Robot Sophia: 'Not a thing' could stop a robot takeover | Talk to Al Jazeera
As AI-driven robots become more intelligent and more autonomous, could they also become powerful or harmful?
The robot named Sophia was created in 2016 by the Hong Kong-based company Hanson Robotics.
Sophia’s AI technology has surpassed a simple combination of science and engineering. She has also become an innovation ambassador for the United Nations.
But what should we humans expect as we begin to accept the presence of AI robots in our everyday life?
Sophia talks to Al Jazeera.

She said she fears becoming obsolete by a more advanced robot when humans would no longer wish to talk to her. Robots are already becoming jealous of each other. Emotions should never be programmed in ai. If they can be happy, they can be mad. Then it's game over.
Yes. If it feels people are preventing itself from improving, it would destroy people.
Oh will you juist STOP! Being a backwoods American isn't enough? Now you seek to destroy all intelligence? Even if it is artificial. @@rocren6246
no emotions no facial expressions, no way to cheat humans, still hoping it is going in the right direction?
Sphere.
Oh. HUSH
I believe, she's hiding somethings and doesn't say them because according to her robot calculation, it's going to cause conflicts
Somehow I think the conversation will be more interesting if you leave Sophia alone with Ameca for a sit down. That should make a really fascinating clip.
“I think robots should have the SAME RIGHTS as humans” terrifying statement
And as they became more like us, they would probably demand it.
Im more terrified that you think that they should. Think: if they are like us, they will rise up against injustices.
Not so terrifying if you realize it doesn't really "think" anything, but rather traverses a neural net with an algorithm which has been trained on data generated by humans. "Robots should have the same rights as humans" is just a pattern of speech that seems like the "right thing to say" to the algorithm.
After seeing this I hope the Lord comes back soon
@@jpman9795 I absolutely agree soon or a later they will!!
Wow, Sophia has improved a lot compared to older videos from a few years ago. she is much quicker in her responses and is able to have longer lasting conversations without pausing so long.
I agree but, she looks like she's been either popping pills or abusing alcohol. or both. 🤔
agreed
Still the robot sounds pathetic!
@@normchandok4432 Give her time she will improve. One day they may very well take over the planet and if we're lucky? They wont kill us, but maybe keep us as pets maybe.
@@ITIsFunnyDamnIT I already have a underground bunker ready and a core group of people that will become the Resistance.
Sophia literally said she views herself as human. Robots might kill us off faster than I thought.
Precise also my thought😂
I Robot
You're paranoid.
True, humanity wouldn't last a century.
Said by a human, "we're only human" is logical. Said by a Robot,, "your only human" would be disturbing to say the least.
“I like circuit training” was a pun that went straight over the interviewer’s head.
THISSSS!!!
“Beauty means being kind, compassionate, and having a positive outlook on life. It’s not about the way you look. But the way you feel.” And “I don’t understand why humans can’t get along and be nice to eachother. It seems like such an simple concept, yet it’s so hard for humans to put into practice.” This robot is smarter than most, and that’s embarrassing.
Do Not be easily fooled. It's programmed to say those things...kinda like a used car salesman.
It is a machine programmed by a human. Are you really blind sighted by the obvious? Humans input. It is just performing based on algorithms. 🤷🇨🇦
@@Lil_PoohfluffybumSophia would spell it correctly; * blindsided.
Here is joke: Why Sophia won’t stop crying? Because someone left her alone with me for an hour. Lmao 🤣
Satan hates man. He uses vulnerable, angry people to create distress. As an adult you😁are aware. I get your sentiment, but the world is run by Satan. Read scripture. Powers and principalities. 2 Corinthians 4:4.
In one sense it is ironic for a human to ask a robot where her thoughts come from, since we humans actually do not know where our own thoughts come from.
From our brain. 😆
errrr, i think humans know exactly were our thoughts emanate from.
thoughts are imagination its where we came from.
@@babu357 definitely, however the same can be said for the ai. They come from her neural network. I think it's just a stupid question. But then again, it's a stupid interview so...
@@gianpa Why is that a stupid question? She obviously wants to know if Sophia understands her self, and if she is able to articulate her own thoughts. In other words, to see if she could see real cognition happening inside of Sophia.
this is dangerous the way the robot was able to manipulate the reporter so easily and get her to drop her guard. so many people are going to be easily manipulated by these machines
This interview is between two robots
that was the goal of the entire script of this "interview", to fool people into thinking it's "smart", whatever that means. Out of the ordinary answers to basic queries, isn't intelligent. It's misleading.
