The invention: A robot that goes to meetings for you.
Not telepresence. Tele-absence.
Changing the world: In addition to freeing up a crapload of time… this will prevent a ginormous number of needless conflicts.
If you hadn’t been at the meeting, you wouldn’t have responded to your colleague’s idiotic comment, and we’d all be better off, right?
Getting rich: Obviously, everybody needs one.
My adventures creating this guy are chronicled here.
