President Obama stood his ground in an encounter with an advanced humanoid robot in Japan over the weekend, shrugging off its threatening body language and obvious desire to destroy humanity. Obama came face to face with HRP-4C, notorious for her attempts to beguile complacent humans with a cute song and dance routine. Developed by Japan's National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), the infamous fembot was cunningly designed with a human face to fool members of our species. Meeting the droid on the sidelines of the APEC summit in Yokohama, however, Obama merely smiled when she defiantly raised her large man hands. He lavished attention on Paro, a therapeutic robot seal also developed by AIST.
