But there is a warning on the website that language skills are still developing (don't know if that implies some artificial intelligence so the robot will learn along the way) and sometimes won't recognize what you're saying and respond with nonsense. But it sounds as it at times you could have a conversation. It will be interesting to hear stories from people who've given it rides.Donna Jankehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16654611289969837061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5795725678398075458.post-90495975203995538862014-08-01T18:54:29.691-05:002014-08-01T18:54:29.691-05:00Thx for alerting us to the roaming bot, Donna.
