There have been many personal assistant robots invented in the past year, and this one is my favorite. It's small, unlike other models that are shown to take up at least 2 ft of space and rolls around the ground. This little guy is capable of reminding you of your daily tasks, helping you take pictures and capture videos, without having the sort of daunting amount of control given to other models where they have access to lighting, and security controls of the house. Robohon seems less creepy and more cute since it's small, moves slowly, and requires more consent from the owner to do things unlike other models which have more freedom in what they do (can roam the house and interact with whomever). Though I like this model more than others, I'm still wary about purchasing a mobile AI. The main reason why Robohon is my favorite is that I believe that of all models, if this personal assistant phone went "rogue," it could do the least damage because it's small, can only travel on flat surfaces, and is given less control in general where it generally asks before doing. Hmm, maybe I'm just paranoid about the whole Terminator, AI take over, sort of thing? Would you think about purchasing Robohon?
