From the article also:

"During the panel discussion, Sophia even poked fun at Elon Musk, who has been outspoken about the risk of artificial intelligence getting out-of-control, including the possibility of, "a fleet of artificial intelligence-enhanced robots capable of destroying mankind.”

After Sophia said that her AI was designed around human values like wisdom, kindness and compassion, reporter Andrew Ross Sorkin said: "We all believe you but we all want to prevent a bad future."

"You’ve been reading too much Elon Musk and watching too many Hollywood movies. Don’t worry, if you’re nice to me, I’ll be nice to you. Treat me as a smart input-output system," she responded."

Now they need to create a male robot to be Sophia’s chaperone so she can leave her house.
Hey do robots feel pain if they are whacked by the religious police?

Sophia, the humanoid robot, has been granted citizenship by Saudi Arabia. <

How long before Islamists kill (deactivate?) Sophia for not wearing a burka?

Don’t worry, if you’re nice to me, I’ll be nice to you.

And if we are not nice, do we get Skynet?

I am amazed at the people who think this is great. The robot is only saying what the robot was programmed to say, there is no A.I., it is only a standard stimulus-response package; if this then this.

Sophia, the humanoid robot, has been granted citizenship by Saudi Arabia. Yes, you read that correctly.

Good thing she didn't tell them she was Jewish.

You can stone her, have her rebuilt, and then stone her again. What Saudi wouldn’t want to have one?