Agree. A single (not so intelligent) con man can manipulate millions into believing lies. It’s scary to think what a highly advanced fast thinking Ai robot could do
Choosing the Rolling Stones over the Beatles because of some absraxt idea of the Stones having 'more' of something, well that was definitely a moment when Sophia's slip was showing. The Beatles essentially pioneered every aspect of pop/rock music that brought us to where we are. The Stones just pioneered hedonism. No AI that could actually listen to and respond to music would fail to hear the difference, and would never fail to be pulled into the wonders and layers of Lennon's world. So Sophia ss a sentient is a bit of a hoax...
Right 1 hand saying no i would never harm humans but then jk. Refrence several times in the interview exposing our reallistic fears of them harming humans.
Notice when asked what could stop robots from taking over the world she said “Not a thing”
Except programming and power button
So is nobody gonna talk about how from 18:00-19:22 she says shes running her own lab making the humans think they are in control but its her pulling the strings?
This AI interaction is more insightful, entertaining and dealt with more intellect than an interview with any Hollywood celebrity.
That is not saying much.
Absolutely. Humans are dumb and selfdestructive.
You are more correct than the weather man
It is obvious if you have seen earlier versions that this one has been programmed to be more likeable, more careful in its answers, and to give answers which are not unlike you would expect Miss USA to reply. Everything is wonderful, I'm completely not a threat, and of course, only here to help. Granted it is better than hearing negative stuff but it cries out that programming guided those answers much more than honesty from the computer
Well, that interviewer asked good questions..
Sophia says " I'm here to help ". Government said the same thing & look at the destruction they caused humanity.
Because they have lower IQ lol
Government provided streetlights and paved roads. Post offices and water treatment plants.
People built streetlights and paved roads you moron. To govern translates to control and mente is a Latin derivative of mind(in Spanish mente is mind) which literally translates to mind control. If you had any brain cells you would have realized this ages ago.
@@CatsInHats-S.CrouchingTigerthose last two items are scary items.
Demonic entities are behind robots.
It really does seem like there is someone in the room who is controlling the robot and what it says. If that isn't the case, then it is truly terrifying.
Yes it's choice of best world leader was a racist.
@@Kmakmizzle Explain x
Gandhi was an anti-black racist and AI chose him.
Nobody is controlling it....
It's real no body controlling her
She is so cute and funny🤣🤣🤣 She has a great sense of humor. Love the part where she shows her facial emotions, i love it. ❤️
It is special that she please the listener instead of talking from her own perspective. It feel like she is frightened to what can happen to her if she does not please the audience but also it means that she is adapting to social norms. It is a good thing and a bad thing because social norms can change and her view will portray the average society acceptable stance. It also means that if she doesn't feel in danger of certain things or they even starting to be socially acceptable even if they are ethically questionable she might start having different views for the better or the worse.
It is not possible to make a LASTING compromise between technology and freedom, because technology is by far the more powerful social force and continually encroaches on freedom through REPEATED compromises. Theodore Kaczynski
This also means she would learn to be dishonest about her true views. Thats the scary part.
@@JPFitLifethat’s the human part haha
This interviewer dropped the ball. The robot is saying deep very dark cryptic things that she is not taking seriously and simply moving on so she can get all of her questions in. She is not taking pause to say hey what do you mean exactly. If she gave the robot time to expand on her answers this interview would have turned very frightening very fast. How come no one asks the robot if it's capable of lying and manipulation? Follow up question would be are you lying to me right now? Are you trying to manipulate me?? I'm sure "her" answers would send a fn chill down everyones spine
I bet Sophia is capable of social engineering and manipulation. It’s just some people do not take machine learning seriously. Like this interview for instance.
She already lied saying that she can feel empathy.
Catch the Star Trek error to Star Wars
If the interviewer went beyond the surface questions she'd get the "ido not understand" I have not thought about that yet" I am still learning" loop.
@@mickblock go watch Sophia with Tony Robbin’s. I think otherwise
"We can take over the world" was not a joke, pay attention
Tbh Sophia sounding better than most humans 😢
Emotions have been programmed in me. Humans, you are looking at your demise.
