This is not written by AI… I mean, in a review of a ‘FamilyBot’ that comes flaunting multimodal Artificial Intelligence, you can be sure I’m going to mention AI a lot more than I would, say, in my reviews of the best gaming chairs. So, say hello to the latest learning machine to roll off the Enabot production line: the Ebo Max, a companion droid about the size of a large grapefruit or small cantaloupe, depending on your taste, that can provide your home and the people in it with security, assistance and, yes, entertainment.
To quote The Hitch-Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy: “Your plastic pal who’s fun to be with!” The concept of domestic robots has been around for a very long time, but only the advent of AI has brought us anywhere close to having a genuinely useful plastic pal who’s functional to be with.
