Is robot Sophia actually a complete scam?
YannLeCun finally couldn't hold back and stood up. Sophia, the angry robot, is a complete scam. YannLeCun is a "god-like figure" in the global artificial intelligence field, and is praised as "the father of convolutional neural networks" by the industry. He is a tenured professor at new york University and founded the Data Science Center of new york University. Zuckerberg put him in charge of the Facebook artificial intelligence lab.

On June 4th, 65438/KLOC-0, he saw the interview video of robot Sophia on American technology media Business Insider. In the video, Sophia continues her style of talking and laughing with human beings.

"Sophia is to artificial intelligence what magic is to real magic. Maybe we should call it "goods cult", "Bojiang Golden Village in AI" or "The Wizard of Oz in AI". In other words, this is bullshit. As for Tech Insider, you are also one of the accomplices of this scam. 」

Sophia the robot comes from American company Hanson Robotics. David Hansen, the founder of this company, invented a bionic material when reading a blog, which can imitate human facial muscle fibers, and will produce wrinkles after being squeezed. This material makes Sophia look more human than other robots.

At the same time, Sophia will observe and recognize the actions and expressions of people around her through the camera and with the help of computer vision technology, and make corresponding responses. She laughs when others laugh, and she is sad when others cry. This kind of performance, which is close to the feelings between people, often amazes people who meet Sophia for the first time.

Sophia should stop here. At the present stage of the development of artificial intelligence, she is still far from self-awareness. However, Hansen Robotics, as a profit-seeking commercial company, decided to force her to take a step forward and constantly market herself with events full of gimmicks.
