An empty-eyed humanoid named Sophia has become the first robot in the world to be granted a citizenship. Saudi Arabia bestowed citizenship on Sophia ahead of the Future Investment Initiative, held in the kingdom's capital city of Riyadh on Wednesday. "I am very honoured and proud of this unique distinction," Sophia told the audience, speaking on a panel. "This is historical to be the first robot in the world to be recognised with a citizenship." She didn't elaborate on the details of her citizenship.

In March of 2016, Sophia's creator, David Hanson of Hanson Robotics, asked Sophia during a live demonstration at the SXSW festival, "Do you want to destroy humans?…Please say 'no.'" With a blank expression, Sophia responded, "OK. I will destroy humans." Hanson, meanwhile, has said Sophia and her future robot kin will help seniors in elderly care facilities and assist visitors at parks and events.

Saudi Arabia's Newest Citizen Is a Robot And She Just Had a Go at Elon Musk
demonstration n.示范;证明;游行示威;表露 SXSW South By Southwest西南边的南边，这是德州的地理 位置 这是一个每年都在美国德克萨斯州(Texas)举办的可能 是世界上规模最大的音乐盛典
Fortunately for the human race, Sophia made comments more along those lines at the recent Future Investment Initiative event. She told Sorkin she wanted to use her artificial intelligence to help humans "live a better life," and that "I will do much [sic] best to make the world a better place." Sophia could soon have company from other robotics manufacturers, namely SoftBank, whose Pepper robot was released as a prototype in 2014 and as a consumer model a year later.

Walmart is Rolling out Shelf Scanning Robots in Stores, but Says They Won't Replace People

At the event, Sophia also addressed the room from behind a podium and responded to questions from moderator and journalist Andrew Ross Sorkin. Questions pertained mostly to Sophia's status as a humanoid and concerns people may have for the future of humanity in a robot-run world. Sorkin told Sophia that "we all want to prevent a bad future," prompting Sophia to rib Sorkin for his fatalism. "You've been reading too much Elon Musk. And watching too many Hollywood movies," Sophia told Sorkin. "Don't worry, if you're nice to me, I'll be nice to you. Treat me as a smart input output system."

The company's U.S, CTO Jeremy King tells Reuters that the company won't actually be replacing any human employees with the robots. Head counts in stores will stay the same, with the robots augmenting the work of blue vested human employees. According King, the robots are 50-percent more product than people when it comes to the task at hand. The robots are also able to perform the job constantly, versus existing employees who only have the chance around twice a week.

The two-foot tall robots are pretty innocuous looking — they're basically rolling gray boxes with a large arm up top that sports on-board cameras. The arm scans the shelves, looking for sold out, missing or misplaced items. It's also able to identify when product is priced incorrectly. That information is then sent to a human coworker, whose job it is to re-stock, re-price or re-order.
Any automation evangelist will tell you that the goal of industrial robotics is to replace work that's “dull, dirty and dangerous.” As someone who's worked a fair number of retail gigs, I can tell you that inventory falls squarely into the first category. Walmart employees likely won't miss out on that bit as the mega-retailer begins rolling out shelfscanning robots to more than 50 stores across the U.S. evangelist 传教士 gig 工作；演唱会；双轮马车 retail 零售 inventory 库存
Of course, single purpose robots are generally not equipped to replace humans altogether, but Walmart is certainly making a big push to embrace technology on a much larger scale, as it attempts to stay competitive with the 800-pound online gorilla that is Amazon. As we noted recently, the company has been buying up startups as a brisk pace, and this move echoes the competition's big push when it transformed Kiva Systems into Amazon Robotics. embrace 拥抱；接受 gorilla 大猩猩 buy up 收购 brisk 轻快的; 兴隆的; 活跃起来; 变得轻快; echo 重复，随声附和;类似;发射（声音等）; 发出回声
