Creepy Hospital Droid Takes to the Stage

[lacktheknack]

It's a gimmick, but ultimately, it's the human quirks that make actors worth watching.

 

[MrBrightside919]

That is probably the creepiest thing i've ever seen in my life...

We are just one step closer to Skynet and Judgment day...

I know, that's why I'm taking sides with our friends them japs

while we're closer to Terminator and Skynet, they're closer to Gundam Wing and Escaflowne ^-^

(and Metal Gear Rex, but I digress)

Or maybe skynet controlled gundams...

We...are...f*&ked

 

[Lightslei]

Oh hell no.

If I pay to see a play, I want to see humans. As long as androids don't end up on Broadway I'm fine I guess.

 

[teh_Canape]

Or maybe skynet controlled gundams...

We...are...f*&ked

that's where Rex comes in ^-^

in any case, we have the Jim Dandy Station

or, you know, the Citadel Station or the Von Braun Station...

just remember to bring a copy of Avast, in case we have some rogue AI gone nuts trying to kill us (lol rogue AI gone nuts trying to kill us, that'll never happen ^-^)

 

[Zero_ctrl]

Aha ha ha.
The android is playing an android.
That made me laugh.

And your Mr. Brightside what would the site cynic think of this news?

Well I think it is time to build my robot proof basement and stock it with everything I need to live for the next 100 years.

Japan this is more than a hobby, it has become an obsession, you need help. The world needs to intervene.

Hello there, Valley de Uncanny. It appears they're making little attempt to get all of you droids out of there before foisting you on the public. Wouldn't it be ironic, or rather... "uncanny" if that is what makes them rebel?

What if Avast becomes self aware?!?!?!

 

[mr_rubino]

And I still want to know if you can fuck it.

Half of you are wondering; don't deny it.

No, dammit! Haven't you read/watched any sci-fi since ever? The number one thing you should never do is have sex with it!

[vaderaider]

That thing creeps me out.
Well I guess it's slightly more human than npcs on Oblivion.

 

[E-Penguin]

Robots pretending to be humans... trying to act like humans...

Erm...

...

People, we're fucked.

She(?) can't walk, though.


At least not YET.

 

[MasterSplinter]

Robot's that do exactly what the director tells them are the director's dream. But what happens when they invent robot directors too?

Boring movies?

 

[Romidude]

Why Japan? Why must you make three pointless and silly things in two days for me to whine about?

 

[The Mehster]

Japan is weird.

 

[Evilsanta]

Quite uncanny indeed but still quite cool. Cant they focus on mechs instead of androids.

I want my Gundams!

Hirata said that robots could actually be better on stage than humans, because you could cherry pick the best techniques and movements from different actors and program them all in.

Who the fuck would think of this. That's just terrifying, it's like he wants to rip our humanity away.

Umm... Robots can not improvise, that would make them horrible actor. I have acted a quite bit and all I can say acts never go as planned. SO lets say the human actor does small mistake, robot can't work around it. (yeah advanced AI, yeah whatever, try to code it and then come back here). And the reason why theater is fun is because people see actors reacting to other actors actions. Impulse > Reaction > script
