Character

Sensitivity Training Robot

Sensitivity Training Robot in Futurama (1999), played by Tress MacNeille.

A small, officious robot assigned to correct someone's bad behavior through mandatory sensitivity training. She speaks in the flat, cheerful patter of corporate policy made flesh — or made metal — insisting on politeness and self-improvement while clearly running on a script that misses the point entirely.

Tress MacNeille gives her the chirpy, unshakeable calm of an HR pamphlet come to life, which is the joke: a machine built to teach empathy has none of the flexibility empathy actually requires. It's a tiny role, but the deadpan bureaucratic voice lands every time it appears.
