The robot's *apparent* long-suffering patience added to its
anthropomorphic features in making me want to imagine it to have more
"humanity" than it possibly could.
Taking the hockey stick away from his tormentor or giving him a good
smackdown would seem to be an important part of "problem solving" in
this case.
One might suggest "intelligence is in the eyes of the beholder"?
It *does* feel as if OUR estimate of intelligence might involve how our
mirror neurons are activated.
