I got an article of progresson in building real robots.

sorry if this was already posted.

Robots have been around for ages, this one is just better at walking and can sort of think (very badly), but it is from 2003;)

Canada already has an Android called Aiko, which has built-in reactions.

If you search it on Youtube, you see the earliest forms of it. The official presentation of it got deleted, as I couldn't find it anymore. But it basically showed the creator talking to the Android, and the Android responding quite quickly and fluent.

Even though it couldn't walk, it was made in a guy's basement, imagine in factories.

To be honest anthropomorphic robots are a really bad idea. The human shape is not really efficient.

Perhaps. But one could argue that the 'human shape' has proven to be very efficient at producing more humans, :p
