Letter: Waitress robot was a bit much

Published 22 January 2025

From Jo Howard, St Ives, Cornwall, UK

When I saw the image of the server robot in a dress, with a feminine chest, I assumed its appearance would be addressed. In particular, the sexist practice of casting obviously female robots in subservient roles. But it wasn’t. I hope the modestly covered chest hides a pair of fembot boob missiles – she may need them (28 December 2024, p 9).
