“Giving robots more responsibility to care for people in the twilight of their lives may seem like a dystopian prospect, but many see it as an inevitability.”
From The New York Times
When I saw an article entitled “Meet Zora, The Robot Caregiver,” in the New York Times I wasn’t sure whether to be terrified or comforted. There is a somewhat disturbing image of an elderly woman cradling Zora like a baby. Yet I believe that Zora and her ilk may be better than no caregiver at all.
