A while back there was a Honda commercial with ASIMO and they showed a family of white people and the narrator says, "Welcome the newest member of our family" and then ASIMO comes walking along and stands with the humans.

It's pretty cool to see that technology has come so far that they can make robots that walk and we can interact (somewhat) with!
