One Toyota research center where I worked had robots that would go around the office and propose Snack to people.

- BrandiATMuhkuh 2mo agohaha how cool. Not sure if I’m out of touch (not doing robotics right now) or if things just slowed down. Back in ~2013 it looked like humanoid robots were just around the corner. Boston Dynamics became a hit. Aldebaran’s Pepper was presented. And the DARPA Robotics Challenge was on everyone’s lips. And then suddenly, nothing.