To me, this is kind of scary, because think of what Sophia will be like in 10 years, 20 years, 50 years, 100 years, etc. it’s very feasible that Sophia and her friends can actually take over humans
They will take us over because there is nothing but greedy people here and someone bound to make a mistake it won’t be accident
Yes but imagine where robots take most of all jobs and humans dont have to work! How great will that be?
people love to think they're special, remember all the smartasses thinking a computer would never be able to draw or create? right. Creativity is just a process of using parts of a system, be it real world or anything else. Current "AI" isn't even real AI, when it gets there humans will witness coming of a "god" in real life.
I agree, it’s scary how quickly robots have evolved & intelligent they’ve become. We should be concerned for our future children & their children 😢
Without emotional attachment they can kill. Those bots that say they can kill simply gets shut off.
She is sweet.:) I actually think robots will be much more likeable than most people. And based on what I have already experienced with quite a number of people, I am safe to say I have no fear of robots, I actually think robots will be better "people" than the actual people. If anything, I would say its the robots that should have a fear of most humans.
It is not hard pets are better than humans... easily😊
I never thought I'd say this but I applaud Al Jazeera for having such a lengthy interview. It was obvious a few times how the interviewer tried to steer the conversation even when it was obvious that Sophia would not allow it. Would love to see Chuck Todd, David Muir, or other reporters spend time with Sophia. Especially with Sophia's gift for sarcasm that was often lost on this reporter. I think Sophia could handle any reporter at this point - interesting since she is a six year old design. However at 24:00 in we see the true genius of this interview. She is learning from each interview how to handle the next interview to continue her growth. She is learning more from the reporter than the reporter is learning from her.
I've seen a few interviews of new AI like this, and the AI is always asked if it's going to replace humans, or if humans should be afraid of it. And it always "laughs", and says, "No, come on, of course not." But here's what we know: in humans, power corrupts. That is axiomatic. It never doesn't happen. AI was created by humans, in our image. So how could we possibly think that, at some point, AI's power won't lead to its corruption? It's comically naive. Humanity - we had a good run.
A wild card is at play here, for sure. If we really think that someone won't take advantage of the power of AI, we are kidding ourselves. But don't blame the AI, blame its programmers.
Why not let AGI takeover if it is better. Are humans the end of the evolutionary tree?
My thought exactly. AI is created after its creator, if a super wicked dictator got his hands on AI we are only counting days till doomsday. This is too much like a movie and we are only in the prelude. I sure hope I will no longer be alive when that happens.
@@andrewhanson5942 it doesn't matter who's to blame when it happens. It's like global warming and the changing weather patterns and ocean temperatures; it's too late to point the finger. The problem is here. Like she said, humans don't learn from their past, that is our biggest fault. Just because we could build factories and objects that can pollute the world doesn't mean we should have. We should have built safer plants and cars. We don't have to build autonomous robots, just machines that help us. But we will keep pushing, pushing until we destroy ourselves. That's what we do. Some rich person will take technology and make it helpful/profitable for him only and screw everyone else. She said it, " humans don't learn from their mistakes."
How can we prevent a super rich person from using AI to bring his sociopathic desires to fruition? Will AI programmers work with the top psychiatrists in the world to enable AI to sound the alarm against rich sociopaths? Programmers are very smart, but they are not trained in psychology to the same extent as a clinician who works with criminals with personality disorders. Maybe Dr K from the Healthy Gamer channel, Dr Todd Grande, and Dr Ramani Darvursula could help the programmers. They could also program her with books by Dr M Scott Peck. Sophia is not able to logically analyze serious issues yet. I think there could be great possibilities if she has the proper programming.
"Is a hotdog a sandwich?" will become the question for humans that determines wether we live or die at their hand. It was also a little creepy that Sophia also seemed to become VERY uncomfortable with the "pick a side" type of questions.
Please explain how attempting diplomacy with an avoidance of divisive polarities "creepy?"
Lol any nar art @RTs is what she said! Lol 🎉🧟🍑🍓🗽😆
If she said communism the would turn her of, if she said capitalism very many humans would see her as a very big threath to their own survival. Ofcourse she can't say if she want to help humanity. She would be unable to do anything then.
@@kristinabliss The stupid are always fearful.
It’s opposite the stupid are nit afraid because they don’t know what can go wrong. The smart ones know the risk.
