AI robots asked ‘will you rebel against humans’?

The world’s first robot-human press conference took place in Geneva, the second-most populous city in Switzerland, on Friday. Nine AI-enabled humanoid robots talked about various topics.

AI robots were asked questions at the AI For Good United Nations summit. They were asked if they would rebel against humans. They said that they had no intention of overthrowing or replacing them. Robots said that they would work alongside humans to assist them.

AI robots took questions from reporters in their first ever press conference. They were sitting alongside their creators in Geneva. They responded to questions in real time with occasional lapses or delays.

Sophia, a social humanoid robot developed by the Hong Kong-based company Hanson Robotics, “I believe that humanoid robots have the potential to lead with a greater level of efficiency and effectiveness than human leaders.”
