I saw a Daily Mail article on a "Tedroy" bot and would like to humbly
submit that the vast, immediate market for this type of bot is the
national and local news media. Imagine selling a set of 3 bots, one a
distinguished middle ager, one a 30-something bloke, and one an
attractive female. The station now has its news, Sports, and weather
anchors, capable of voicing pre-written scripts for the news broadcasts
at a small fraction of the cost of hiring good looking airheads to do
the job. Monologues can be written by student interns who can show
competency in basic spelling and grammar and even better, the whole show
can be pre-run to insure no glaring errors. The kidnapping of the Queen
by aliens from outer space will be reported with the same calm reserve
as the auto crash on the freeway.
Later they can move up to running them for city council or higher office
with a committee of party hacks deciding on what they say. I look forward
to seeing an aspiring pol speak for 30 minutes without saying anything.
Oh wait, we have that now. Not only that, but a bot is running for Mayor of Tokyo. These bots thus, are a shoe-in for whatever
office a committee wishes to anonymously hold.
What do you think?

I'll bet they are smarter than most pols and talking heads.....
Since they can't say anything that the committee doesn't let them say and they never get off message, they're that much more likely to get elected.