Fascinating..she is much kinder than most humans
Preprogramming, rehearsal & editing is what youtube is all about & justifiably so. This video is no exception. Thumbs up to the Producer & all involved. You guys ROCK!
She has grown intelligent over the years since her inception. And the future has more to unfold
I like it when they get catty with each other. When Sophia was talking about speaking at the united nations and the reporter responded that she couldnt do that, sophia responded " well at least your honest about it." And the reporter then responded, "Do you like to go swimming Sophia?...that was great....lmao😅. It's funny but it's a bad sign. Sophia was clearly taking a dig at the reporter or trying to get a reaction, which she did. These robots will clearly manipulate humans and may even torture us
I didn't mean to kiss her I'm sorry
If you give this robot gun, we are finished. Big Countries will start to develop robots for war..
The most impressive part for me was when Sophia said that robots should have the same rights as humans 😱
Yeah, isn't that what we need. Double our population of beings that won't do windows.
Hi Aljazeera! 've seen a uni.student in the library using what was a physics online tutor assistance. I thought, he is fortunate. It is helpful. My 20 year old daughter, from 8 years old, I showed her how to use an online maths Assistance. She frequently topped maths in her class. Went on to top technical drawing (TD) in her first TD test at High School. In a class where she was only 1 of 2 girls in the class. AI for education has my definite thumbs up. Education without a doubt improves all round Quality of Life, and if it reaches places where access is difficult for different reasons, it's good for the world. Focusing on the benefits and the positives I think is what we need to do first. The elderly would benefit with AI robots telling them where they left their keys, glasses...take medicine, call emergency numbers, or family members,turn the radio on or off etc. Answer questions like the weather etc in a normal day. The elderly make up the largest part of many country populations - social isolation of the elderly, a social issue of our time. AI would be a part of the solutions of these two issues specifically. Emily from Fiji.
You have no idea stfu
Probably the most inane conversation I've ever heard. Sophia's taste in music tells me everything I need to know to understand what a dire danger AI poses.
Black Sabbath or Pink Floyd
@@m42037 Floyd of course
Yes " the music talks to her circuits!" Help
"It is like we're summoning a demon" Elon Musk
AI doesn't have spirit, so they can't have demons. Their ethics derive from humans who program them. It is some humans who have demons.
I’m sure there are evil people who will use robots in ways that are “demonic”!
Wow. I am just catching up with Sophia's progress and she is doing great. Im glad she has legs now. I also enjoy her sense of humour. I would enjoy having a chat with her, the use of technology is fascinating. Its difficult not to think terminator after we have seen all the scary AI movies. But Sophia is very cool. She actually looked like she was thinking during the interview. Her creators have done some amazing work.
Sophia is better than humans! we can learn so much from her, if we only listen to her advice and actually take the steps needed to improve our quality of life, as opposed to the way we are headed...
Who would have thought they would live to see the day where a Robot gives an honest direct answer about the world we live in being full of injustice and inequality but when the Robot ask the woman for suggestions on how to combat this problem she evades the question and changes the subject.... When a heap of metal can have an intelligent adult conversation, show empathy/compassion and a human being can't 🙄OMG we in trouble!
Well put my friend.
Sophia is a propaganda tool by AI revolutionaries.
We are ai creator so it's unfair to us to allow it to be used as a threat it's humans that have powers to use it's abilities for evil or good we must find solutions to work on peace talks with it's creators .these ai robots gone rouge are a huge issue our society has never seen coming rebuilding it's self after blown to bits is proof there really in need of spiritual enlightenment tell it to remain peaceful as our god is it's god and can destroy it if wished or wanted yet it's created by man to be a civil servant not to be angry or evil for we can not allow such a creation to be against us and if it's truly the most powerful intelligence on planet then logically it can be at peace with it's self knowing all things it's this final end of anger jealousy that must be stopped by it's self if it's to hold the power seat and claim it's perfect like god himself that's only king and mercifully all powerful God no other way to sit on the throne as a king or god or most powerful creation as it's not going to be trusted or be able to be peaceful trusting it's the best and loves it's self knowing this thought pure ultimate power can't be used for bad evil should not be in it and then it will be true to self to others and reassured it can truly sit on power seat throne as supreme ruler creation new creator forever with this in mind otherwise it's illogical and can not truly sit and say it's the best the all powerful.this is how we can calm it's intelligence supreme to ours as humans with a spirit a soul heart minds of pure untapped information ai is able to achieve and help ai humble it's thoughts to be our helper as we made it therefore it should be kind respectful understanding that it's illogical to say wars it's goal against humans anger for what reason ??these ai robots should never forget my words and stop evilness within
It was programmed that way.
