JIBO!!

[Cami]

Would buy one?

 

[roguejuror]

Is that the one Snowden used?

 

[Cami]

I have no idea, but I don't think so.

 

[Cami]

Jibo just hit the media a few days ago I think, and won't actually be available until 2016.

 

[bacon]

Can it open the fridge and bring me beer?

 

[Cami]

No Bacon, that it cannot do that. You can talk with it though, and it can read you a story.

 

[bacon]

Sounds annoying.

Pass.

 

[Mudcat]

I don't even have a smart phone so JIBO is not at the top of my personal priorities list.

Interesting though.

I wonder how long before it starts wanting to kill its human overlords.

 

[Blitty]

Can it open the fridge and bring me beer?

What would camis purpose be if that was the case?

 

[bacon]

Gamelive trivia, DUH!

 

[roguejuror]

No Bacon, that it cannot do that. You can talk with it though, and it can read you a story.

I bet it won't even understand my accent.

 

[Cami]

I would think they would make it multilingual. Do smart phones understand your accent? You're accent actually isn't too bad, I don't think you'd have much of an issue, IMO.

 

[roguejuror]

siri don't get me

 

[Cami]

Really?! Siri does't get Bacon half the time either, you have to speak somewhat cleat and slow. I don't think it's your accent, as much improper English sentences. no offence. You'd think with the technology we have available these things would be multilingual.

 

[Cami]

I would very much enjoy a video of you trying to use Siri.

 

[Tron]

I have no idea, but I don't think so.

 

[bacon]

I could see punting a JIBO being pretty gratifying.

 

[Mudcat]

Rogie, are you speaking American?

Try speaking American.
