If I had known that going to MIT would get me to where I could build freaking ROBOTS to play in my band, I wouldn't have hesitated to apply there! I know those German guys have a lot of time on their hands when they're not trying to talk over the world, but this is a little crazy.
Robots may dream of electric sheep, but men dream of the perfect robot girlfriend. A woman who fits that perfect physical and mental ideal. Plus a robot woman just sounds easier to deal with.
