The Latest: Robots rebel against their corporate masters

Cuddly robots just do not want to work for their corporate masters at the CES gadget show this year. Earlier in the day, LG's voice-activated counter-top bot CLOi experienced an early-morning hearing problem on stage. Then Sony CEO Kazuo Hirai experienced his own lack of robot love. Sony announced in November that it was reincarnating its Aibo pet dog. On Monday, Hirai braved the CES stage with what was supposed to be a working model, explaining that the dog-bot would soon become a member of the family -- at least for those lucky enough to order one.
