Robots' "personality".


Korean scientists have created the world's first "artificial species" - a robot with genes that it can pass on to other robots.

Professor Kim Jong-Hwan, already known as the creator of "robot football", has developed 14 artificial chromosomes that he says will determine robots' "personality".

He believes that within 20 years lonely people will use their personal robots to keep them company, replacing cats and dogs.

"If you come back to your home after work, the robot will greet you and you can talk to him like a friend," he said.

"For example, a senior person who is living alone might feel loneliness. If they use their pet robot, they will feel more comfortable."

Dr Kim is in New Zealand as the keynote speaker at the second international conference on "autonomous robots and agents".
