In the not exactly business technology department an inventor has created the love of his life–a female robot.

According to the UK Sun, Le Trung, 33, has created Aiko–a female robot with “with a stunning 32, 23, 33 figure, shiny hair and delicate features.” And oh yeah Aiko cleans and does Le’s bills.

I’ll refrain from the one-liners (I have at least 10), but Le has quite a tale. Can’t wait to read about Aiko’s software upgrade. I’m not sure whether to be intrigued by the technological undertaking or repulsed. I’ll figure it out once I get over my one liners.
