Implications - Consumers enjoy technological progress, but still require a human connection to it if they're to truly adapt new technological innovations and devices. These paintings demonstrate consumer desire to make robots more humanlike. Technological products with user-friendly interfaces are thus more likely to be accepted by consumers than ones that neglect this consumer desire.
