KIST & South Korea's latest smartest robot

KIST robot

Oh those South Koreans have done it now! They've got a robot they've claimed is the world's smartest, not only because it communicates wirelessly to controller servers, has visual and kinetic sensors, and talks to its human masters, but because it learns and mimics our behavior by observation (but can it multiply 9,999,999,999,999,999 by 99,999,999,998,999,999?). You know, it's very true, this robot is rather excellent at copying something: the QRIO. Okay, fine, KIST gets bonus makeup points for saying the robot looks "like a small teenager wearing a blue and grey space suit" at its launch.
