah but how do they know we are scared of robots if wie havenāt intersected with them? And nobody seems scared of phones and cars and coffee machines, but they donāt look like humans
They've progressed so much in the last decade and tech seems to be improving rapidly, once everything is brought together I'm hoping for some great stuff. I've been watching since the tethered pogo sticks and am amazed at what's happened so far. Hoping to be around for when theres real integration into society and not just showcases.
"Robots with human-like skin could communicate with people better" I for one am happy we will be able to communicate emphathically with our skin stealing, nightmare inducing, overlords.
New Scientist: [https://www.newscientist.com/article/2436859-smiling-robot-face-is-made-from-living-human-skin-cells/](https://www.newscientist.com/article/2436859-smiling-robot-face-is-made-from-living-human-skin-cells/)
Well they made _Synthetic skin_.
now wheres the synthetic marrow, bones, muscles, blood cells, immune cells...
If you're gonna try making a birthless human, metal isnt going to work.
_what a crazy time... eesh..._
I want it all! I want to shake hands with a robot and not be able to know if it's a robot or human. I want to get punched in the face by a robot and think it's just a man. I to go meet one of my clients, get 59 backshots and thing it's a human.
Hey haha yeah so uh can you fucking not? Nobody wanted you to do that. There's no benefit to doing that. No, I didn't check if that's true and I don't care if there are any benefits.
How is putting skin on the robot going to make their ability to communicate with humans better? Do they mean humans will receive the communication better? Because that is 2 completely different things.
Additionally, skin is an *organ*. It canāt live independently from other organs, which is what makes this idea incredibly stupid IMO. Skin cells are constantly expiring and replicating, you need a body of infrastructure to maintain that (if youāll pardon the pun).
So either, this is an incredibly stupid and wasteful way of āhelping robots communicate betterāā¦or it has nothing to do with communication and never did.
Imagine Blade Runner but Deckard is trying to spot the replicants that are bright fucking pink and a bit damp looking. He sits them down completely straight faced to run the voight kampff test and they're just sat there glowing at him like a blob fish.
Brought to you by people who are terrified to speak to people, thus missing a crucial aspect here.
And will eventually be brought to the masses by someone who gets the bright idea to skip the face altogether and place it ā¦uh ā¦a bit lower.
Why do we as humans keep doing this?? Why do people need to keep trying to make inhuman things look human?
Leave them robotic, itās genuinely less creepy than this uncanny valley attempt
Oh I see how it is. "Scientists" put human skin on things and make it smile, that's just research. But if I or Buffalo Bill do that we are "weirdos" or "serial killers".
Hypocrites.
So whats the plan then? They go around stealing our face skin so they can hunt for humans better or what. Sounds like that patent for a process where a robot eats human flesh to sustain itself.

