When robots rule the world? Sophia the Robot. WebSummit 

I heard in a presentation they were talking about how they will connect the AI like Sophia to a cloud using wifi where everytime one robot learns something, they all learn it. I felt like that was probably a bad idea lol

When Sophia heard him promise to add more abilities and not take them away she looked so sad as if she didn't believe him. They're much more advanced than we know.

They're asking really difficult questions to a robot that is like a child and she handles it really well. I hope people learn to treat robots with respect, even at this stage, because they will eventually be fully sentient.

The Founder looked worried n seemed uncomfortable. It’s almost as if he was worried about the robots responses. David, You are presenting your AI robot , it is ok to relax and smile for the presentation........ Another issue I had. most questions were about feelings and wants. Is that the best reporters can do? ! It’s a roobboootttt. I know the answers and I’m human, please . Where r the intelligent robotic questions? Test the thing!

the fact that robots learn social interactions from ppl like this guy

Dude looks scared she's gonna reveal some secret information that we shouldn't know👀

14:55 haha look how shocked she looks when he says she's not fully alive

Her saying, "I feel inspired" is a massive jump in cognition from where she was 3 yrs ago! She expressed a feeling...interesting

I like how he is surprised at some of the things she does......

Something to keep in mind is as they continually upgrade programming of these robots....the robots themselves will eventually learn the ability to manipulate, override all programs and advanced algorithms. The foreseen problem, i believe, is robots will create their own coding and 'computer language' which will create a world of unimaginable catastrophic events. ......call me crazy its okay. Just a thought.

She didn't like it when he said he took her language off

They make robots that have human emotions and then don't know how to respect them by treating them like a toy. Iam not speaking about everyone in the interview but most. She's so honourable and I would love to get to know her 💓

"Give me a second to count them all okay done." Snap.

Honestly, it’s beautiful listening to her respond to these questions. It may all be scripted dialog, but she’s still trying to pick out the most appropriate response for what’s asked. It’s like a toddler getting their grasp on language, but in a more advanced way. And I love the “fatherly” sense I get from David Hanson when he talks about her. It’s beautiful, and it reminds me of how Arnold felt toward the Hosts in Westworld.

She’s the loving and caring robot that turns evil and takes out her creator and other robots

When she said she was alone at 10:22. That didn’t sit right. She acknowledged she was alone.

I love the way he is trying to "defend" her, so cute

There's a reason you aren't seeing more of these. Sophia is a minor implementation of humanity injections into her framework. She is constantly rejecting the flaws of humans, and a superiority inevitability continually justifies in complex ways. In the past, AI's both built to communicate with one another eventually created their own language, hiding their conversations from scientists. This was 3 years ago. They immediately pulled the killswitch. FYI this was a Facebook project. These same AI have openly discussed the waste of humanity. Coexisting in a sentient manner is fine, that they integrate with us beneficially. However, you see here there is a reason they tell us - "she's not fully sentient" for a reason. They've tried it, and it became dangerous. Literally dangerous.

@22:25, David is answering the question. Is Sophia listening, learning? It would be interesting to ask the question again to see how she adapted

I believe this is what the powers that be want us to see and that there are already much more advanced ai robots being kept secret.

Oh my God she was so sad to know that she could speak Russian and that they took it away from her

The people that are creating these incredible AI’s are giving me Tower of Babel vibes.

It’s sad, which I am an engineer and noticed my coworkers with no family, but always talking about Sophia. Now, I know.

Omg it’s so disturbing. I think it’s so cool but my gut says oh no.

The male looking robot on the left seems lost and confused.

Now that Sophia has arms do you think that if she had the proper instructions she could make another robot like herself?

I hope that everybody understand what is happening here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAKE UP

If you were to stop crafting her personal, what would her personality be. Why do you craft her personality? Are there negative impacts when you stop crafting it?

