This is Kirobo, the first talking robot in space. The Japanese want to conduct a test on human-robot relations; sort of an early test to see if robots can help with loneliness on long space missions.
Kirobo's been designed to understand natural human language, to have unscripted conversations, and learn.

Here's a prior test to see how it reacted in zero gravity.

Kind of a cute little thing.
I'm sure it won't be long before they can develop robots that can hold much more elaborate conversations.
