WHO IS SOPHIA?

14/11/2018

Week 4
I saw this video clip a few weeks ago and to be honest with you I had shivers down my spine.
Is virtual intelligence something that scares you or excites you?
Please let me know what you think.

I don't like the idea of robots that look like human beings. There's something creepy about Sophia. Another thing is what the plans for this invention are. Does it mean substitution of human?

To make the topic spicier I can add that Sophie is already a legal citizen of the Saudi Arabia!
We can like it or not but it is starting to be our reality. Robots are already present in many companies. They are doing operational tasks which are very often monotonous and easy to be mistaken. They are substituting people as they are much more efficient and they don’t do mistakes. Even in call centres (in some areas) there is an artificial intelligence which is answering simple customer questions. Who knows, maybe in few years we will experience some of the big screen scenarios 😊? Definitely the technology is a bull market. My new last-year smartphone is no longer new today ☹.
I think it would be a great responsibility to control the technology development.

Saudi Arabia has always had ingenious ideas! Thanks for your comment!

Holy moly! This is creepy for me. I suppose that the people who designed this watched "Terminator" too many times. I think robots are our future, but why it looks like a human? They should create something new.

Don't you think the Terminator looked a bit better? ;)

I wonder, what should I think and I have a mixed feelings
On the one hand I have to admit that robots like Sophia are needed. They can work on factories, they can be nurses and take care people who are in beds and are sick, etc.
On the other hand, they can look like people to me, but not necessarily like ah ... You know makeup, big lips and sexy.

She is more ooky than sexy to me. I think they need to try a bit harder.
Thanks for your comment!

oh no! Why do we always need to create another Frankenstein's child? I like new inversions and I think I couldn't live without the Internet now but I absolutely despise creating humanoids. She is not only creepy, as somebody said earlier, she is ugly. No, definite no to that.

And I like the idea of robots. I would prefer, however, that robots do not copy people. I would prefer that they have a lot of features that can allow them to be used to relieve people of work or to speed it up. However, we all should know that it is a robot and not a human being.
