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!
The FDA has moved to finally ban Red Dye No. 3 from use in food and drugs in America. Red Dye No. 3 was first determined to be a cancer causing color additive almost 30 years ago. Studies conducted using labs rats found that they became inflicted with the disease after consuming large amounts of Red dye No. 3. Thirty years ago, the FDA officially banned Red Dye No. 3 from use in cosmetics but left the door open for it to be used as a color additive in food and prescription drugs. By January 2027, the FDA has ordered that Red Dye No 3 must be removed from all food in the USA and by 2028--from all drugs.

There's a green company in town that is creating something out of nothing. That something is delightfully rich butter. This butter is vegan and made from thin air. Yes--you heard that right. The butter is made from air; utilizing real fat and without any impact to the environment. Savor is the company behind this new and revolutionary fat making process. To make the butter or fat, a carbon source is heated with hydrogen and is later mixed with oxygen from the air. Photo by Savor Savor was founded by Kathleen Alexander in San Jose, California.

The path of aging can be viewed as a bothersome, inevitable part of life to some. Those invested in the journey often look to various methods of biohacking as a way to lengthen what can be considered a short life span. The average life expectancy for women is 80 years old and 74 years old for men. Living to 100 years old may seem inconceivable but the reality is that there are individuals living past 100 years old. According to the Pew Research Center, our global world is home to 722,000 centenarians most of whom live in Asian countries such as Japan and China (Schaeffer, 2024). The number of centenarians currently living is expected to quadruple over the next 30 years. Will people begin to live past 200 and 300 years old in the near future? As scientific discoveries continue to be made and longevity focused breakthroughs are attained, humans will live longer and more intelligently. What are ...
