Hate Meetings? Meet Your New Best Friend

Meet QB. He likes people and wants to make your life easier, specifically by going to meetings on your behalf. The business world is all about getting some face time, making time in the ‘schedge’ to hammer out some logistical ‘probs’, but in reality, most people hate meetings, particularly meetings that require a long drive or plane ride. Anybots creation QB is a ‘mobile proxy robot’, participating in meetings and other business interactions normally requiring face-to-face attention. The robot is capable of moving, using a gyroscope to remain upright. With two cameras, you can watch where you’re going and still look your boss in the eye while he reams you out for incompetence and laziness. Hopefully the next version doesn’t include any kind of artificial intelligence, or you could end up competing with QB for that big promotion. Source: Ubergizmo
