To update one of our previous posts on the robot Sophia, this is the updated version, below.
This is just a little post to remind those friends of mine who do not believe that robots will be able to arrive at the intelligence level of human during our life time.
Please allow me to share few videos indicating at what stage robots are at now.
Jimmy Fallon demos amazing new robots from all over the world, including an eerily human robot named Sophia that plays rock-paper-scissors, in the video “Tongiht Showbotics: Jimmy Meets Sophia the Human-Like Robot“, below:
Remember Sophia’s duet with Jimmy Fallon? To create Sophia’s singing voice Hanson Robotics joined up with CereProc, a text to speech (TTS) technology company that creates synthetic voices with character and personality, in the video “The Making of Sophia: Sohpia’s Singing Voice“, below:
Sophia the Hanson Robot on stage at the Clockenflap music festival in Hong Kong in 2016 — with Amanda Hanson, Audrey Lee and Ben Goertzel Video taken by Ruiting Lian from the audience… One cool thing about this performance was that not everyone in the audience at the time realized it was a robot singing. Some realized only when they saw her plastic hands (which had intentionally been left ungloved and robot-looking)…. in the video “Sophia the Hanson Robot singing “All is Full of Love” at Clockenflap 2016“, below:
It’s time for Holly and Phil to meet Sophia, one of the most intelligent robots in the world. Using artificial intelligence, Sophia can communicate with people and even use facial expressions to convey emotions – looking eerily human as she does so. Sophia, who’s a UN Ambassador and even holds citizenship, prepares a drawing of Holly & Phil and joins us in the studio alongside her creator, Dr David Hanson, in the video “Phillip & Holly Interview This Morning’s First Robot Guest Sophia, This Morning“, below:
Hanson Robotics Limited’s Ben Goertzel, Sophia and Han at RISE 2017. Now for something that’s never been done onstage before. While they may not be human, our next guests are ready to discuss the future of humanity, and how they see their types flourish over the coming years, in the video “Two robots debate the future of humanity“, below:
Ben Goertzel joins Sophia The Robot and Han The Robot on stage! Robot intelligence becomes more impressive with each passing year, but when will AI actually surpass humans? In the video “Determining when robots will rule the world- Ben Goertzel“, below:
Sophia travels to Palm Beach, Florida, to meet with Tony Robbins during our Date With Destiny event — and Tony did not hold back on asking some tough questions! Here are some highlights from their conversation where they talked about everything from how Sophia’s makers have influenced and shaped her A.I., to their shared commitment to helping humans experience a better quality of life! In the video “Meet Sophia, World’s First AI Humanoid Robot, Tony Robbins“, below:

For more about Sophia (robot), please refer to the excerpt from wikipedia, in italics, below:
Sophia is a social humanoid robot developed by Hong Kong-based company Hanson Robotics.[1] Sophia was first turned on on February 14, 2016,[2] and made her first public appearance at South by Southwest Festival (SXSW) in mid-March 2016 in Austin, Texas, United States.[3]
Sophia has been covered by media around the globe and has participated in many high-profile interviews. In October 2017, Sophia “became” a Saudi Arabian citizen, the first robot to receive citizenship of any country.[4][5] In November 2017, Sophia was named the United Nations Development Programme‘s first ever Innovation Champion, and is the first non-human to be given any United Nation title.[6]
