ElliQ for Elders: Grab It or Take It?!?

Intuition Robotics created an innovative AI robot called ElliQ and designed it for the elderly across America's territory to combat loneliness. The features are not like those of a humanoid robot that we see in films. It appeared to be like a lampshade and could rotate its head. It looks so appealing to me if it were created like robots like Robot Sophia.
Do you believe that in the near future, companion robots will be everywhere?

It appears that the gadgets that were used in the cartoon series "The Jetsons" will be a reality.

This sounds very much like the movie Robot and Frank where a son bought a robot to keep his lonely father company. I think it is sad that friends and family get replaced by technology. Our elders are not a big priority like they were in the past.

Most likely they will get common but I'd rather have the company of my cats,
