"Google is doing this reluctantly, so they'll do it as cheaply as possible containing the cost," Rob Enderle, principal at the Enderle Group, told the E-Commerce Times. "They'll find it annoying, but the cost shouldn't be material until the EU decides they aren't doing enough...
Either way, Kodomoroid and Otonaroid are "a big step towards autonomous human androids," Rob Enderle, principal analyst with Enderle Group, told TechNewsWorld.
