AI, like gosy's, is very 21st century-
those longing for long ago simpler days no doubt simply cannot believe that personal companion robots, like the carebot, could possibly enable grandma to stay out of a nursing home.
one civilizations tech is the old generations' "magic," and hee haw that any "new" tech is not needed or possible or the inventor is insane or no one can afford it or something else will work just as good.
AI like gosy's is just way too advanced for most folks to believe such is possible.
sort of like, "if man was meant to fly, God would have given man wings." we need this new home appliance so we can take better care of our families. refrigerators,
electric stoves, microwaves, etc. are all wonderful time and labor saving home appliances.
