Researchers working at the forefront of digital technology believe they may have finally made the long-awaited breakthrough in the search for so-called ‘Artificial Stupidity’.
Wow, who would want to be stupid???

Yesterday they finally unveiled the domestic computerised robot ‘Kevin’ who is so stupid that every day its owner will experience a wonderful life-affirming sense of their own human superiority. ‘You tell it to open the door and it pulls the door into it’s own face.’

I think it is pretty sad you need a robot to make you feel smarter. And I am sensing that this is what it is for. They feel that they are improving the quality of life by making a stupid robot.
