Not only do the kids love these weird egg-shaped robots, but apparently they also participate more in class because they feel less intimidated than by a human teacher. Even better, the robots “won’t complain about health insurance, sick leave and severance package, or leave in three months for a better-paying job!” Sounds like human teachers are soon to be obsolete, except for one thing: the robots are not autonomous. They are controlled remotely. Boo.
