A better world

“How do you like my new computer?”

“Show me …”

“It is on the table. One can illuminate any part to act as a screen. It doubles up as a robot, and moves on appropriate instructions. It is smarter than a human assistant.”

“You look excited about your new acquisition.”

“Well, aren’t you?”

“Can you make it smile?”

“I can change the mask, and program emotions. But why is it needed?”

“To me, it looks like a captive alien, who lost the battle. Why not practise your programming exercise on humans who need it? We will build a better world.”
