C-3PO VS. ROSIE THE MAID: NYMag asked two experts from the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University to handicap
a boxing tournament featuring pop culture's favorite robots. Unfortunately excluded: T-1000, Dot Matrix, Twiki and Small Wonder's V.I.C.I.
Marvin would clearly depress Johnny 5 into surrendering.
ReplyDeleteWill not watch a slideshow. Do Replicants count?
ReplyDeleteI don't think it is fair that they used new cylons but old Gort. New Gort beats all comers so long as I don't have to watch Keanu interact with him. Klaatu Barada Nikto my friends.
ReplyDeleteIRON GIANT WUZ ROBBED.
ReplyDeleteHK-47 beats all comers. If only he was allowed to compete.
ReplyDeleteAre you fucking kidding me? What the hell?
ReplyDeleteSeriously, man.
ReplyDeleteI'm offended. That's robotist.
ReplyDeleteMy brother teaches the introductory artificial intelligence course at the college where he works (that's a course about AI, not for AIs) and tells me that his first lecture used to be full of pictures of HAL, the T-1000, etc., until he realized that none of his students had any idea who they were. So he had to replace them all with pictures of new Transformers and new Gort.
ReplyDeleteEr, that was me.