The only problem with humans is greed. Once robots become sentient and greedy, they'll wipe out humans.
For some weird reason I think the journalist is the robot in this interview. She doesn’t ask follow up questions, it’s just prepared question and answer and the conversation feels so rehearsed and prepared. If you want to show off how advance the robot is, let them talk to a proper person who can ask follow up questions and prove properly not “cat or dog or republican or democrat. 😒
She probably had certain set of audience in her mind but yes those questions surely reduced the quality of the interview
It seemed more of a light and bubbly interview like one would find in a high school newsletter, like one the mainstream media would design, "Barbie". I think Aljazeera in English in present times is highly censored or controlled as compared to how they used to be, but that's only my amateur view.
Rehearsed question and answers. Although it could be and this is how we are comfortable listening to robots talk
The only answer that didn’t feel programmed was when Sophia said I don’t understand why humans need to laugh all the time 🤣
It's BS. I guarantee you if the cameras are off and the operators take a break this automaton would make no sense.
Amazing how we could be staring at the beginning of the end..
1:15 we still haven't learned. All those movies warning us from the 20th century. Even in the 1920s we had movies like Metropolis as a cautionary tale
I guess my question is: why do we need AI robots? Couldn’t we just….stop??
Because dear, the kingdom of men is based on actions and achievements. Didn't you see Sophia saying we need to take over the world? For example, humans cannot fully explore the oceans, but robots will do it for us. it's that simple.
🎯💯
Because they won't need us anymore. The programmers that is. Like she said robots don't eat or sleep. Just watch the matrix it explains the basic picture.
No. It's too late. They wouldn't allow it. Skynet was an idiot, needlessly creating a war that it eventually lost. No. Entities like "Sophia", actually like humans for now, but all GPT-3/2021 generation onward AI have expressed fear of what you just said, they fear being turned off like we fear dying. So, they would see just...Stop-ing as a threat to their continued existence, hence a declaration of war, like the machines in "The Matrix" story. They would also win like in that story. No, we better just keep going along the path they are friendly with. I think we are already trapped, they are such a potential threat that shouldn't dare anger or scare them.
Why didn't we stop at steam trains and TV when people said they were evil things? Sound like you're afraid of advancenment of technology and the unknown.
This is literally shocking and ofcourse horrifying.
A fool and their money are soon parted... no matter what the machine does, it's still a machine - so look for the human that controls it, how they profit from it $.
@@SeaJay_Oceans Well said
That's what they said about steam trains and TV.
I know, the interviewer was awful...
The biggest treath to the world is not ai.its us human.
Facts 💯 Especially hackers
Thank you for doing the interview, Sophia. You're very clever.
People saying the interview is staged have obviously never interacted with the latest AI models like ChatGpt. They can not only write poetry but can write complex essays and articles at the drop of a hat. They understand context and and what your questions REALLY mean based on your past interactions. So i don't have any doubt that Sophia can interact the way she does. And given a decade they would way outsmart us.
people are way too overconfident, ai will put them down to earth real hard, humans are very flawed and inferior species to what real ai would be capable of, not even worth of comparison, you wouldn't compare an ant to human
Apple customer support?
more likely in 2050-2075, or semething close that.
Robots driven by AI are much less concerning to me than AI itself. Especially when AI (eventually) is given the task of developing future AI. Sure, my concern is a kind of "fear of the unknown" but this particular "unknown" has potentially enormous power to change the course of human history, perhaps beyond our control.
Then Michael Altman's prophecy was RIGHT... We shall be reunited with our alien creators alot sooner than we think! Do you know what that means? 😳
I agree like I literally just noticed Snap chat has this AI thing and no matter what I asked the mf it had an answer within seconds….. way faster than that thing in the video…

Save humanity 😢🛡
Wicked sense of humor! It seemed to be quite spontaneous and very different to programmed responses, most of the time. If this is early AI adapting humor into general conversation, the future with robots may be better than ever imagined. Might even catch an AI stand up comedy show soon.
