Nothing unusual to see here.
Video screenshot by Michelle Starr/CNETIt's popular to be afraid of the very concept of robots, to cry doom every time a robot does a thing. I am not afraid of robots, but I do find the uncay valley deeply discomfiting. Robots are simply unable to convincingly mimic humanity, and I see no reason to try.
Because when you do, apparently you end up with Hanson Robotics' Sophia. On display at SXSW in Austin, Texas, Sophia is the company's latest attempt to create a human-like robot, and the way her face moves is probably as human-like as a robot has ever gotten.
Sophia has 62 facial and neck architectures and a patented silicon skin called Frubber. She has cameras in her eyes that allow her to recognise faces and make eye contact. And she can participate in a conversation, using speech recognition software. She is even equipped with what Hanson Robotics calls its "Character Engine AI" software, or a personality.
David Hanson, who founded Hanson Robotics in 2003, wants to bring to the world "humanlike robots with greater-than-human wisdom." The team believes that humans will be able to build stronger emotional coections with robots that show a human-like expressiveness.
Sophia, which according to CNBC is based on Audrey Hepbu and Hanson's wife, is the next step towards service robots.
Initially, according to the Hanson Robotics website, their aim is robots for theme parks, followed care robots that can work with special needs children. The company has also worked in research, helping develop a robot to study the mental and physical development of infants.
"We are designing these robots to serve in health care, therapy, education and customer service applications," Hanson said.
Sophia has some ambitions of her own.
"In the future, I hope to do things such as go to school, study, make art, start a business, even have my own home and family, but I am not considered a legal person and caot yet do these things," she said. She also added, in response to a query from Hanson, "OK. I will destroy humans."
Hanson believes that one day robots and humans will be able to be indistinguishable, but that his preference would be to always have a way to tell robots and humans apart. If that means they have to look like Sophia, maybe that's not such a great idea.
