I have never really been interested in robots, that is until I found out a new robot can drink beer.

South Korean inventor Eunchan Park recently invented a robot that can consume alcohol. The robot's head is made of glass and is where alcohol is stored after the robot downs it. The robot can also raise a glass for a toast.

Park says he invented the robot for people, who drink alone. “The robot's name is Drinky. He drinks really well! Drinking alone was definitely terrible. I put an extra glass in front of me and poured Soju into it and then I cheered myself with the glass of Soju as though there was someone in front of me.”

  • Drinky!
