home-made scarlett johansson robot
This home-made Scarlett Johansson robot is nightmare fuel
What you're seeing here is not a professionally made piece of robotics to be used in an upcoming Hollywood movie, nor is it a detailed prop used to showcase some new AI program. This is a home-made robot, built from scratch, by a Hong Kong man over the last year and a half. It is clearly made to resemble the actress Scarlett Johansson, even though the maker won't directly say so, something that only contributes to the fact that it is creepy as hell. It features limited movement abilities, and can speak using canned phrases (with a voice that definitely does not resemble Johansson's). And in case you're wondering, no, the humanoid robot was not built to meet, ahem, personal needs.
