Why the hell does this need to have an anthropomorphic body?

The hands are so it can do sperm samples

And prostate exams.

Often at the same time!

See, that design isnt very human. I do like the grips though, that feels important.

It really, really didn't need to look like a person. Not even a little bit.

Is β€œnone” an animal?

[–] herrvogel@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Nobody said it has to be an animal. It could also be a plant. Or an upscaled model of a prokaryote.

As long as it has a gaping hole and a look of vague recognitioning of something's a little off asking "but.... Why?"

Well it's a robot. Duh. This is what robots look like.

I wonder if the helmet visor is functional.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I have been told its FULLY functional.

Settle down Dr Soong, let’s get those ethical subroutines ironed out first.

They're going to wonder why the face gets sprayed so often...

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 3 points 3 days ago

Has anyone confirmed it's not a person in a costume? πŸ‘€

I really hope it has nice and distinguished buttocks, like really caked up, a real piss storage unit back there with an extra wheel just to support each cheek.

Taiwan makes everything anthropomorphic! They’ve got an anthropomorphic version of the mass damper on top of the Taipei 101:

They probably could’ve just made a mascot version of this robot but… eh.
