Japanese robot disobeys humans
Panasonic, the Japanese company, has introduced a home robot named "Nickobo" that does not obey commands or provide practical services. Instead, it was designed to be a human companion, exhibiting unpredictable behaviors that mimic living creatures. The robot weighs 1.5 kilograms and is priced at 60,500 yen, with a monthly subscription fee of 1,100 yen. More than 10,000 units had been sold by March 2026. "Nickobo" relies on sensors and cloud artificial intelligence to recognize human words and expressions, but it behaves randomly and displays unpredictable actions, resembling "an ever-forever child." The project aims to explore human-robot interaction when the robot acts unpredictably, reflecting a Japanese cultural perspective that considers robots as companions rather than mere task-performing tools. Panasonic plans to add more language capabilities to enhance the robot's interaction with humans, focusing on understanding behaviors rather than making it smarter at performing tasks.
