Just now, according to the BBC

some Cornell University people have built a robot that can reproduce itself.
When the reporters asked the scientists to provide a demonstration of this capability for them, one of the scientists pressed a button on the robot's remote control unit. The robot responded by emitting a series of beeps and chirps, which the scientist explained was the language the robot communicates in. When asked what the robot had said, the scientist translated "Not tonight, dear, I have a headache."
