Transhumanism editor Joe Allen is back from special assignment and ready to resume his analysis of the assault of Big Tech on Western Civilization. Today he looks at the first wave of personal robots like EliQ and Embodied Moxie.
“Transhumanist thinkers have long awaited a moment like this where the normalization of social robots means that not only do you have human beings kind of coupling their personalities and forming relationships with machines, but you have machines that are constantly watching and observing their human companions, and as they’re observing they’re learning, and as the individual robot is sending that data back to a date center, that data center is learning from all the human beings to which it is connected.”
