New York State teachers are speaking out against the addition of robots in the classroom, pointing out that the company supplying them is “associated with sex dolls.”
The robot in question is an AI-powered robot named Sally, created by robotics company Realbotix. The Salamanca School District confirmed (via a report from WGRZ) that they’re soon taking delivery of one “Sally”, who they have paid $57,590 for and will be used by upperclassmen high school students.
