Something we've been trying to get going for a while now. Most discussion about the future of dolls and robotics in particular happens in Inventor's Corner.
Rubherkitty and I have been trying to make the case that there's a distinction between advice on attaching acrylic fingernails or making mods and the future of robotics.
There are many TDF members interested in where the future of dolls and robots is going, who aren't makers themselves.
Please can we have a section on the future of dolls for articles, news, ideas, societal impact, AI, advanced features, etc.?
My argument is that the future eventually dwarfs the past.
There was a time, when some small subset of the computer world was once the "smart phone" that mods on Reddit and usenet etc had to beg the admins to give them a place to share. Now there's far more to talk about with phones than laptops or desktops.
There will come a time when the topics discussed on the yet-to-be created TDF robotics forum will relegate debates over Silicone vs TPE to a quaint, but fond memory.
