ROBOTS which can listen, learn and react to people are being introduced in care homes to help look after residents and prevent loneliness.

Can ROBOTS take care of the elderly?

They will take the strain off overburdened care workers and as they get to know their charges will adapt their conversations to subjects of interest to them.

A £2.5million EU-funded trial in partnership with the University of Bedfordshire and Advinia Health Care, one of the UK’s largest care providers, will be launched in September.

The Japanese are already doing it and their elderly prefer robots to Third Worlders taking care of them.

Good old monoracial Japan -- hope they know how good they've got it. But it's a very, very bad sign when robots start eating up the rest of the job mkt.
