Samsung's new Neon project is finally unveiled: It's a humanoid AI chatbot

Neon's "artificial humans" look real. Neon's super realistic digital people are real. The mysterious company, emerging from the Samsung Technology and Advanced Research Labs (aka STAR Labs), debuted late Monday at CES 2020 here in Las Vegas. It described its technology, also called Neon, as "a computationally created virtual being that looks and behaves like a real human, with the ability to show emotions and intelligence." Basically, Neon makes video chatbots that look and act like real people.
