A British company is actually offering around €115,000 to provide your face for a robot.

The whole thing sounds a bit scary, but it's not fake! It's about the company Geomiq, which is supposed to co-develop a humanoid robot. This company has published a very unusual tender.

The company was asked if it could help him complete a state-of-the-art humanoid robot. However, Geomiq is not disclosing any further details at this time.

But what you learn from them: It's about a friendly and polite-looking face, which will be the face of the robots in the series if they go into production. That would mean: If this really happens, the facial “creator” would see himself on a series of machine people.

Why a robot with a face?

This use is compensated with £100,000, which is currently around €115,000. Geomiq explains in part why a human face should adorn the robots: The purpose is that they should serve as “virtual friends” for older people.

Anyone who wants the money and meets the criteria can apply to Geomiq. The email address is at the end of the blog article with the advertisement. Click here for the blog article “PUBLIC APPEAL: APPLICANTS NEEDED TO FIND FACE OF NEW LINE OF ROBOTS”

This challenge for humanity has also been recognized at EU level. There are already special working groups dealing with the topic . There is already a proposal for how to best shape the future lives of people, artificial intelligence and robots.
