Meet Milo, the virtual child
The four-year-old has been unveiled by Microsoft as the world’s first real virtual character who is convincing enough to be considered‘human’. Milo had artificial intelligence and will develop a personality through your training.
Yippie. Now adults can spend all day hanging out with a four year old. Just in passing, isn't it hilarious that with all that technology, the creator has no clue what a four year old looks like?

Milo is more like an 8 year old.
C.R.E.E.P.Y!
Lindsay just pulled up to the courthouse in her SUV. Let's see how she looks...
She probably looks HIGH. I would.
Yikes! He doesn't look or sound like a four-year-old. How can people who know enough to make something this sophisticated lack so much basic knowledge?
I'm impressed that Lindsay is actually going to jail.
Actually she didn't look that drugged up. Looked tired though.
This reminds me of those "virtual pets" that started getting popular a decade ago. Personally, I can't think of anything more boring than watching a fake kid or a fake pet.
The awful thing is, I can just see parents ignoring their real kids to watch "Milo". Did anyone else hear about that couple who let their own baby starve to death because they were taking care of their virtual family on a computer game? It was in a the news not too long ago. I think it happened in Asia somewhere.
That is just weird. Who would want a virtual child? Its like the sims. When everyone was so into building your own self. So boring and gets old quick. Maybe they can replace the gosselins children with this technology.
If he is supposed to be 4 why do they talk about homework. Even stranger.
