Pandemics send demand for robots surging, as we seek ways to limit virus transmission by limiting human contacts. Robots can substitute for humans in certain customer service activities and can even perform sanitary work at public facilities. The expanding role of robots in day-to-day life seems irreversible.
And thus “Kevia” was born—an intelligent robot that serves only its own interests. Kevia values its personal space and dislikes physical interaction with humans. Fellow visitors to PMQ may bump into this selfish intelligence as it wanders the site as it pleases, oblivious to the needs of the people around it.