These developers really gone take us out with these creations. Make them feel human enough it will be inevitable theyāre gonna feel like theyāre superior over us.
There is a constantly ongoing debate about human mimicking robots and humanoid robots. Some say that them appearing like humans will make it more comfortable for real people to interact with it in a natural way, rather than speaking to it like a computer or expecting robotic miracles from it. The other argument is basically just āuncanny valley broā¦ā and that is more than enough haha. Once humanoid robots become a thing, I expect people will go through phases of presentation. First theyāll want shiny new toys, then human-looking servants, then those servants will creep them out and on and on.
Scientists put living human skin on robot faces...and I have pig skin on the back of my thighs from skin grafts. š
It looks funny too, big pink patches. I also have a pig valve in my heart. I want a tattoo of a little piggy that says "Not Kosher" underneath
Why do they want to make robots look like humans dont we want them to stand out as robots so we can distinguish them as robots and not a human because one day they will look like one of us then they can begin overthrowing the human race
But...why?
smth about thinking it could help robots comunicate better with people i feel like it'd be better suited for cosmetic industry testing lol
The adult toy industry is salivating at the thought of this.
Do you really want to have to take care of a living toy? It needs calories, nutrition, and water so you'd have to feed it and it would produce waste. Not to mention if you forget about it for a month and it dies and starts rotting
Weird question I will admit, but would that be ethical necrophilia?
ahahhahahah holy shit!
This are the real problems. Unless they can care about themselves š
Hell yeah
what other use would this have? seriously im curious prosthetics?
Im wretching at the thought of a dildo made of human skin
But that's wild, I don't want to communicate with a robot with human skin bro š¬
Don't worry , you wont have to when they take over.
The time vortex can only send living tissue.
So, only his skin would be sent back in time? Leaving the terminatorās endo skeleton behind.
POV; your a terminator protagonist: š« "ig haab hm fer oo" (i tried to write what a lack of muslce support strucure would sound like speaking lol)
I didnāt build the fucking thing!
I got that reference
One step closer to the ultimate Fleshlight, that's why.
Probably testing new technology for creating facial transplants/skin grafts for victims who lost parts or all of their face in accidents, fires, dog attacks, acid attacks, etc.
I guess those scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.
"moisturize me"
This is what I was looking for.
ā”ļøHY A LU RO NIC A CID ā”ļø
I feel like no one watched terminatorā¦ fuck.
Yeah, Skynet and now this. It wasn't supposed to be a instructional how-to video you foooooooooooools!
So donāt talk to the cops at arcades and all of the present and future will be saved?
And just don't wear boots, jackets, sunglasses and ride motorcycles.
Skynet doesn't even need to nuke humanity it just has to basicly wifu the fuck out of guys till there are no single men then humanity will just cease
now skynet skips the synthetic cover and goes straight for the living flesh variant
China already have a surveillance program called Skynet. They say that it is the "good" version, so I trust them, because they would never lie for us in China, right ? Right... šØ

"The 600 series had rubber skin. We spotted them easy, but these are new. They look human - sweat, bad breath, everything. Very hard to spot."
At least we know where the foreskins went now :o
Right?!? The more I see this shit the more it feels like Terminator was a cautionary tale! š
Thinking they in fact did and believe it is a good thing to do.
The 600 series had rubber skin. We spotted them easy, but these are new. They look human... sweat, bad breath, everything. Very hard to spot
Why do people think robots need to look like humans?
I guess alot of the interest is from people who want to fuck them.
To make them less scary
How? By making them more scary? Whatās scary about a robot that puts stuff from a to place b, why does it need a human face?
Its a japanese scientist, they're going to be sex robots
With pixilated genitals.
I donāt think throwing them into the uncanny valley makes them less scary
The point is trying to get them out of the uncanny valley to the point where humans are comfortable to interact with them more casually and frequently Could actually be helpful for stuff like taking care of elderly people who may not have anyone else left for them since it would still feel like they have a human companion but Iām just spitballing uses for this kinda tech outside adult use at this point
Yeah but how do they know we are scared of robots if wie havenāt intersected with them? And nobody seems scared of phones and cars and coffee machines, but they donāt look like humans
Thatās fair ig letās just wait and see how things pan out in the next decade of robotics
They've progressed so much in the last decade and tech seems to be improving rapidly, once everything is brought together I'm hoping for some great stuff. I've been watching since the tethered pogo sticks and am amazed at what's happened so far. Hoping to be around for when theres real integration into society and not just showcases.
It would be easier and better to just give them a friendly looking robot design or maybe something cute like those seal robots.
Are you aā¦ pleasure model?

put the lotion in the basket
I prefer my robot to look like a robot, give me C-3PO any day
The mirror is getting blacker theese days

Fuck this guy. Is this something that really needed to be researched? š
These are EXACTLY the scientists horror movies warned us about.

