'Sophia' the robot tells UN: 'I am here to help humanity create the future'



Guardian News

‘Sophia’ the life-size social robot speaks at the United Nations, telling the audience she is ‘a year-and-a-half old and I can see you, have a  full conversation, make thousands of facial expressions and understand speech and meaning behind words’. It adds: ‘And I just got these new hands – check this out’ before moving its fingers. United Nations deputy secretary general Amina J Mohammed asks the robot a question about how the UN can help those without basic needs such as electricity. ‘Sophia’ quotes William Gibson before talking about how artificial intelligence is more efficient and can be used to better distribute resources. The robot thanks the audience before attempting a slightly forced smile.

  2. What do you know about the development of robotics and Artificial Intelligence? Have you ever imagined the possibility of robots with the full implementation of all human knowledge in their software thanks to artificial intelligence being able to evolve on their own? Come and share your ideas … Hermes Mensageiro

  3. This is just weird. And again programmed by a human so if it’s that’s easy to fix the worlds problems, why haven’t we already done it with what we have. Sorry this to me is just scary and wrong. But hey ..
