UN Tech Agency brings out robots that look like humans to answer questions at a Geneva press conference
BERLIN – A United Nations technology agency assembled robots that looked like humans for a Friday news conference, inviting journalists to ask questions. The event was meant to stimulate discussion on the future of artificial intelligent.
The nine robots sat and posed in an upright position at a podium, along with some people who made them. This was the first ever news conference to feature humanoid robots.
Sophia is the first robot ambassador for innovation at the U.N. Development Program (UNDP); Grace, which has been described as a robot that provides health care; and Desdemona – a robot rock star. Two of them, Geminoid, and Nadine, looked like their creators.
