Google has patented a system that allows robots to download personalities, including those of the deceased, online. 

The Daily Mail reports:

The system would allow machines to download them in a similar way to an app – and even have a different personality for each user.

The patent says that the personality could replicate the robot’s owner, ‘a deceased loved one,’ or ‘a celebrity,

Google’s patent details a cloud-based system where a personality could be downloaded to a robot, in the same way one might download an app.

‘The robot personality may also be modifiable within a base personality construct (i.e., a default-persona) to provide states or moods representing transitory conditions of happiness, fear, surprise, perplexion (e.g., the Woody Allen robot), thoughtfulness, derision (e.g., the Rodney Dangerfield robot), and so forth,’ states the patent.

Friends will even be able to clone their robots and swap aspects of its personality.

‘The personality and state may be shared with other robots so as to clone this robot within another device or devices.

‘In this manner, a user may travel to another city, and download within a robot in that city (another ‘skin’) the personality and state matching the user’s ‘home location’ robot.

‘The robot personality thereby becomes transportable or transferable.’

The firm also explains ‘This disclosure relates to a robot imbued with a personality, or personalities.

‘In particular, but without limitation, the disclosure provides for a robot that operates with personality attributes and related capabilities drawn from cloud computing capacities.

‘Personality may be thought of as personification in the sense of human characteristics or qualities attributed to a non-human thing.

‘A robot can be programmed to provide a desired look as well as interactability for the robot, which may be subject to change by the user or by the robot itself, such that the robot interface is customized to provide a desired personality for the robot.’

Google already owns several firms developing robotic technology, including Atlas, 6.2 feet of metal with a plastic body that can walk, run, jump and even open doors.

  • Google has A.I that has removed man from the top of the food chain but no one says a thing because our EU leaders just give Goolge a fine as a form of tax and then they are all freinds again.

    Should change the name to Stuxnet
