Do you hate the internet yet? Do you think it’s just a cesspool where people throw out ideas willy-nilly, never really arriving at anything worthwhile, like one giant high-frequency trading exchange, where no value is added?
I’m not going to disagree with you. But shut up. They invented a robot model who sings. The HRP-4C, first unveiled last March as a part of Tokyo’s Fashion show has been implanted with Yamaha’s Vocaloid software. The robot was first invented to imitate a model going down a cat-walk, to the tune of $3 million dollars. But because that’s not ridiculous enough, they gave her a voice, and now she sings realistically. Check out the videos.
Think of it. Robot pop stars. Even though the pop stars we have are pretty robotic. Like Celine Dion. Or that Britney lady. And with the recent invasion of Autotune on every fricking song that is coming out ever, we might not even need singers. Just bands of robots. Robots won’t steal the mics from each other at awards shows, because it’s against their programming, and if they ever went against their programming, they’ll just kill us all.
I welcome the thought of civilization being overrun by robotic pop stars. But I am hungover. Also, I have no idea what she’s singing, but I’m going to assume it’s, PREPARE YOUR HEAD FOR THE CRUSHING. Only melodically.
