“$60 for a 30-minute session and $120 for an hour-long session.”
I enjoy a good massage, but that’s double the human rate.
That price isn’t bad. A lot of places where I live are more expensive than that. At least you don’t have to tip the robot.
Give it a year or two and they’ll add a way for the robot to guilt trip you into some kind of “donation”
Wait. Massages are cheap?
Eh. In the states I’ve never paid $60 for an hour. $80-$100 for an hour is more common.
Depending on where you go here, $60 to $70 an hour, tipping is extra.
AI massage bot… Oh God.
Is my coffee machine AI if I add a camera on it that detects movement and makes coffee if its me?
Someone give me a blockchain cryptocurrency massage bot.
When Jeanine has a spasm, though, she’s probably not going to dislocate or break something.
One of my favorite parts of a massage is fully relaxing and almost just detaching from my brain and trusting that this pro touching me knows what they are doing.
I don’t think I’d be able to relax with a robot rubbing me like that. It needs to have enough strength to do the work, which almost certainly means it can hurt me. Hard pass.
For others though, it might be easier to trust a robot than a human.
Yeah, I don’t trust that style of robot. Unless I’m mistaken, that’s an industrial grade robot meant for things like manufacturing lines. It’s not designed to be operated on/near humans. I would bet it has enough power in its joints to kill or severely maim a person.
Machines doing these sorts of operations on humans either need ludicrous safety measures, (like you would find on million dollar medical machinery,) or compliance engineering so that even if the machine malfunctions no harm is likely. I highly doubt their off the shelf machine has been modified in either way to make it truly safe.
What’s the inverse of this WKUK sketch?
I love finding WKUK in the wild. It’s important to continue spreading their seed.
