Artificial intelligence is something fascinating and something scary at the same time when we think about what it is capable of. It comes in all kinds of forms, found in smartphones and other devices like robots. One such is the Musio robot from AKA, which puts a friendly face on artificial intelligence. It is a personal robot that wants to be your friend, that learns and helps with daily household chores, answering e-mails, etc.
They must he's not Baymax from The Magnificent 6, although he's destined to become your best friend, or at least pet. If you don't believe me, watch the video below. It is also not as capable as robot assistant, which the Jetsons promised us. But it is this robot Android, which you can on Indiegogo pre-order now for 90 euros, more than a great assistant, able to manage home appliances (turning off the lights, controlling the thermostat, etc.), monitor the status of your email inbox, you to remind to meetings and other obligations and educate children. In addition, it "grows" with you, because it learns from you, gets to know what you like, and thus becomes even more useful over time.
Although he is first and foremost a robot, he is as much a robot as he is a friend. He also uses his hands for, among other things sharing hugs.

Musio, which engineers have been developing for several years, is suitable for all ages. He is a character, a friend, someone you can talk to and have fun with. Since many people fear artificial intelligence, AKA wanted to show how it can be used in a friendly way. The robot has an operating system loaded Android 5.0 Lollipop, and they are available three different models– "simple", "smart" and "genius". If there will be a campaign on Indiegogo successful, they will start sending him to homes June 2016.
