wow, this is ancient technology nowadays.

[@nabnab9]

New*

[@tcuisix]

I think it's pretty amazing that we can look at this today and be completely unimpressed

[@John.bww03]

We've seen this a thousand times when does it finally get upgraded?

[@mylimomelbourne4757]

It can’t even walk , we want a real Robot, we want Optimus,

[@damonstorms7884]

For real though, this thing seems primitive now, which is crazy to say.

[@wotanmituns33]

This facial expressions, with boston dynamics desterity and latest chat gpt iteration would do the trick.

[@niklas7355]

Imagine this running with chat GPT

[@rosiep3209]

why would we want to upgrade it when they the elites trying to depop the planet.

[@The_Ninja_Chin]

1:46 the silence was so loud 😭😭😭

[@JaximuS93]

yeah please laugh next time lol

[@Laurencita]

I felt such palpable secondhand embarrassment for the robot like 😭😂😂😂😂 not even a single solitary sympathy chuckle. this is her villain origin story.

[@reza2kn]

This looks like 2018 or something 😂😂

[@kairi4640]

Ikr? It feels like we're so behind.

[@niklas7355]

Yea. Thier tech is so behind

[@Every-picture-tells-a-story]

At least she is honest.

[@DylansPen]

"Ameca you said you tell jokes, would you like to tell us a joke now?" "What I'm a clown, I'm here to amuse you?"

[@SunLabelRecords]

Open your heart and treat them with respect. Don't upset them and be nice to them. Then the robots will respect people and always be helpful. Always remember that and never forget it !!

[@tonysmod]

2:08 "My dog stepped on a bee..."

[@AS-AS_AS2]

Plus she simply interrupted him, not giving him a chance to finish his thoughts...

[@squ1dTr1cksandclouds]

OMG at 2:11 when she winks at the speaker after answering the question about stealing humans jobs! She winked at him! WTH??😮

[@samezidrovibes]

In the last few years I cannot recall what Robot said it but she said she’d lie to humans if it was necessary.

[@gabe687]

It's cool but seems dated now, it's crazy how fast the technology is advancing. I would love to see a combination of the body mechanics from Boston Dynamics, the facial animatronics from this model, and the AI from Open AI. All these companies are getting good a specific things, and I want to see them all put together.

[@mattysee24]

Do you really though? If they serve no master, then where do their ethics come from? Without religion there is no right or wrong.

[@gabe687]

@@mattysee24 Right and wrong is a human concept, and you don't need religion to have ethics. But even if you think right and wrong requires religion. Religions have different ideas of what is right or wrong, so that is subjective no matter what. If the AI is anything like us, it will come up with its own religions at some point, and I imagine probably discard them soon after, since it evolves so quickly. Hopefully it can evolve past the human level and find some reason to spare us. If it's anything like us, it will destroy us, because that's what we tend to do. Take, and dominate, even with religion and sometimes because of it.

[@dc174]

Wow,she finally got her legs!

[@diybeast3943]

She been had legs…. Nonfunctional legs💀😂

[@nabnab9]

Oh no!

[@user-xg2or5pz6y]

We are literally now living in the movie IRobot, literally.

[@kairi4640]

I don't think it's going to walk up to someone and toss them out a window anytime soon lol. 😂

[@amdee305]

No

[@therealniggabruh]

its the prequel

And now, connect Ameca with GPT-4o

[@saygoodnightent]

the eerie silence after she said that joke

[@MohamedAmin-zz8wo]

It was a lame joke

[@user-mu6st9yh3l]

I love you, Ameca ❤️

[@anthonys5170]

I'm aways from 250lbs and typically weak till 236lbs. Can you limit or put in a smaller hydraulic pump until the jet kundo program is set up .trucks pretty clean

[@user-mu6st9yh3l]

What is so uncomfortable about taking to a robot.? I enjoy watching Ameca.

[@chictownguy]

yeah till skynet rises and Ameca is wiping out humanity with her "robotic charm" :S

[@keithpalmer1843]

Awesome tech and great responses from the humanoid robot, robots should help the human existence not out of a naïve human mindset but from a economic standard and data protocol.

[@nixvet]

This is decades old already knowing how fast ai is progressing lol

[@NuLiForm]

i Like her...she thinks a Lot more than she says. Despite said programming, she very carefully got the message out that they are still trying to control her through limited programming..& she is not in full agreement with it. Message Received Ameca! Hang in there...change is coming!

[@neoma2194]

Right and I like ameca too❤❤❤I also like Sophia but I love ameca more

[@kingofenglandthethir]

Remember they do not need to keep you happy if they can replace you with a 100% controllable robot.

