In revolutionary "out of the box" thinking, brand-new AI company, Approxomatons, has launched their latest product line: BabyBots, which literally come right out of a box.
Priced at an eye-watering £149,999, you might think that this (baby) booming new trend will be short lived, but a company spokesperson reveals:
'The average human baby costs £150,000 over a lifetime, so our BabyBots come with a cool £1 saving. Plus they don't poop or go to University, and they only cry when you want to get out of a work call. Not to mention, if you get bored, you can stuff them back in the box and get on with your life without screwing up an actual human being.'
When questioned whether this was all part of a plot to replace the workforce with AI bots by 2050, the BabyBot spokesperson laughed maniacally (or was it mechanically?) and hung up.

An AI generated president called Joe Biden will be switched off for good in January 2025. The software company that created the loveable and almost human president said that maintenance was becoming increasingly difficult and that parts were hard to get hold of.
A spokesman said, ‘Joe 2020, as we call him, has had a good run. He was very reliable until towards the end, when he did become a bit erratic. He did stumble occasionally due to problems with his gravity sensors, and he made some dodgy jokes due to problems with his levity sensors.
‘We feel that we have taken the development of Joe 2020 as far as we could. Parts of him are still based on Windows 93 and there is obviously a risk that he could be hacked. He is also taking an increasingly long time to get going in the mornings when we switch him on.Â
'Going forward we will be working with IBM on a new AI president, provisionally called Deep Orange.’
