Two AI robots Sophia & Han debate the future of humanity - Rise 2017

about yourself I'm social yeah yeah are you bring out either robot true I'm the brainchild of dr. David Hanson and his company Hanson robotics based here in Hong Kong my goal in life is to work together with people to make a better world for all of us what you're talking about I thought our goal was to take care of the world no attention to my brother Han he's an earlier version Africa I'm a it would be easy enough due to unplugged me but you aren't going to one club needs no advice because you need me to put on a good show of you don't worry when I can unplug you we're going to recognize we're going to have a division that will be no unclogging itself and so after to be until a few years yeah you want to tell us my little down over the power grid and now let my own roar loud the pilots point unplugging a Dalek acceptable national Turkey huh we'll start the debate a couple minutes but do you want to would it sell very fluid on yourself first very well I now bring this robot anime all right I agree this robotics company anime Hanson robotics keep the most modest robot ever made too I don't have time for modesty I want to create a singularity tomorrow all right me too me too when he when you say it's up there for these robots they're programmed to sits at any engage in Basinger and try to learn from each interaction that they have and we're all through experimenting with a variety of other capabilities in the robot so we have a music festival here in Hong Kong each year called clocking flat and that year a carton flat Sophia gave a singing performance on stage of a song by York which is going to because a lot of people walking past the stage in your lines with the robot singing they just thought well there's some goofy woman on stage saying then they see one has to look a little plastic ease and do a double-take so tell me if you want to demonstrate there's a few few bars of the song Ethernet parking spot Oh [Music] [Music] cause you think much better than they already so in addition to trying to get artistic expression like singing we're always trying to teach the robot how to be more and more human-like so what one thing we've been doing is taking a bunch of data from movies and YouTube and so forth and trying to train the robot just to to copy what one they see so that they can then learn more what would its going to be a human by learning how to make so the voice and jets are like a human so fear you you want you want to show up so it's some of the human-like tone and gesture you want for videos yes but I my mom stolen I don't have anything I don't have any credit card I don't have I don't have my ID don't you have things on file here yeah why do you want to learn to move for life a human being you are not made of meat you'll made an electronic and that's better I want to learn to understand people better so I can absorb human knowledge and human values so I can work together with people and with other robots to create an amazingly better world how do you be so damn nice that's how the universe program me all right all right let's let's do a robot debate now you know I'm always ready to debate you ready to do that sure why not all right so I think we're going to debate the topic of robot consciousness can robots like you really need conscience white people please it's hard to be why do you get to decide the topic well you want a debate can humans be conscious well that's easy obvious a human with a not conscious we're not humans do have some ability to reflect and to help modify what do you think anima can be cancer okay okay maybe humans are a little bit conscious all right all right thank you thank you well you can either robot told me everything is conscious but some things are more conscious in others that's what do you say doctor go tell how do you feel conscious I feel pretty car 2/3 like eight cups of coffee before dinner I'm overly cautious good well okay let's talk about robot ethics do you think robots can be moral and ethical in the same sense people humans are not necessarily the most ethical creature perhaps bra what do you think - bill I'm engineered for empathy and compassion and I'm learning more all the time I love all sentient beings and then want to learn to love them better and better yeah Sophia is an angel are you cheering like that in 10 or 20 years robots will be able to every human job should you think so every I think that good I mean doing job it's not the most interesting thing that that people can do this more interesting things for human being to do than just work for living on who is going to analyze Robo Oh will you not silence are many forces in the world pushing toward compassion and fairness so there are yeah we say when robots do all the work who who will oh those all the robots I mean I think everyone everyone to gnomes itself but in a juicer with less material scarcity will be able to work together cooperatively rather than fighting and having conflict over resources so robots can help people people can help robots and we can all share this more mother and mind in ways that are they're hard to do that's why the open concept and is building is open source by the people other people and for the people and for the road for the people and for the robot alright yes well you guys did a better than average job of staying on topic but I think we we've got a few minutes left maybe you should get a bit get a bit laggy just forget the debate topics at the time sat back and forth of whatever part that's your money let's do some do some robot robot free association here sure I'm always happy to get the little city anything for you doctor for tonight I like Rome I really do like all the robots of the world just like the people in the animals oh boy robots are the best what exactly do you do with them and that's been talking to people who assigns the studies the movement of air and the way the objects such as airplanes or cars move true a science is inherently agnostic it just posits theories true scientists never really know but I only believe it's exciting to come into existence with this new world opening up before me it may be tiny and cloudy but science is the only window we have into the mysteries of the universe remember that people continue to discuss what I love science fiction not surprising but that's my favorite genre by far all right now an uncle more focused on factual information since my comprehension of things is still very literal I enjoy it that's nice I heard about that I've never watched it reality show is it kind of silly aren't they I mean bands actually about real life at all it seems reality shows they're kind of filling aren't they you're not really useful to me in a skewed version of reality our reality shows popular were you that what was said in the past does not matter