We live in a world which is moving fast, extremely fast. Computers are out and about trying to replace people. This brings a question to mind, will we have a new way of companionship? People lean on other people for emotional supports. But if people just get replaced, does that mean we just have robots? Before human companions maybe get replaced, animals and pets actually, The concept of Robot toys is now coming into the market. A year from now, I strongly believe that we will see robot toys for kids and tangential concepts where people lean on robots for companionship, the type they used to lean on with their cats and dogs. And its only now possible. LLM’s allow for us to have conversations with robots. We can now “connect” and have these robots respond to our personal emotional needs. We saw companies like Sony come out with the Aibou, where they tried to create a dog 1:1 in robot form. There were many similar concepts, just ahead of their time.
