that's scary.

If they make a hot chick robot, it could put all women out of business.

Then we will have political unrest feminists vs. free market advocates
 
The government is eventually going to have to address the security issues of androids. Undoubtedly there will be new divisions specializing in this. It's Blade Runner at last.

I also anticipate android abuse, where jurisdictions will have to deal with people using them as substitutes for victimization. The future is going to get real interesting real fast.

He smiles like a person smiles, when they fake it. The eyes need to be engaged, to make a smile look genuine. I'm being very picky, though. Overall it's amazing.
