Nov 12 2008And You Thought I Was Kidding -- Well, I Wasn't: Jules The Scary-Faced Robot Openly Discusses Destroying The Human Race

uncanny valley. i no longer judge him as a robot that's doing a good impersonation of a human. he is a human doing a terrible job at being a person.

is ALL of the robot race going to have down syndrome??

Pretty good. I thought to facial movements could have a little subtler. Fitting he has an english accent though, far more menacing that way.

Kill all the robots!!! Except the the hot-chick-sex-bot ones, those can stay around.

pew

Jerky head movements and minimal articulation in the mouth, and this is supposed to be cutting edge? Looks like something from a Disney theme park ride to me...

FAKE!!!

This is an obvious photoshop job. You can tell its fake because the shadows are all wrong.

While the critics said the character of Max in the movie was a bit stiffly portrayed, this scene from the movie Never Back Down isn't actually acted by a robot.

I second the sex-bots. More of them, less need for nukes.

I love the subtle scientist humor. It's a lot like british humor, except less funny and creepier (yes, it is possible).

Uh.
firstly what the hell is with the creepy british accent?
secondly, WHY!?

What I want to know is, who the F cuts this robot's hair? that is a really bad haircut!

Needs a tongue, if it had that then everything would look a whole lot better

who put the freakin alien worm in this guys forehead? it keeps getting ready to burst out between his eyes and eat my face off.

The Mighty Musnud is right this looks like something from the pirates of the caribbean ride. And that oppened in 67

I'm YOURAYNUS and I feel that everyone here should be nice to Youraynus...for reasons that I promise not to elaborate upon.

This has been a public service annoyance

Is this real life Oblivion?

Wow, good thing the camera zoomed out, because we all thought it was a real human!

BTW, he only has 3 facial expressions.

It sounds like Seth Green provided the crappy accent for him.

The people at MIT have lost their f***in' minds, eh!

Matey, this dumb rubbish thing needs to be stomped on.

Bloody robots. It's not even funny anymore!

If this is the best the robot armageddon has to offer I think we're gonna be just fine... that thing doesn't even have a body! Unless it can fly around and shoot lasers from that weird lump in his forehead I'm not too concerned.

they should hire this thing to replace daniel radcliffe in HP, it acts better than him!

2012?

PEW PEW PEW

All it's missing is a hat. Then it will look like a real life Hue-Mon.

I am from the planet Uranus, the third-largest and fourth-most massive planet in our solar system.

So you can say that I'm Youraynus, and you can say i'm from Uranus,.........but you can't pick your friend's nose.

I've seen better actin' in tough-actin' Tinactin

Time to arm up before government takes away your guns. I got my Sig Sauer P228 and my Walther P99 ready to take on all comers.
It's time to show these robots and their nerd creators who's BOSS!
**UPDATE**: Now seeking applicants for the following open positions: Flamethrower, Sniper, and Rocket Launcher personnel.

Fake or not that's creepy.

If that's real I'm Batman. While that thing doesn't have teeth everything will be just fine...

I'd punt that thing off the edge of the Grand Canyon, into the Colorado River. Where's the battery cavity?

Well I for one will remain unprepared for the robot subjugation of the human race: My douche-bag roommates are downloading movies again, and its going to take ~10 min. to "stream" a minute and a half of low-res video from YouTube. I guess I'll go read a book or something.

and I thought the Amy Winehouse waxwork was scary - this takes the freakin' bsicuit!

crazy shit

creepy as f***.

Fake, the robot uses ordinary language and varied pitch. If it was pre-programmed this would not be possible. Shitty voice over from some uni-student.

@ 27

Careful what you say, you dont wanna be sued by a Turkish city of the same name

C'mon, the robot's just trying to help humanity, someone let it watch iRobot one too many times... Now it's dreaming...

is it me or does it sound like Harry Potter
Make it say "I am Gay" or something....

Sexbots? Yeah, right. You'll be in the throes of passion when the code is broadcast and then suddenly you'll be crushed by 30 ton hydraulic legs.

This robot head is primitive but it's a helluva lot closer than before. We are building the future. Probably not our future.

Would the sex be good up unto the leg crushing tho???

I don't see credit for me in there, I sent that to you several weeks ago. get on the ball, GW!

"it's times like this that I'm thankful I'm just a head."

@42

Anti-Clown blogs are really bad about credits. They have given me credit once, but have totally based larger posts on a submission or two w/o credit. Odd since their posts have been off topic to the blogs lately or about a day or two behind the meme.

Then again, I really don't give a crap anymore. I check in out of habit and don't really read the content like I used to. It's kinda become repetitive and the comments sections have gotten lamer. No wonder Wired declared blogs dead. But I can see how it would be frustrating for loyal readers.

Oh well.

me and the robot=killing spree buddies. YAY TO KILLING RANDOM PEOPLE!!!!
but seriously if he tries to kill me ill pull the plug or rip his batteries off or something

why helloooooo there earthlings

i love men!!!! and i love elephants!!!

im am engaged to my computer and my left kidney

we have many livers together

lol whattt
researchers rarely shower
whales
im so confused
haha carbon footprints of man saving the world
ahhh

It was a voice over. Robot programmed to make the facial expressions, but there are no voice synthesizers that produce the type of embedded emotion that the speaker made.

Funny though, in a dry sort of way.

looks vaguely like a young wil wheaton

Not everything hails from the USA... this was in Bristol Robotics Lab. That's the Bristol in the UK. Hence whoever did the voiceover had a brit accent.

given the fact that this robot head doesn't know the usage of the words less and fewer, i feel safe that i am smarter than it and could still defeat it in a battle of wits.

did anyone else notice that zit on the middle of his forehead keep popping up and then it dissapears... thats eirie..

Character is the first and last word in the success circle.