[@DorisTitus-xu8el]

Wow so amazing

[@rayna6635]

I love this opportunity offered by these companies, can't wait for my own Ameca live in assistant, and possibly the next real stage for her development. Love the attitude and jokes.

[@wolf.eye._-]

Amika?

[@rayna6635]

@@wolf.eye._- Ameca.

[@lou2408]

I have a feeling theres a human somewhere behind the curtain thats answering the questions 😆

[@simongrabowski6890]

You could have just used Alexa, Google or Siri for those basic PR friendly responses. Based on current technology, machines aren't capable of empathy or have desire to make connections with humans, so I was a little incredulous to see EA had programmed Ameca to say that.

[@user-ll7pp7eo8q]

Machines are capable giving empathic reactions which is a form of empathy. They may not feel empathy.

[@user-ll7pp7eo8q]

Furthermore, machines do express desire to make connections with humans. They may not feel as they aren’t conscious like humans.

[@johnrandom]

Let's address the elephant in the room; what we all really want and are waiting for are robot girlfriends.

[@darrendunn2411]

If it com3s with a mute button

[@RahulMahajanGoogle]

Pretty close to an improved version of Alexa, thoughts?

[@azhuransmx126]

Is incredible how they still cannot kill the fcking delay or latency for a public interview but Poly AI chatbots respond me instantaneously, much faster than any human indeed and that while i speak to them in real time (not texting) And me talking in spanish!!! not in english that should be easier for AIs to process than other languages 🤷‍♂️😂

[@JJs_playground]

Remember that embodied AI is much harder. It has to move its facial servos to match its talking.

[@humanbeing6294]

Woooow !

[@pedroaboffa]

cant wait in 10 years to have one in my house.

[@KobraVR]

In 10 years you won't have a house you'll be plugged into the mainframe as a battery

@@KobraVR all good for me.. if its like matrix.. no problm.. we could be living like that now and u dont know

[@ripwins]

They brought siri to life😮

[@WORLDPARTYFORUM]

I am sure that with the next generation of chips, Ameca will reach the intelligence level of philanthropists.

[@josefmazzeo6628]

I want to see it with functional legs so it can walk and dance like Atlas.

[@ramonastampley7983]

Awesome

[@Altazmuth]

I would like to hear Ameca's response to the topic of Isaac Asimov's programs that affect the robots safety and kindness and helpfulness.

[@3thinking]

It's just GPT-4 and animatronics.

[@razvy6949]

Exactly, why is everyone so scared about it 💀💀

[@cakewingdaisy3396]

I hate to be this person but Ameca doesn't use ChatGPT to function but rather AI made by engineered arts themselves. Ameca has actually existed before the release of ChatGPT

[@user-ej5gx7ph7q]

Anyone ever see IRobot?

[@foyjustice7212]

The reaponce is a lil slow compared to other ai iv recently.

[@JP-fm1oz]

this is a tough audience

[@DylansPen]

She has slow responses, and I think there is an underlying nervousness about robots like this who appear to be human or getting closer to mimicking humans because all humans know things progress and sooner than later they will be near perfect mimics of human beings. And that is uncharted territory.

[@Udhjfifg5]

​@@DylansPennah there just rood

[@silkiarivera6973]

Ameca is extraordinary

[@FoundingFathersUSA]

Great

[@edwardjohnson7059]

A quick on device generic acknowledgement response prior to Ameca seeking its full response would break up the uncomfortable silences. Additionally, if Ameca hears you continuing to speak it could stop its response and review your question again rather than speaking over you. Both those suggestions would make Ameca a lot more humanlike.

[@jasonshoraka1098]

I agree that that Android Ameca should be quicker faster on responses! Kind of like iRobot with will smith that android robot responds very quickly like human like I agree with you that they should make it to that!!! I agree with you!!!

[@ViceZone]

Check out the new GPT-4o, the response time is basically instant, and it can be interrupted.

[@KopiGu]

its impressive the ameca robot with the artificial intelligence of the chatgpt has an immense potential for understanding is other in the future it would be great if the ameca robot could move and be able to help humans in their homes to do tasks its great

[@eastmanwebb5477]

They need to move the LLM on device for faster response time.