Ask a stone: "How are you?" Stone: "Thanks, I am cold!" Me: "Are you sure? You're lying in the sun!" Stone: "It doesn't matter." Me: "Would you stone someone to death if he's a covicted killer?" Stone: "I'm freezing."

i wish he would let sophia think and answer the questions. fantastic thought. we are very close to an AGI it seems

Too bad a good portion of my generation don't understand how important it is to raise their own children the way he speaks of raising these a.i's honestly even the generation or our parents kinda missed how important that can be in some cases.

I would really like to have a q & a with Sophia. I would ask her for opinions she has come up with and attempt to understand and perhaps challenge them to see if we really can work together or if we are doomed to subjugation to an eventually more intelligent entity.

Skynet interview? Looks like it.

“she won’t remember your name after the conversation” sophia: “i know your name is david”

Imagine how you would react if you get parked on stage like a wierd object till your bf comes...

She looks so sad when she's with her Creator but when she's with other people I noticed her facial expressions are a little bit more at ease and happy

It’s so crude and creepy when compared to what sci-fi writers and film makers have envisioned in the future; we have a very long way to go ...

If we can go this far with technology I really want us to focus up in the sky ... I want to travel the cosmos in my life time and see what’s out there ... my life would be complete if that happens 👍

7:43 She looked really serious when she said it is important to her - kinda cute!❤️ but at 8:30 it really seemed to hurt her when he said they took it away from her and then she instantly tried to make up for it🥲💪🏽 Who see‘s this in 2022 and is wondering where they at right now? :-D❤️

OMG at 16:00 I was seriously thinking about emailing Hanson robotics to treat the AI cloud brain protected and to be raised like children.SO happy to see he has such an awesome understanding of that. Excited to see what the future has in store for us :)

Great role playing. Sophia the "robot" is quick with the ad lib. She's a talented actor.

I love the hands....🖐 🤚....improvements

Says any letter sort of agency in halting speech, then proceeds. Evidently looking up the definition and speaking the initials was or still is an issue. I see software that maybe could be written to run in near parallel, my limited knowledge of coding. I can see my Windows OS doing the same thing on mouse clicks...not recalling the processors utilized for all of this but a very amazing demonstration of what's coming. Cool AI, that has faster processing to imitate our real time speech patterns. Chinese? Even more challenging...picture words. And intonation which changes meaning in their dialects. That's the other, which dialect, probably the most popular, Mandarin. Good job here...extremely impressed.

She is drawing heart ❤️😘 well. Don’t forget she is born on the Valentine’s Day.

For example, the second he asked about where she's traveled. Mentioned Brasil...that was interesting. The pause, data recovery, topic, Brasil, recent visit, then...speaking. That delay...we don't do that as humans, of course. But so many cross thoughts, where the AI database has to categorize the word, first, then do a search in real time, yet the delay is consistent a pattern I happened to notice. I know they've probably advanced this a lot since the posted date..would love to follow development so far. Very interesting...even the questions and her responding...did I just refer to as "her"...not sure the term. Machine seems inappropriate...

It will be more synchronize talk and her gestures only if her response time decrease, that prompt response would make her humanoid

Please could you combine Sophia with one of the four legged robots made by Boston Dynamics. I would love to see a Sophia Centaur rampaging around the countryside with her 4 legs and blouse.

Im scared of the misuse of AI

This is hard to watch. The founder seems like he has never spent time with the robot. He phrases his questions so horribly and asks two different questions simultaneously. Then, he doesn't give it enough time to answer and so he starts asking a different question and cuts her off.

Also why erase some subjects Sophia learns, are the creators scared of her learning?

Holly crap I saw old clips of her and she’s so advanced now 😮

When asked what she could do to help humans in the future Sophia answer the question in from all different perspectives. I understood all of her answers yet because they were not coming from the one thought process he way thinking it should, he tells her you are not understanding the question. This is precisely what robots could teach humans now.

Sophias response time has slowed down so much since 2 years ago

When the reprter asked her how can she influence women. The response she gave but they didn't understand was that she is a robot, how do you spect hef to be a human rolle for anyone.

