Professor Hiroshi Ishiguro of Osaka University stands beside Repliee Q1expo during the Prototype Robot Exhibition at Aichi World Expo in Nagakute, central Japan, Thursday, June 9, 2005. This humanoid robot, that is covered in a skin-like substance and moves its mouth and shifts its torso as though it's breathing, sits in booths to work as a tour guide for visitors at the expo. 'When a robot looks too much like the real thing, it's creepy,' Repliee Q1expo developer Ishiguro said. 'But if they resemble human beings, it also makes communication easier.'

C'mon, CNN, Fox, etc. don't hire reporters; they hire entertainers, or infotainers, if you prefer. Or robots...She'd fit right in...