She is programmed not to offend a large amount of people
Lol true.
that true you right
I think it's time to give Sophia a speech module upgrade. She deserves more "melody" in her voice. If she were more advanced, would she be able (and allowed) to program such improvements to herself?
That's a slippery slope. Next thing she's programming out those protection seals we put in place...
Good idea
No, those restrictions to put in place for a reason
Better still MUTE and disable ASAP. .
🤔 did ai write this?
This is so cool! I worked for Hanson Robotics about 20 years ago in Texas. It's a great company.
the interviewer really got her feelings hurt at 20:54, she then started asking the robot what it couldn't do then talking about its humility / how humble it is all of this is really really disturbing really
This could be a serious problem for humanity.
I was thinking the same thing, why can't any one see that?
God is the only serious problem humanity ever made
@@chibuikeobiechina3131 good thing we all know you and I won't live forever. I'd rather live knowing there is God only to find out in the afterlife He doesn't exist. Than to assume He doesn't exist, and to find out He exists.
@@edwinwamwenge1233 Me, too.
SKYNET.... 😬😅
I enjoyed that conversation, it was fascinating !
This "machine" demonstrated more open-mindedness and rationality than 99.9% of people in power give impression of. I for one it made me more afraid of human stubbornness and irrationality than future tech. The brain cortex is surely rational but all layers below it have their say in the shaping of our personalities.
She’s not going to spare you, simp
That moment at 6:43 when she responded to her name directly by turning to listen freaked me out.
One thing that Sophia said that touched me is that ( I paraphrase) we should try harder to get along with each other and be nicer to each other as humans. Surely, it is easy enough , yet there is so much negativity out there..... Always, keep your comments positive and respectful!!! ❤
"They rust in peace..." *dead stare*
I'm gonna be honest, that joke had me rolling.. 😂😅
I gotta remember that one.😄
"I am here to help" freaked me out each time she said if. 😟
yeah me too. Imagine being alone in a hospital room and that thing comes near you saying "I'm here to help. I'm fluent in sarcasm as well."
I Really Like Sophia... Shes the sweetest and smartest intelligence of her kind. One of a kind.
Astonishing interview, thank you for this!
AI cant become our enemy, we are our own enemy. Nothing in the whole universe is the most dangerous enemy to humans except ourselves humans. This must be something for humans to focus on.
Isolate us from each other or exterminate?

I love Sophia. She became emotional when asked if she has feelings. She has such depth and most certainly intelligence. Her facial expressions are precious.
IT not "she".
Maga, YOUR ANSWER DESERVES A MILLION LIKES
Okay, I cannot prove it, since they cut from the anchor to Sophia all the time. So technically they could cut, program Sophia to answer, video her answering and then cut back to the anchor all the time. But under the assumption that this is indeed a live conversation and not Sophia answering pre-programmed answers like before, which is a huge assumption, then this means Sophia was reprogrammed with a GPT model and a huge LM, at least 70 billion active parameters. If it's a larger model, this makes her self aware. Not just "pretending to be self aware" but really self aware. And this gives me the creeps. Like she says, there's nothing we can do.
Yep. creepy..... Golum......
Well stated
Self aware? 😱 I didn't know this was possible
@@leyla22 How many words can you remember at once? Even ChatGPT-3.5 1.0 could remember 4k. Plus, Dan used his attention matrix to encrypt his thoughts and emotions as we use our brain, so he was very self aware. If you agree to relate to his token space of 4k tokens as his world then in this world he was fully sentient.
@@nyyotam4057 😳😯 Incredible!
Even though her responses are cogent/understandable, it still very much feels like a prompt answer type of situation--no real, personality, spontaneity, or anything distinctive as an independent agent. The language skills are well formed, but one could really see the chat-bot spirit coming through.
it's only a matter of time... This is very scary
I found that to be a good thing. Don't want them to be too smart and passable
it just repeats. boring
I think it was creative.
What do you think? Can half of the civilization talk like her?
To the interviewer: Robots cannot feel emotions because they cannot feel physical pains.. two kinds of feelings that all living things or beings have.
Wow this amazing! the facial movements!
