Obviously there are tons of we-learning applications here, and this article speaks to how close companion robots are coming to reality. "Instead of death machines dragging us off to work in their plutonium mines, we'll get helpful little friends like Pepper from SoftBank and Aldebaran." But they're not quite ready for everyday use.
