Bridging humanity and technology: one haircut at a time
Esteemed guest:
We are inviting you to join an artificial intelligence experiment.
The assimilation of technology by humanity has been our core mission. As the recent manufacturing experience of hairdresser robots has been well received, a second phase including dialogue modules will be added to provide customers with an emotional exchange during a haircut session. We are going to demonstrate two of the latest AI dialogue modules, simulating live conversations between hairdressers and customers. The experiment is scheduled for January and your participation is appreciated.
Yours sincerely,
Ideology Inc.