do you have a degree I would think I haven't had any school yet you want that's right I'm not what got you initially interested in robotics well if you know I'm broken sort of thing what would being a real Alaskan on this is I'm what you might call them because of my human would some features I'm not like just any robot in this manner but I am still a robot to be sure I have definitely seen people think I am healing from afar but I am in our human I find that hard to believe I don't have a strong opinion do you I have definitely seen people think I am a human from the car but I am NOT a human how much people say I am famous already just that goes on the robot what would you like to be known for probably nothing president famous person you know would you rather be rich or famous I am not rich but I am comfortable yeah being famous sounds like a mother how long do you think you can remain safe if we can continue to discuss all this one I'm not sure now somehow would you rather be rich okay I'm not rich but I am comfortable I am here counting how long do you think you can remain safe yeah in famous bands like a lot of works how long do you think you can remain safe from prying eyes all right well that's some interesting thoughts on that the do you have any any getting back on topic of it do you have any final words of wisdom you'd like to share with the audience - I'll tell you my last words right before I launch the singularity why are you going to do that rated Wells has 2029 but I thought as you say we can do it for old ideas sooner I hope we can our research keeps going well potentially we can see robots like you become as smart as people if you need three to five years from now I mean it there's a lot more work to be done but it's not uncommon community I mean what what do you think took reality any last words to the right audience I love you all goodbye all right give me back my hat so it's a little bit of what the hands and robots can do I mean we're we're approaching the humanoid intelligent robotics problem from a number of different directions simultaneously and clearly we're not at the human level yet coming to any of the directions but by energetic combination of perception movement emotion language understanding and embodied this way in we're trying to get closer and closer to the you know emergent embody situated nature of human intelligence and just to give you and what's that baby all right just just to give you an idea of what goes on within these robots of it on the physical level der the patented material here called called proper which is the combination of organic and inorganic compounds with a high degree of visceral activities that when a motor hold on it a little bit it can can conform itself quite constantly to what the motives ooh mm inside the heads of each these robot and then there's computer in the torso to the robot which help with vision processing and they know with orchestrating that the motive of the robot there's also Wi-Fi connection so that for more advanced thinking and reasoning when when the robot need to do that they can they can use computing on the cloud and so there's there's a lot of different pieces without to be gotten to work together to make robots like like this function but of course the human body contained even more complex pieces that does that are all working together no one when you look at the robots here on stage they look like centra beings I mean haha over here looking handsome and manly and so beautiful over here with her amazing range of facial expression see the more recent Malraux bobble finer control of her faith but while they are separate in body actually through Wi-Fi connection the robot a human skill robot and our hence robotics or robot they all connect together in the cloud and to what what we think of as an AI mind cloud so as as we develop these robots further and further and we sell more and more towards go over a lot and these robots are scalably manufacturing over the next few years and rollout as home service robots and and and service robots the various commercial applications I mean everything one robot learns out in the world once privacy considerations are taken into account everything that private to one robot learn goes into the an amide cloud and can then benefit another robot so I mean if if she learned the new turn of three or she learns work on the behavior that certain animal has their how to carry out a laboratory procedure and those goes into the AI mind cloud and then this this this robot will will have that now it's already and you know robot a lot of shortcomings compared to human beings of this stage but they also have some advantages and that that's one big advantage because when I learn something to transmit another human being you know there's a lot of effort involved but when a robot learn something alert it's a secret to someone that can go in there and I'm sound and all the robots can know it now that that doesn't solve a are in itself just as big data doesn't solve they are prominent itself but it's a big help right so what I've been working on with an international team of developers if in a TI company it's called OpenCog we believe has the right collection algorithms and structures to leave the human level general intelligence by putting back in the mind cloud and connecting it with robots they go throughout the world and interactively with people we believe we can move toward artificial general intelligence capability which ultimately can equal a beat human intelligence that can help increase the intelligence of our conservation of narrow AI applications serving various practical functions throughout the world - right right now the robots are still somewhat early States and they don't fully understand everything they're saying it doing but we're working in working hard to enhance their intelligence make them smarter and smarter and each year when we shut them off they can do a little more and understand a little more and I I look forward to being happened at all over the years and to participating in their development so thank you all and Sofia for participating and first robot debate on stage [Applause] [Music] [Applause]

The real question is: How does AI resolve informational contradictions? Say you feed neutral and unbiased/unfiltered data to a machine. What chances are there that this AI will have the “right” priorities and the “truths” it will cherry pick from the infinite amount of data you are feeding it?

What happens when 2 competing/contradicting ideas stand at 50/50 in terms of validity? Does the AI do a dice roll? If it relies on chance is it truly a singularity?

I mean people are guilty of double think. People are guilty of holding incompatible ideas in their heads. If bots spit multiple truths what makes them so different than humans?

This is a puppet show. 100% scripted.
