Robots Pretending to be Kids are Way Creepier than Kids Pretending to be Robots

God bless the Japanese for creating yet another human android that will forever give you nightmares.

First there was Aiko, the fembot famous for her hilarious one-liners, and now there’s Repliee R-1, a life-like robogirl created by the Tsukuba University’s boffins.

Reepliee R-1 is fitted with felible silicon skin, a pair of the most adorable swollen eye lids, and a perpetual facial expression that says “someone should murder me before I murder everyone.”

I am caught between two emotions: fear and concern. Robotics company Cyberdyne Inc announced Reepliee R-1’s mass scale production begins today! How Fantastic!

C’mon Reepliee, how ’bout a smile?