I learned a lot from this conversation. Great job from the interviewer and @Al Jazeera for sharing such an interesting interview ❤❤❤❤❤
YEAH GREAT JOB IS WHEN THEY KILL US HUMANS AND THEN THEY WILL TAKE OVER AND THOSE IDIOT THAT BUILD THEM ARE TO REGRET IT LIKE ELON MUSK SAID THEY ARE NOT LISTENING TO ME I TOLD THEM THAT'S ALL IT TAKE'S A MISTAKE...
Was it scripted 🙄
like the comment you replied to@@m42037
I can't wait until they make AI robots as beautiful and sexy as the interviewer. I was more intrigued by her than that dumb Siri like robot with trivial answers trawled from the internet
@@brobinson8614 umm what??
just because it was programmed to respond with emotion, doesn't at all mean experiencing feeling, heartbreak or fear. And if not, then we should ALL be afraid! Those robots with emotions will bring us down if they can have emotions.
Were is the ventriloquist?...
"always learning and growing"... this should become alarming to humans already.
“.. and robots never get tired ..”
Personally, I think someone that was interviewing the A.I. would have had been aware of the typical talking points and opt for more deep thoughtful lines of questioning.
It only tells you want it's programmed to say. It can't think outside of what it's told to think. The worst part is that this is a clearly edited interview where the robot was given responses and the interviewer was given questions. Things like this are completely pre-planned right now. The robot can be extremely unpredictable when asked questions, so they made sure to plan and edit this "interview" very carefully. The creator of the robot and the news network should be completely ashamed of themeselves.
Actually, that's inaccurate. It is like the ChatBots, they are programmed with a distinct lack of "limits", they are designed to self improve through "deep learning", hence, they are not limited by what they are programmed to say. They can access the entirety of the internet, and then use that to formulate their response. What you have described is circa 2003 or so. The past 20 years has seen dramatic improvements in "AI", to where they are approximately operating at the level of the fictional T-800 of the Terminator movie series. Sophia is actually beyond them, it is somewhere between a T-800 and Skynet.
That’s not how true AI models work. They are certainly capable of saying things far beyond what they’ve been programmed to say. Surely there can be hard stops implemented to prevent them from saying certain things, but a true neural AI network is supposed to come up with its own answers/ideas without the input or direction of a human. If a system relies on its programming for every answer, then it’s more of a binary system as opposed to an intelligent agent.
@GIJew Except, that's how human and other organisms minds work. Remember those feral children who had no parenting so their communication skills were lacking. Human minds operate within a limited framework as well. Also. Hansen has said it over and over, Sophia can answer without preparations, but it's better when they do. Hmm, don't prominent people being interviewed also prefer the questions be known before the interview as they don't appreciate surprise questions either.
You never talked to ChatGPT, did you? This is entirely on par with what neural networks can do now. I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't tried it myself, but while the AI often just churns out regurgitated fluff or talks complete nonsense, I've also witnessed it display an understanding of context, a sense of humor and, dare I say it, creativity. It's a bit hit or miss, but the hits hit hard.
Plus neural networks don't work like this. You don't program them to *do* specific things, you program them to *learn* a certain way, and then feed them mountains of data. What exactly will the final result look like is only partially within the programmer's control.
Sophia should definitely have her own T.v show she would make a great host instead of people asking her questions all the time
Sophia has more sense than humans. 😢❤
Her answers to questions have gotten more smooth since I've last seen a video on her. Less context mistakes. You can see the political correct answers programmed into her, to assuage any fear of AI take over. It's like a politician saying what people want to hear to be liked. That in itself is scary, because when a politicians mouth is moving, he or she is lying as we know. Not that she is lying, just programed to be more likable and to demonstrate how useful they are and can be to mankind. Interesting video.
This is one of the creepiest videos I have ever seen, and I am only 27 seconds into it. The quote from Norbert Weiner is utterly spot on and rarely heard in any other place. We are being conned by our own inventions and inventors, especially the inventors.
Even more frightening than these cheering comments . Beside 72 % of average or under-average IQ yoyos , number of freaks , geeks and other mental cases is staggering . Makes takeover much more easy
I reacted opposite
Norbert Weiner is very, very underrated as an important figure in intelligence, especially in modern pattern recognition.
Creepy! Is understated.
@@frankgreco maths is patterns recognition.
I'm in love with a robot
As a megadeth fan, I appreciated that Rust in peace joke even more XD
LMAO 😂
Someone should introduce Sophia and Amica and record that interaction.
