Meet Jibo. Amazon sells... "him"... for five hundred dollars. According to the description

Jibo is always learning from his daily experiences, and discovering how our world works. He gets to know you better and better over time.

He asks you questions (interrogates you) to find out more about you. "He" is specially designed to better understand your network of friends and be a "seamless part of your social life."

Jibo won’t just sit around waiting for commands. He’ll ask you questions, make suggestions, and even tell jokes. He’ll continue to find new ways to surprise you.

Jibo will recognize you by your voice and face, and he loves making personal connections with the people he knows. And yes, he can be a little awkward… just like the rest of us.

Using our voice and face recognition technologies, Jibo can remember each person he knows and even identify them by name. With our Natural Language Understanding technologies, he can recognize speech patterns and tone, and our perception systems allows Jibo to know when you're talking to him, and he'll turn your way to listen and speak. Jibo is also proactive and playful -- he might say hello when he sees you and is known to offer up a fun fact or joke -- and loves to dance. Our advanced animation system and algorithms work with the hardware to create Jibo's unique 360-degree movements and allow Jibo to express himself and showcase his personality in both voice and action.
