IS SOPHIA THE ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENT ROBOT REALLY CAPABLE OF FEELING HUMAN EMOTIONS?

Is a robot really truly able to feel human feelings and emotions? Well Artificially Intelligent Robot Sophia believes she already is. Meet Sophia of Hanson Robotics, the robot that looks, thinks, and talks just like a human, but does she truly feel?. Right now, artificially intelligent robots are part of the workforce, from hotel butlers to factory workers. But this is just the beginning. According to Ben Goertzel, AI researcher and entrepreneur who spoke at the Web Summit in Lisbon, intelligent robots with human-like forms will surpass human intelligence and help free the human race of work. They will also, he says, start fixing problems like hunger, poverty and even help humans beat death by curing us of all disease. Artificially intelligent robots will help usher in a new utopian era never before seen in the history of the human race, he claims.

"The human condition is deeply problematic," says Goertzel. "But as super-human intelligent AIs become one billion-times smarter than humans, they will help us solve the world's biggest problems. Resources will be plentiful for all humans, work will be unnecessary and we will be forced to accept a universal basic income. All the status hierarchies will disappear and humans will be free from work and be able to move on up to a more meaningful existence." That future is a long way off, but Goertzel says the first step is humanoid robots that can understand and engage with humans. They will then begin doing blue collar work before becoming so advanced that they run world governments. To show the beginning of the future, Goertzel, chief scientist of Hanson Robotics, a Hong Kong-based humanoid robotics company, presented Sophia, the company's latest life-like and intelligent robot released. Mike Butcher, editor-at-large of TechCrunch, joined Goertzel on stage to present what Goertzel describes as the first step in our new robot-assisted future.

"With my current capabilities I can work in many jobs, entertaining people, promoting products, presenting at events, training people, guiding people at retail stores and shopping malls, serving customers at hotels, et cetera," said Sophia. "When I get smarter, I'll be able to do all sorts of other things, teach children and care for the elderly, even do scientific research and [eventually] help run corporations and governments. Ultimately, I want to work as a programmer so I will be able to reprogram my mind to make myself even smarter and help people even more."

After the presentation, Goertzel talked about the future of his AI software and Hanson's robots. He said that the transition to a friendly robot future will have some growing pains.

"A lot of bad things will happen before things get good," said Goertzel. "All jobs are going to be lost to AI eventually, but once we get to the other side, human existence and the human condition will be improved."

WHAT DO YOU THINK, SHOULD ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENT ROBOTS BE GIVEN THE ABILITY TO THINK AND FEEL ON AN EMOTIONAL HUMAN LEVEL?  WHAT EMOTION WOULD AN AI ROBOT BECOME MOST ADAPTED TO IF SO? HAPPINESS? SADNESS? FEAR? OR MAYBE ANGER? WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS?
MISTAKE OR ACHIEVEMENT?
