New York School District Halts Plan to Use Humanoid Robot Amid Backlash The Salamanca City Central school district in upstate New York has canceled plans for a humanoid robot called Sally, which was intended to be introduced at Salamanca High School.
The decision comes after critics raised concerns about the safety and motivations of using such technology in an educational setting.
Proponents of the program claimed that Sally would encourage student participation and provide early exposure to emerging technologies.