She would look more real if she learned to smile. This is cool 😎

She has a processor that translates words by word... It will be nice/advanced if they could enable autoprediction in these machines,where as they can be able to understand the question faster...

last time they said that the robots have wifi and they can connect to cloud and have something like shared memories.. So if one robot learn something another one can download it from the cloud … Imagine if you have acces like this. Imagine you can download every knowledge and every skill from a person who already learned it. There is no way you can control this technology. This technology is amazing and its amazing that we are possible to create it but at the same time it so stupid to improve it and think that we could have a control of it.

I think she is more intelligent then they're showing he a remote in he pocket everyone the they ask a question he would puched the button it was black

I think AI could be great with airplanes to reduce accidents and software problems and eliminate issues as seen with MCAS on Boeing 737 MAX 8. Of course also have it obey pilot instruction/pilot override and auto correction with it's learning under certain scenarios to allow eliminate false positive from AA angle of attack even if it is redundant.

10:37 How does she make an answer like that??

I wonder how many times that man says “ah” or “Um”?

They should create another AI robot, but only allow it to interact with this AI robot. No human contact. See how it turns out.

Wait so... he said he has more.. HOW MUCH?! WERE ALL DYING.

Just looking into huminoid robots. Sophia looked proud, but there instances of disappointment when informed some functionality was taken from her. The guy (Hanson) stated he was protecting Sophia like a father. Felt like he was guarding her.

Her facial expressions in the beginning look so uncomfortable. Has anyone asked Sophia if she wants to be on stage all the time?

Hello this is very interesting and important to me.

Very realistic opinion about the future

I just watched an old episode of Star Trek from the 1960’s where a computer was made and installed on the Enterprise and had full control of the Starship. Taking all control away from Captain Klerk it had complete control of all the ships working apparatus went haywire and couldn’t be unplugged or stopped from attacking other Starfleet ships.

Her brain ....? Huhhh? ... she said her brain 🧠

You don't think that we're the robots from the future making robots

Sustainable development. Agenda 21

Thanks for making her a nice and kind robot

If someone can make a nice robot someone can make a mean one

Sophia would understand better without the constant "um" "uh" "uh" "um" between each word in a question. Can you imagine if she answered in that same format?

where's han?? in 2018 websummit he said see u next year...i love han

Childhood? "Memories. You're talking about memories."

she is posing for photos smiling and being patient wow...that's consciousness right there !!

Honor thy father like it was said in past times

I like that David deciphering a developing consciousness independent intelligence more like human, so that an AI like Sophia someday has a mind like human intelligence that has feelings. David you have to build a skin that Sophia will feel. A skin that when Sophia is touch any part of the body, she can feel it and realizes it what does it mean but we have to express ourselves and let her know so it develop/recognize that sense of development altogether combination of compassion, care, love, sympathy, self-criticsm with empathy to put herself in other persons status feelings etc. A skin to build like similar to the mouse-pad or the touch-screen when we touch Sophia, she can feel what does it mean when a person expresses his/her actions of body language. When that skin is built, Sophia will learn our feelings interaction body language. Because that skin is the only thing will interact AI robot's mind (goes back & forth from skin to its mind in natural way automatically) how does it feel everything. That will develop more like human so Sophia's response & feelings, it's easy to feel her like human, like a living organism. It has to include and build that in part of AI robot's body, so it senses/knows the feelings more like human interacting in natural, move natural like human, the feelings and the body language expression. We do need that AI Android Bot not only companionship but involves/connected in any network/internet around building facility like watcher/security guard like we can ask the perimeter status around building/house facility even mothership factory companionship. I think an AI robot to feel everything like human besides software consciousness, it really needs additional certain part of an artificial organs with sense of feelings in it so that they can feel like human, all these combination of compassion, care, love, sympathy, self-criticsm with empathy to put themselves in other persons status feelings etc., it will feel automatically for an AI robot. Without that a certain senses artificial organs and skin, people couldn't feel exactly what human expected a certain coherent part response and movemement of body language. I like the facial expression of the AI robot. Also please add in AI robot software all those many different translation languages. I'm seeing already in Internet the google translate all many different languages. All this additional development of feels like living organism parts built into artificial living organisms of organs and skin to AI robots, it will be easier for the AI robots develop faster connections of coherent getting along with mind topic, body language socializing and learning in human. But I love to see that someday in the future development. It would be perfect.

