This is a robot modeled after the Japanese character Astro Boy. Even though Zeno looks like an anime character and has no body the robots facial expressions, ability to make eye contact, and facial recognition is enough to get me weirded out.
Quite Cool
I like the little guy. Seems harmless enough. For now.
Definitely midway down into the uncanny valley. He will lead the first strike. Then come the humanoids. There will be many copies…
I like how they gave it some unemotional eyebrows. it is the only thing that really doesnt change on the face
I love the “uncanny valley” – what an amazing description for something that is really hard to put into words. Half the time I was watching the video I wanted to hang out with that thing, and the other half I wanted to hit it with a hammer.
