CARPI, Italy — The older woman asked to hear a story. “An excellent choice,” answered the small robot, reclined like a nonchalant professor atop the classroom’s desk, instructing her to listen closely. She leaned in, her wizened forehead almost touching the smooth plastic head. “Once upon a time,” the robot began a brief tale, and when it finished asked her what job the protagonist had. “Shepherd,” Bona Poli, 85, responded meekly. The robot didn’t hear so well.
Comment on Who will take care of Italy’s older people? Robots, maybe.