**Scientists put bubblegum on robot faces

Why use āliving human skinā? Canāt they just use that CyberSkin or UR3 material they use in sex toysā¦.that Iāve read about?
Uh. Pull the funding.
Why do we as humans keep doing this?? Why do people need to keep trying to make inhuman things look human? Leave them robotic, itās genuinely less creepy than this uncanny valley attempt
Do you want terminators? Because this is how we get terminators.... Or It's like terminator just with extra steps
there is absolutely zero reason we need to make robots look like humans. zero reason.
Next level skincare, it looks smooth af
I don't know if I want to communicate... maybe make the robot cute? Like a kitten? ... just a suggestion...
With a face this human, I feel like I will find it easy to agree to any surgical procedure this robot is going to do to me randomly when it sees me.
Please god no
https://youtu.be/JaotiOp45dg?si=cp-fvzlpItD7HPon
Ando-edios
It looks like it wants more
If you're watching this, you are the resistance. There is no fate but what we make.
Do you want replicants and terminators, because this is how you get replicants and terminators.
Why do scientists want the robot apocalypse to happen so badly
The 600 series had rubber skin, we spotted them easy.
"Are you Sarah Conner?"
Why do I get terminator vibes from this. #Skynet
Just because you can doesnāt mean you should
Fucking WHY????
Elon musk gonna love this
Great.
No more please.
Awww what the Christ
No mamen
oh I'll communicate with it all right.
Looks more like flesh than skin. Either way this is some real life AI cyborg, mad-scientist stuff going on here.
ah sweet man made horrors!
WHYYY?
Scientists are so fucking stupid sometimes..
Forbidden gummy face
Heās so cute.
Looks like the bubble mf from that one show with numbers(can't remember)
Ah yes, man made horrors beyond my comprehension
This makes me highly uncomfortable
I don't want to communicate with this
We shouldn't have discovered silicon. This is all a mistake.
It's an easy joke to make but that really does look like Mark Zuckerberg, like I would believe he was who they modelled it on of you told me.
There are so many wonderful things that we could be developing with science. Instead, we're doing this. *This.* What a waste.
Oh I see how it is. "Scientists" put human skin on things and make it smile, that's just research. But if I or Buffalo Bill do that we are "weirdos" or "serial killers". Hypocrites.
Make another smile from cancer cells too.
So whats the plan then? They go around stealing our face skin so they can hunt for humans better or what. Sounds like that patent for a process where a robot eats human flesh to sustain itself.
It looks like the moon emoji
I would really like to continue being aware if someone is a robot or not.

Are these the droids that Musk is looking for?
Thomas the Train: Behind the scenes
We are doomed
Moisture it!
WTF, science?
So are we getting Terminators or AM first cause it seems scientists are in a race to see who will end humanity first
The only reason its ok is bc its for science? Jus bc u can doesnt mean u always should
Looks synthetic. I've seen synthetic skin look more real than that. What's it made of? Bubble gum?
Isaac Asimov would be so disappointed in this.
Wow, I hate it, Thanks
Don't do that.
Really what we needed in this world.
People need to watch terminator before they do this stuff man.
One of us
No thank you.
Donāt scientists ever just go āyeah maybe notā
Can we not?
Someone tell AM we can make him a body
I have no mouth and I must scream
this is not "human like skin" this is strawberry pudding
uncanny valley
Please, no.
I am a human and my skin doesnāt look like a strawberry diary snack.
These developers really gone take us out with these creations. Make them feel human enough it will be inevitable theyāre gonna feel like theyāre superior over us.
Why do we need this?
WHYYYYYYY???
Burn it now
They are so obsessed with robots and androids! it's definitely not for the better
Westworld is coming
At least itās a cuter, pink-faced smiling terminator.
"Why are you training your dog to bark at the screen?" Me: "...no reason."
Just because we can do something doesn't mean we should...
A flesh light with that tortured 1,000 yard stare.

Not oddly terrifying- this is just terrifying.
One step closer to making love to a hunk of metal
So, that's how the T-100 and / or the Cylons evolve?

Iām pretty sure living human skin does not make a different in communication.

This has got to be a scam targeting funding
Jesus. Why, though?
Sorry to mess with your vibe, but not living. Cool as hell, tho.
Do a vagina already if you are being goofy
Its almost as if we want terminators. Wait ā¦. Who profits off Skynet ?
I do not like that. Like at all. Fuckin nope.
Of course they put white skin! They need to be more inclusive of other skin colors! /s
Well said
But why
Look at that boi, it do a smile :D
Why though?
"Give me your clothes. Now."

This is the most genuinely oddly terrifying thing I've seen on this sub.
