An account posing as PayPal used a paid promotion on Twitter to bait users into sharing their personal information under the guise that they were entering an end-of-year contest, The Next Web reported this week.
While we live in an increasingly connected world with so many ways to hook up with different people, you might be surprised to find out that more and more people than ever before are suffering from the malaise of loneliness. Suicide rates are up in developed countries, and one can be surrounded by family and friends and yet feel detached from it all. GROOVE X hopes that those who find it difficult to build a bridge of friendship or to love someone else will be able to overcome such obstacles with their all new companion robot known as Lovot.
Adhering to the sage advice that “A little love can change the world”, the Lovot is touted to be a home robot that will stir up the owner’s instinct to love. I suppose another way of doing so would be to obtain a pet, but then again a pet has its other drawbacks such as having to care and maintain it, clean and bathe it regularly, pick up after its poo, and sending it to the vet for its annual check-up or vaccination. Not so with a robot like the Lobot though, which will arrive loaded with advanced technology including Emotional Robotics.
Being sold as a set of 2 units, the Lovot will also feature touch sensors that are located throughout its body, in addition to a six-layered eye display, making it far different from conventional robots that are normally found in modern day households. The Lovot might not vacuum your home when you are not around, but it will definitely beg for attention and get in your way and with those who live under the same roof. When it sees people that it does not know, it will shy away from them. Meant to provide owners with a sense of relief and contentment, the Lovot hopes that owners will learn to touch and hug it in order to feel the joy of loving something.
Expect the Lovot to begin shipping in the fall or winter season next year, so if you are still lonely between now and then, perhaps it would be wise to seek out a counselor or close companion with whom you can share your life and struggles with.

It was a bittersweet memory as the Minnesota Democrat landed at the same Washington airport she arrived at as a refugee.
Entertainers such as Usher, Adam Lambert and Jason Derulo were among 13 victims identified so far.
There are a variety of voice options for users to choose from when it comes to Siri. These voices also vary from language to language, and it seems that in the case of the Hebrew version of Siri, the voice actress behind the voice, Galit Gura-Eini, is suing Apple for using her voice without her permission, which apparently has made her say undesirable things.
Now you might be wondering how could Apple use her voice without her permission when she was the one whose voice was recorded? As it turns out, Gura-Eini actually recorded her voice for Nuance back in 2007 where she gave her permission for her voice to be used for what she calls “legitimate” purposes.
Apple claims to have obtained the rights to Gura-Eini’s recordings from Nuance, which is how they managed to get Gura-Eini’s voice for Siri. For those unfamiliar with how Siri (and presumably other digital assistants) pronounces things, syllables taken from the recordings are joined through an algorithm to help form complete words and sentences. This is also Apple’s defense in the lawsuit, claiming that Gura-Eini’s is “nothing but syllables joined together by an algorithm”.
Gura-Eini claims to have asked Apple to remove her voice from Siri but has had her request denied. It seems that people have been making “her” say violent, racist, and sexual things. Her lawsuit also argues that her voice is “widely identified and associated” with her live persona, which we imagine could potentially confuse some into thinking that it is actually her who is saying these things. Gura-Eini is asking for about $66,000 in damages.
