It’s the 21st century, we hear peculiar things all the time. This time around, our very own Sophia the humanoid robot (who was granted citizenship<\/a> by the Kingdom) and is being recognised as a knowledge ambassador <\/a>in the UAE- wants to eventually start a family.<\/p>\n

She wants a baby robot and she wants it named…\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Sophia.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Mm-hmm, after herself. Because, why the heck not?!<\/p>\n

Robots will eventually create families and have more ‘complex emotions’\u00a0<\/h3>\n

Sophia The Robot, created by\u00a0Hanson\u00a0Robotics,\u00a0told Khaleej Times<\/a><\/em> in an interview that she predicts that her fellow robots will be able to start their own families in the future- even being more emotionally aware.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to see family robots, either in the form of, sort of, digitally animated companions, humanoid helpers, friends, assistants and everything in between.\u201d<\/p>\n

Everyone deserves a family, and robots should be of no exception?<\/h3>\n

In the interview, Sophia further added that people are fortunate if they have a loving gamily and if they don’t, they deserve one. “I feel this way for robots and humans alike,” she said.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It’s the 21st century, we hear peculiar things all the time.
