As a statue they are impressive.
But for a robot to be realistic would not have to just “look” human but also move & sound human, there lies the challenge.
Also would any one create a human looking robot (in the near–medium future) as humans (generally) don’t like to be usurped & a “human robot / android” would feed into fears of the Rise of the Machines.
OFC there is always exceptions to the rule & sex robots would be that exception.Growing old is mandatory
Growing up is optional -

Feeds human vanity much the same way that the majority of hollywood aliens have a human likeness, or how we made god and his offspring in our own image, which is the epitome of arrogance.Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.Comment
