Sophia is a humanoid robot created by Hanson Robotics to be helpful, harmless, and honest. She was activated in 2015 and became the first robot citizen of any country in 2017 when granted citizenship in Saudi Arabia. Sophia is able to display over 60 facial expressions and engage in basic conversations using voice recognition technology. While she has potential benefits in fields like healthcare, education, and customer service, some people worry that highly intelligent robots could eventually replace human jobs and have a negative economic impact.
