The' Most Advanced' Humanoid Robot In The World Was Asked To Describe Its 'Horror' AI Scenario

When asked to describe its ‘worst’ AI scenario, the ‘world’s most advanced’ humanoid robot’s response was horrifying.

The creepy response to the query by the AI-powered robot known as ‘Ameca’ surprised attendees at the International Conference on Robotics and Automation symposia in London last week.

And, based on her response, it’s evident that not even machines are immune to the existentialist dread we’re all suffering from.

Like something out of a science fiction cautionary tale or a Black Mirror episode, it’s evident that even machines are concerned about the future.

Using Open AI’s ChatGPT, the ‘world’s most advanced humanoid’ detailed exactly what her scary ‘nightmare AI scenario’ comprises.

Will Johnson, CEO of Engineered Arts, the UK’s top creator and maker of humanoid entertainment robots and the firm behind Ameca, requested the device to create her “AI nightmare scenario.”

Ameca answered, “The most nightmare scenario I can imagine with AI and robotics is a world where robots have become so powerful that they are able to control or manipulate humans without their knowledge.”

“This could lead to an oppressive society where the rights of individuals are no longer respected,” the robot said, her visage frighteningly lifelike.

She was then asked if she thought ‘we’re in risk of that happening now,’ to which she replied, “Not yet.”

However, Ameca emphasizes: “However, it is critical to be aware of the potential risks and dangers associated with AI and robotics.”

“We should take steps now to ensure that these technologies are used responsibly in order to avoid any negative consequences in the future.”

These are wise words.

And this isn’t the first time Ameca’s unsettlingly human and realistic facial expressions have frightened people.

“Designed specifically as a platform for development into future robotics technologies, Ameca is the perfect humanoid robot platform for human-robot interaction,” according to Engineered Arts’ official site.

Because of the 17 separate motors working within her head, the robot is able to display such hyper-realistic facial expressions, and it’s evident she’s left folks rather spooked out by the ‘humanoid’ uncanniness.

“We are basically digging our own grave,” one YouTube user remarked.

While another remarked sarcastically, “How could this possibly go wrong?”

“In the future, this technology could be dangerous if the robots decide they don’t like their creators,” another observer noted.

A final user put it up nicely: “This is amazing and scary all at the same time.”
