When employees come to HR with fears that their jobs will be eliminated, one reason is that automation will replace them.
Scientists are developing robots that have more and more human abilities.
The latest: Robots can now pose like fashion models.
The Robot Research Institute in Japan has found a way to give our mechanical replacements the ability to “strike a pose.”
The Institute hopes the robots will be used in modeling and other promotional events after their metal frames are fitted with polyethylene sheets to give them a more human look.
The robot’s movements can be controlled by cell phone.
