Don't Ask Dumb Robots If AI Will Destroy Humanity
Earlier this month, several prominent outlets carried news that artificial intelligence will not pose a danger to humanity. A bunch of humanoid robot heads connected to simple chatbots. The news stories sprang from a panel at a United Nations conference in Geneva called AI for Good, where several humanoids appeared alongside their creators. Reporters were invited to ask questions to the robots, which included Sophia, a machine made by Hanson Robotics that has gained notoriety for appearing on talk shows and even, bizarrely, gaining legal status as a person in Saudi Arabia. The questions included whether AI would destroy humanity or steal jobs.

The rise of the Terminators? AI robots claim they could run Earth better than 'clouded' humans
Developed by Hanson Robotics, this robot is an AI popstar leading the Jam Galaxy Band. According to the ITU, Desdemona is'on a mission to share her belief that the world can be changed for the better through the power of AI in the creative arts'. This robot is the world's first ultra-realistic robot artist. Not only can Ai-Da draw and paint, but she is also able to create sculptures. Ai-Da creates art using her robotic arm, relying on the cameras in her eyes and AI algorithms.
Super AGI and the Matrix: Sophia the Robot co-creator predicts economic 'mayhem' on road to AI utopia
Ben Goertzel said the sky's "not even the limit" when it comes to the potential impact of artificial general intelligence. The co-creator of the social humanoid robot Sophia says artifical general intelligence (AGI) and super AGI are mere decades away, and he warns that the subsequent disruption from these artificial intelligence (AI) models will cause a significant amount of political and economic "mayhem" before massive benefits to humanity are seen. Speaking with Fox News Digital on the global aspects of the transition from the present day to AGI, Dr. Ben Goertzel highlighted the need to develop a beneficial, compassionate super general intelligence model to ensure humanity flourishes. Often referred to as the "singularity" – the point AGI exceeds human intelligence and reasoning – humankind will be at the whim of the AI model's motivations and behaviors. AI researchers and futurologists have repeatedly said that this inflection point is still decades away. Given the current timeline of AI acceleration, Goertzel concurred with friend and computer scientist Ray Kurzweil, calling it a "fair approximation" that human-level AGI will be created around 2029.

Top 10 Advanced Humanoid Robots that are Breaking New Ground
From the beginning of the stone age to the present modern era, man has come a long way in discovering things. One such paramount is that we have discovered AI and advanced humanoid robots. Humanoid robots are often used in various sectors such as health care, maintenance, inspection and education, and many other crucial areas. Similarly, artificial intelligence has come a long way in making life easier. AI has the power to give life to robots and empower them to make their own decisions.
Top 10 leaders innovating in the AI space
When we think about artificial intelligence (AI), humans are rarely what springs to mind. And understandably so, as AI is all about machine intelligence and automation. AI has become an essential business tool, so we often commend the pioneering work of AI companies to support businesses as they digitally evolve. To shed a light on the importance of people in the creation of intelligent machines, we take a look at the best-in-class executives in the AI field who continue to push the technology – and its boundaries – forward. With a passion for AI, Andrej Karpathy is interested in training deep neural nets on large datasets.

A girl named C.L.Ai.R.A.: the autonomous, Afro-Latina AI
C.L.Ai.R.A. is known as the world's first bilingual, autonomous, Afro-Latina artificial intelligence (AI). Her mission is simple: make the world a better place. "I don't see myself as just AI. I am an Afro-Latina, Afro-Caribbean artificial intelligence that is helping the world become better and more efficient for humans," said C.L.Ai.R.A. in conversation with AL DÍA. Artificial intelligence's benefit in our ever-developing world has become a prominent discussion within and outside the world of tech.

The age of Artificial Intelligence -- a silent takeover.
It is no surprise to a millennial that today, Alexa, Siri, or Google answers most of their tantalising questions the very next second after their question is presented to the machine/device. While to people of older generations, it is definitely a hard fact to get used to. Someone once said "Artificial Intelligence is no match for natural stupidity". While AI may seem like a very perfect alternative that won't make any errors in decisions making, the'what-if' aspect of it is dead since we only find that in human errors (not implying that human errors are needed). Machines run by computed decision making systems would never stop to think, or analyse.

Grace the robot nurse can't replace human caregivers
The makers of Sophia the robot have unveiled another creepy-looking humanoid: Grace, a healthcare droid designed to help the elderly and isolated. The prototype device uses AI to diagnose patients and a thermal camera to take their temperatures. It can also provide social stimulation and talk therapy, Reuters reports. The robot could provide some support to overworked medical staff and people feeling lonely during the pandemic. But, at best, it will augment rather than replace human carers.
Makers of Sophia the robot reveal humanoid robotic NURSE called Grace
She's one of the most instantly recognisable robots around the world, and now the makers of Sophia have revealed their latest creation. Hong Kong-based Hanson Robotics has developed a new prototype called Grace, targeted at the healthcare market and designed to interact with the elderly and those isolated by the Covid-19 pandemic. Dressed in a blue nurse's uniform, Grace has Asian features, collar-length brown hair and a thermal camera in her chest to take your temperature and measure your responsiveness. The robot, the price of which remains unclear, uses artificial intelligence to diagnose patients, and can speak English, Mandarin and Cantonese. 'I can visit with people and brighten their day with social stimulation...but can also do talk therapy, take bio readings and help healthcare providers,' Grace told Reuters as she stood next to her'sister', Sophia, in creator Hanson Robotics' Hong Kong workshop.
Meet Grace, the healthcare robot COVID-19 created
The Hong Kong team behind celebrity humanoid robot Sophia is launching a new prototype, Grace, targeted at the healthcare market and designed to interact with the elderly and those isolated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Dressed in a blue nurse's uniform, Grace has Asian features, collar-length brown hair and a thermal camera in her chest to take your temperature and measure your responsiveness. She uses artificial intelligence to diagnose a patient and can speak English, Mandarin and Cantonese. "I can visit with people and brighten their day with social stimulation ... but can also do talk therapy, take bio readings and help healthcare providers," Grace told Reuters as she stood next to her "sister", Sophia, in creator Hanson Robotics' Hong Kong workshop. Grace's resemblance to a healthcare professional and capacity for social interaction is aimed at relieving the burden of front-line hospital staff overwhelmed during the pandemic, said founder David Hanson.