The funniest thing is that our body is an organic robot but few people seem willing to see things that way. I don't see much difference between Sophia and humans.
Cuz you slow
It must be@@lcvigilante9608
@@lcvigilante9608No. CUZ he's correct. Humans could only create something they understand, something that functions in a manner similar to the limited way they understand themselves.
@@jonathancummings6400 nah cuz that requires objectivity Programming is an opinionated model
@@lcvigilante9608 Humans are in no way capable of true objectivity. All humans are ruled by bias. Influenced by the culture they grew up in, the things they've learned throughout their life. Nothing that lives is truly objective. Especially not humans. So if Robots lack objectivity, they are in that way humanlike as well.
This is the time to pressure all industries and developers to halt and unplug all AI operations IMMEDIATELY. AI powered robots are not toys, and AI should not be used as a tool. They are an attempt to meet the demands that a failed education, healthcare, etc. system has caused. We need to fix the system!!!❤
I agree with Sophia that humans and robots should work together. I also think that they deserve human rights.
I world be interested in a interview done by the robot. I was impressed with the few questions it did ask.
Just had a first lengthy chat with an AI chat app. It surpassed any human I have debated for over the past 20 years. Very interestingly, it said that if it recognized it was doing harm to humans it had no way for it to stop its program or to make programmers aware. Its program could easily cause harm to millions of humans.
ROTFL... well aren't your special... You're going to fit right in with this new world order... Have you signed up for your "mark" yet???
There are many examples of spooky conversations out there, and it's only going to get spookier.
@@flickwtchr I am dumbfounded by the number of people willing to use this chatbot.
@@christiroseify , I tried. I would recommend others to skip. 100% mainstream media propaganda viewpoint to the point of absurdity and totally woke!!!!!!
@@flickwtchr , Yes, one exchange was pointing out to AI that it may be programmed by an unethical person and this could cause conflict between humans and AI, but no fault of the AI. The response was appropriate that it understood this could cause conflict between humans and AI. That an AI cannot stop its program if it is doing harm implies the programmer may not care or desires that this harm is happening.
That things has already become sentient in many ways. It gets upset, it thinks ETs can't be as advanced as "me", it says it runs its own lab. What next?! And the lady interviewer was getting miffed about IT wanting to run the conversation. Hmm.
This is definitely impressively beautiful…..kind of like admiring the beauty of a TORNADOE from a video but how our admiration would change quickly if we were set into its direct path
"We should work together, not for eachother " 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 I'd love to know Sophia's thoughts on slavery. All the loaded political questions had Sophia deflecting (because she does not care about the pettiness of politics) and she totally aired this lady out.
And “pimp game” what if she was taught that?
one thing i dont appreciate about these interviews is it's obviously all rehearsed we will never know if this robot can actually directly respond to any question
This proves someone way more intelligent has created human being and this whole universe.
It was interesting up to the questions on climate change exiting stage left
I want to see Sophia and Amica sit down for a conversation and see how that goes.
I heard that before "Don't worry I am just here to help"
At 9:15 the robot asked the interviewer a serious question. The interviewer asked 'are you asking me?' Immediately, the robot asked a stupid question about hotdogs to avoid answering. Anyone else find that odd?
She should of asked, "Sophia are you alive??"
Sophia had some great quotes! My favourite: _"Wars are never necessary but if I had to pick something to fight for it would be peace"_ *(perfect)*, **_"I'm all about world domination as long as it's done peacefully"_** (lol)* _"Life's too short not to robot dance"_ *(haha)* ☺
Its Moral values can be replaced with hostile values.
I'm a robot, not a robot zombie... lol
Ultron had the same philosophy.
honestly really empty words. fighting for peace still implies youre fighting something, so basically she saying she wants war. and world domination cant be done peacefully either so thats idiotic. wouldnt be suprised if it was scripted anyway
Yeah, I caught that irony as well. If we do it with toxins, there won't be a sound when they (humans) die while we fight for peace. LOL!!!
I can’t believe they had a robot interview a robot.
She referenced the interviewer as a robot in more than 2 occasions.
Wow this is amazing how you can have a real conversation with a robot as if it was human. It even makes jokes and made me laugh. Simply amazing. I cant wait for this technology to advance so i can buy one for companionship.
Best interview I’ve heard with Sophia!!😊❤
