US teachers criticize new robot colleague introduced in New York school

American teachers have criticized a new robot colleague being introduced into a school in New York, according to The Guardian. They described it as 'inappropriate' and 'creepy.' Educators noted that Sally (the robot's name) will record students' voices, collect their data, and replace live interaction with teachers. Moreover, the company that produced it acquired a firm known for manufacturing realistic sex dolls. The humanoid was purchased by the Cattaraugus school district for $57,000. Sally will be introduced in high school classrooms.
