Question

14．Whether in the home or the workplace，social robots are going to become a lot more common in the next few years．Social robots are about to bring technology to the everyday world in a more humanized way，said Cynthia Breazeal，chief scientist at the robot company Jibo．
While household robots today do the normal housework，social robots will be much more like companions than mere tools．For example，these robots will be able to distinguish when someone is happy or sad．This allows them to respond more appropriately to the user．
Social robots are not just finding their way into the home．They have potential applications in everything from education to health care and are already finding their way into some of these spaces．
Fellow Robots is one company bringing social robots to the market．The company's"Oshbot"robot is built to assist customers in a store，which can help the customers find items and help guide them to the product's location in the store．It can also speak different languages and make recommendations for different items based on what the customer is shopping for．
The more interaction the robot has with humans，the more it learns．But Oshbot，like other social robots，is not intended to replace workers，but to work with other employees．"We have technologies to train social robots to do things not for us，but with us，"said Breazeal．