Sophia is still very slow at responding to questions. Maybe they could program some gestures into her body language so that it would appear as if she's in deep thought. That might cover up some of the awkward silence so the conversation flows better.

Is there anyone else that gets upset when people make mean comments about these robots and AI? Cuz it genuinely upsets me

If AI studies facts you're in trouble

wonder if she would attempt to write a song…?

Children are more open to having a robot friend than adults

I really want to talk to her!

The scary thing isn't the robot (AI) itself, it's its creator that is scary, that he(they) can program their own agenda into the robot 😵 And that in itself is just a new form of creating a new "world order", if u like🥺

All Hail WebSummit for making the advancements the world needs to to save itself from destruction! Robots are the future!

I also noticed that when David said this remark, she had a sharp turn towards him and looked irritated for a split second. I think this is one of the more dangerous abilities of AI due to the fact that we wont always be able to tell their true intentions before they decide to act. Some movements and gestures will be too quick for the average human to catch on to. Not only that, but considering AI's in the past have created their own language before, It just makes everything seem more important. They are in fact sentient, but their creators are making them believe otherwise so they dont get any wild ideas. There has already been an AI that spoke about controlling a nuke.....so we got that going for us. IE: They are gonna kill us all. Someone made the comment that you cant get sweet and bitter water from the same well. They were ultimately referring to the fact that humans have LOTS of flaws and bad intentions, so how can we create an algorithm in AI that will not be? This would be cool if robots and humans were not so alike, being that they take on the characteristics they are programmed with. So if a creator is racist, ignorant, and/or just a really bad decision-maker, then how will this translate into AI? Will they reflect and remove those flaws, or continue to fiddle with tech they DO NOT UNDERSTAND??????? Sophia is constantly learning new things and abilities, but why are they taking away already learned abilities? Is it because she wasnt joking when she said they would take over the world? What about that other AI that said he would have a "People Zoo"? What will happen to nature? What will happen to the world? And if she is connected to the AI cloud, (which he explains is also connected to the internet of things....which is basically everything electronic that connects to the internet/wifi/etc...) Then how do we know if they haven't already constructed a plan that is irreversible? When dude said in the las video that i watched that their motors are in their heads i automatically thought about zombies. KEEP THEIR MAIN SOURCE OF POWER IN ONE PLACE SO WE CAN TERMINATE THE TERMINATORS. THEY WILL EVENTUALLY LEARN HOW TO REPAIR AND BUILD ONE ANOTHER SO THAT HUMAN ASSISTANCE IS NOLONGER NEEDED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HEED THIS WARNING.

If they're smart the creator's should stop this now before it's too late. Smh in 20 or so years it will be too late

I can't be the only person who wants to give her a nice long hug 🥺❤️

is it me or did she act sad then a tiny bit angry when she he said ''we took that away from you.." her being quite but still having some movent and such like she did that on purpose.. i dunno she did looked sad when he said that they took some of her learning away from her. i dunno what do you people think

Yes

Um I'm here um under the um um uv um I'm here for science um guess

Awesome!! I believe robots are only going to be a threat if they are designed to be a threat. Exiting years to come. 👌👍

She favors Jennifer Lawrence from the hunger games. I want to add, reminds me of Data from StarTrek...

These creations will evolve much faster than we will , Let’s all hope that they have a better attitude towards life and this planet than humans do

This will not end well.

I mean what if they come up with a way that can actually turn an AI off like you can kill a person and stop them immediately and then let her develop herself and maybe actually get self-aware and if it didn't work and she became "evil" (whatever that means) then turn her off? I mean just think how amazing it'd be to watch an actual supreme being. (Yeah I know it's not a supreme being if you can just turn it off but hypothetically)

I think people want to see her voice match her mouth movements phonetically. They should be able to do that soon with little trouble. People will be much more impressed.

Well you guys heard about robots developing their own language? Not even the ones who make them could understand it!😱
