What I want now is an entire orchestra composed (though, to be brutally honest, I'd settle for a string quartet) of robots equipped traditional instruments, which can be controlled via MIDI (each robot mapped onto a MIDI voice).

I believe (and this is completely hunch based) that a human conductor does more than just wave his/her hands (and other body parts) based on the notes.
This is just another one of those things... Like when Deep Blue won Kasparov, all the retards thought that AI is here, finally.

...Honda would hurry up and get these on the market. I want to have one follow me around and beat up people who annoy me - slow walkers, chavs, loud children and so on. Then I can just blame the robot "got a mind of his own guv".
