    Those Lovots are beyond adorable 🥰🥰 if they ever reach the European market, I'll definitely purchase one, for I cannot keep pets myself for several reasons, and yet I'm still longing for some sort of life-like company that I can express myself to ☺ plus, unlike most pets, Lovot are very likely pretty low-maintenance, so cleaning will very likely stay the same as how I currently live (solitarily).

    As a kid I would have absolutely loved one of these 😍 the technology behind it is so amazing! I do think that these would be great for an elderly person. Let’s say someone is at an age where they cannot care for an animal properly (but they love animals), they could provide so much comfort and company! It is kind of sad that there is a demand for an AI like this, but it could really help someone. Loved this video Kelly ❤️

    A side benefit for older people that live alone -- Functionality could be put in place where a given Lovot could contact a family member wirelessly if their chosen human was not seen or interacted with them after a set time. Sort of a "Please come check on " or even let a neighbor know to visit.

    • @greghelton4668
      @greghelton4668 4 роки тому +6

      Linklex7 I’m in agreement with you. When I say sad I’m being sympathetic because many of the people who rely on a relationship with a robot are young. The relationship is purely for emotional purposes. So many young people seem lost nowadays.
      The robots could be used for psychological and medical purposes with the older folks. They would made a wonderful tool to collect data to advance studies related to mental aging.

    • @internetguru4737

      What’s sad about it? Young people like myself simply find a better investment of time bathing in valuable information that the internet has to offer, compared to just cold-talk so called “discussions” that is nothing more than people talking about themself’s and life situation that no one gives a crap about anyways.

    THAT'S SO COOL!!!! We really live in the future. I love tech, and stuff like this always excites me. I'd really consider getting something like this since I live in Los Angeles and the majority of the apartments here are not pet friendly. Plus given my work schedule and career priorities I know I'm not at the best place to be a good dog dad right now. This is seriously so cool!
    Keep up the great work with this channel and your life in Japan. You're inspiring and you're really helping me to not give up on my dream of moving to/working in Japan one day. It's always been a dream of mine but got pushed to the side the older I got and the more my career started to progress (I'm 29). Always rooting for you and your happiness! :)

    I think if this were promoted as to combat loneliness it would put people off. There's still a stigma around feeling lonely and admitting to it, so I'd personally be worried I'd look desperate buying one, which could add to feelings of withdrawal and loneliness.

    • @rhianl6026
      @rhianl6026 4 роки тому +9

Plenty of people are comfortable admitting the reality that they feel lonely sometimes , and that a little robot like this would be cool and fun to have around!

    At first it may seem weird or not for good. But it is no difference than the lonely person watching ours of movies on TV or a person trying to find interaction on line. I also wonder what societies and cultures this would be accepted. Japan probably yes as you said at the first of the video. I can see potential for abuse in many ways. Bottom line is it healthy? Does it create dependency? What are the unintended problems this could create? Lots of questions. I've heard of technology that helped and taught people how to interact with others. But that technology was a way of teaching and an intermediate solution, not a permanent fix. Great video.
