The Japanese have developed a robot head that reacts with facial expressions when it hears words from a database. Of course, the programmers teach the robot how to react and what facial expressions are appropriate. For example, when they type in the word “President” the robot head grimaces in fear and panic because, as the programmer explains, it has been taught to associate that with the words “Bush,” “Iraq” and “war.” Sort of the like the mainstream media tries to teach us all, with some success I might add, to react with grimaces and fear when we hear and read certain words, like “freedom,” “responsibility,” “national defense,” “school choice,” “private property,” “low taxes,” and “choose life.”
