The Bill Clinton model would have to kneel.
but not stand.(/s)
Seriously, If I could have a competent Robot receptionist which would not offend the clients it would be worth it IF it was less expensive than an employee. I could eliminate the "PC" and sue happy employee for the machine who will do "her" job and not have to worry about the boyfriend, daycare, husband, mother, father, or any other human baggage. And "she" will not throw a hissy fit getting coffee for you and the clients.
It is just a question of where can a human shapped robot/androd be used(save the dirty comments folks)?
Without the dirty comments, this is a good concept.
