    А мышей и крыс он сможет выловить в темном подвале при температуре -10?? Или хотя бы прибить их лазером или пулей и вытащить из помещения, что бы не запахло?? Тогда это бесполезный кусок пластика напичканный электроникой

    I don’t think robot pets is a replacement for a real pet. But robotic animals can be good for those who lives in houses where no animals are allowed or elderly people who have difficulties taking care of a real animal or those who suffer from allergies.

Social entrepreneur Van Jones believes a new human civilization is being born in real time — and that our technology is racing ahead of our wisdom. In this urgent and hopeful talk, he reframes the AI debate, showing why the real danger isn’t the technology itself but rather the communities it leaves behind. His solution? A new deal between big tech and humanity, built on a different kind of “AI” that we desperately need. (Recorded at TED2026 on April 17, 2026)
