Facebooks head of Artificial Intelligence actually hates Sophia
Sophia, the robot is a bit of non-persona non grata in the AI community. The creators of Sophia, Hanson robotics, regularly exaggerate the robots abilities and pretend that it's basically human and alive rather an a form of unnerving automation. For researchers in the AI field, this has been an annoyance for a long time. However, since artificial intelligence is currently a hot topic globally, Sophia is getting worldwide coverage. Researchers are angry that the Hanson Robotics team is misleading the people about what AI can and cannot do.
