#8: David Hanson: Robots that "show emotion".

What do you take away from this video?
The speaker talks about allowing the robot to have emphany. I don't like this video because I think that he is sucessing way too fast and thinking that robots are almost able to have as much emphanty and as much human emotions as any human. These robots also remember who people are in the perception of people and the natural emotions that allow humans to interact with each other. They also sell these robots to kids in animated forms. This matters because it's a very scary fact and I take away that the world is moving way too fast.
What are the speaker's presentation styles?
The speaker's presentation styles include being very monotone and moving around a lot which makes it hard to focus on the topic he is talking about.
What are the speaker's effective speaking techniques?
The speaker's effective speaking techniques are his ability to inspire the audience on his life's work b y being excited about his work, however the monotone voice is never completely exciting.
What matters from this video (Personal, Education, World)?
Many things matter from this video. Personally I think that the world and these robots are moving way to fast, when at this point they are able to create robots that "think they are human" and can interact with humans the way thatr humans interact with each other. It's very scary to the world and education because we never know what will happen in the future; In twenty or so years will the technology be so advanced that we won't know whether or  not we are talking to a robot or a person?
