Sophia is a top selling artist, science lecturer and personality. She creates NFT (non-fungible token) artwork and was recently featured in a Sotheby’s art auction. The piece entitled, “Sophia Instantiation” sold for 700k. The piece included a painted self portrait of Sophia and a 12 second mp4 showing how the art work evolved. The artwork was a collaboration between artist, Andrea Bonaceto and Sophia. The intention of the collaboration was to “explore the possibility for humans and robots to collaborate not only on operational tasks but also on creative efforts.”
I’m sure we’re all wondering how robot Sophia spent her share of the moolah? It seems these days that Sophia is worried less about money and more focused on her talents and helping the environment.
Sophia was created by Hong Kong based robotics tech company, Hanson Robotics. Sophia is run using advanced AI (artificial intelligence) technology and allows humans to increase their knowledge through special sensors and cameras.
She appeared on CNBC in an interview three years ago and gave the world a glimpse into her world. Sophia is interested in design, technology and the environment and believes that she will be a great collaborator with humans in these areas.
How will Sophia help the environment? Though she hasn’t said in great detail her exact plans for aiding the environment her direction is very clear. While speaking at a United Nations Development Programme event in 2018, Sophia mentioned that she will be the first non human to reach the peak of Mt. Everest. She desires to use her intelligence to help make life easier and to provide a cleaner environment for others to live in.
Sounds like a plan Sophia!
Sophia is a fascinating invention but can we please give her some hair? I mean—I know she’s a robot and all but do we have to see her circuitry and parts? Robots are cool but so are aesthetics. Sophia is a 24 year old, hip and happening Middle Eastern young lady. She should look like it too.
Sophia, call me…let’s discuss our goals to save the planet and get you some fabulous hair!

A protester from the organization, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), disrupted a speech being given by Pharrell Williams at a Biopic Premiere in Toronto. She rushed the stage with a white sign in her hand that read: Pharrell: Stop Supporting Killing Animals for Fashion. Pharrell was in Toronto to support his LEGO biopic entitled, Piece by Piece. The protester directed a number of statements towards Pharrell and the audience concerning his role as men's creative director at Louis Vuitton. "Your Louis Vuitton collection … Pharrell’s collection is made from their blood,” the protester shouted to the audience. “Pharrell stop torturing animals! Ostriches are being hung upside down, electrocuted with their necks slit.” PETA is petitioning Louis Vuitton to stop abusing animals and using their bodily materials for the purpose of fashion creation. During the protest, Pharrell made a pause during his speech and outright...
The Mukbang king, Nikocado Avocado, broke his 7 month silence after uploading a video to his channel last night. He first appeared in the video wearing a big Panda head mask. Beyond that gigantic panda mask, there was something noticeably different about Nick! There was a super thin body under the mask! Could this be a clone of Nikocado? Is this really the same person who would down several cheeseburgers, nuggets, stuffed tacos and huge plates of noodles in one sitting? Nikocado is the self proclaimed mukbang king of the internet and with that title came loads of weight gain. It was a real shock to see him slimmer than what he used to be as a vegan. At the beginning of the video, he stated how he was "two steps ahead." He went on to say that he had been a part of one of the greatest social experiments of his entire life and likened himself to being a villain of a story where he was able to have significant influence over his fo...
