This guy should go sell this thing and become richer than Bill Gates, but he seems too emotionally attached to it.
Also this is interesting, but even better is:
"Robot Girlfriend builds Canadian Man."

He did this with about $20,000. There are teams with budgets a hundred times that coming up with roughly equivalent results.
Turns out all those grants, accolades and fellowships were never the answer to human equivalent AI. Turns out the answer is crushing loneliness.

“We may observe that the government in a civilized country is much more expensive than in a barbarous one; and when we say that one government is more expensive than another, it is the same as if we said that that one country is farther advanced in improvement than another. To say that the government is expensive and the people not oppressed is to say that the people are rich.”
Adam Smith, who must have been some kind of leftie or something. |

That guy is so asking to be killed by his creation it's not even funny.
He might as well have given it a gun in it's left arm before he started spousal-abusing it.

Anuvver fing - when they do sumfing, they try to make it look like somfink else to confuse everybody. When one of them wants to lord it over the uvvers, 'e says "I'm very speshul so'z you gotta worship me", or "I know summink wot you lot don't know, so yer better lissen good". Da funny fing is, arf of 'em believe it and da over arf don't, so 'e 'as to hit 'em all anyway or run fer it. |

And whilst you're pointing and shouting at the boogeyman in the corner, you're missing the burglar coming in through the window.
Well, Duh! Because they had a giant Mining ship. If you had a giant mining ship you would drill holes in everything too, before you'd destory it with a black hole |