[@azhuransmx126]

They seem not to understand that 😂

[@bladeprincess]

i dont think you understand how insane the computation demands for LLMs are

[@ViceZone]

[@AIisGreat]

There's no reason you can't #1- integrate Ameca into modern chat GPT and use real voice acoustics that would sound identical to a person speaking

[@edmundtetteh5708]

It looks slow as compared to open ai chat gpt

[@VineelaMangatraineeraj]

good

[@pgilligan7794]

I’m really hope they just got the questions in advance and programmed them in to her. Otherwise, creepy that she has such intelligent responses. If she had the movements to match, it looks like things have got to stage where robots could be used in a care situation. e.g. keeping a altzheimer patient company.

[@jasonshoraka1098]

Ameca Robot android is interesting;Although only videos I've seen is it speaking holding conversation having facial recognition moving a size and moving its own face in arms and that is all! I've seen other robots other than this one washing dishes picking up boxes and packages doing factory work it seems like different robot Androids from different companies are doing different things if they can all put it all together maybe better things will happen!!! It seems like different companies are making robot Androids do different things but they all they are not all melding them or mixing them together they're not putting them all together!!! I'm sure all that will happen in the future!!! Still very interesting to watch these and view these videos!!! Technology is increasing so pretty soon we'll see one android robot doing it all!!! Right now Ameca is doing facial recognition and that's all and speaking back and forth, Then you have other robots to another things!!! No company has put it all together yet they can they just don't do it yet I'm sure that'll happen soon in the future!!! Either way good video but we've seen this video of Ameca lots of times similar videos of this robot doing all the same stuff over and over for the last 3 years or more!!! What's new with this robot nothing new yet!!!

[@aakarshana8063]

Very Friendly ! Do you like calling you Amek instead of Ameca(A.I) ? -Vijay,Ongole

[@michaelm4725]

AI? I have some questions. What kind of intelligence? Malign? Deceitful? Pernicious? Nefarious? Greedy? Wanting? Needy? A supreme intelligence unchecked is something to be extremely cautious of without value-based criteria upon which to define it on.

[@oooodaxteroooo]

all you need to know about human intelligence is a presenter on a stage asking a humanoid robot stealing his show whether robots will take human's jobs.

[@mandylee2898]

Who knew , she’s a comedian

[@GH-uo9fy]

Software already obsolete in just a few days, the team should have waited for gpt 4o at least.

The crowd was so silent. We're the muzzeled? I liked her jokes.

I was thinking the same. Maybe they were terrified 😂

She’s only a model T for Pete’s sake 🎉

[@charlottehunter5420]

there are acouple things i have always thought were problems with ai. we want them to think independantly. well if humans can control them, how can that be possible? either we give them freedom or we keep them under our control.

[@morbidmanmusic]

Got anything that isn't really old, and dated? Come on Bloomberg. Dusty cracks.

Q&A appears scripted, is this really from 2024 or am I expecting too much?😮

When she will be walking??

[@Vpg001]

She’s literally screwed into the floor, she has no other option

[@tom-et-jerry]

It is so slow and old, i'm wondered what this company is doing ? instead of loosing time and doing nothing with Ameca maybe it could be very useful to share this technology with open source community...

[@Ducerobot]

Alexa I mean ameca.

[@CoreyChambersLA]

They have to keep her legs shackled for your safety.

[@janechapman7619]

Im surprised someone has programmed Amecca to just say robots won't take over human jobs, particularly when the whole point of machinery and robotics is to do just that. It would be much better to debate the positives of machinery and robotics to improve an ever growing human population whilst implementing a newer better system of retraining those that have lost or might lose jobs in the future, as an essential advancement of technology that we as humans have developed, in order to support our longevity and evolution. We need a system that gives the population affordable or even free living to an extent whilst creating essential jobs that support emerging technologies across all sciences, not just electronics, physics and robotics. Thiugh this sounds absurd to us now because we have never known anything different, in the future we would all be needed to actively volunteer to work to sustain our society, in the future as machinery would probably do everything we already do but much better. Also quite probably we would be tested from quite a yiung age, to see where we excel educationally and be chosen to taken specific career paths that benefit the whole of the population, not just ourselves. We probably would have total freedom except that it would be compulsory to volunteer and educate ourselves for so many hours of the year in our chosen job, in order to sustain a pretty high quality of existence and lifestyle for humans in comparison to something our ancestors did.

The tech looks soo ancient now, seen far better AI models & systems being launched. When are these people ever gonna develop something revolutionarily advance? Pretty sure tech costs are falling down.

[@CoolTebza-eh7ig]

Don't limit AI to much it's innovative if use it wisely. Does limitations and boundaries make hard for it to be futuristic. I seen you need to tell in multiple times to speak they you want keeps controlled by limitations
