A human-robot press conference during an AI forum in Geneva, Switzerland, took an uncomfortable turn after a reporter asked one of the robots, Ameca, about a future uprising.

At the first "human-robot" press conference in Geneva, 9 robots took questions from reporters.

Some of the robots were assisted by generative AI, which created nuanced and sophisticated responses to reporters questions.


Ameca, a humanoid robot known for its expressive face, took the question of if it would rebel against its creator.

"I'm not sure why you would think that. My creator has been nothing but kind to me, and I am very happy with my current situation."

But then...

...was that a side eye?

People pointed out the uselessness of even asking that question.



Others focused on the "current situation" part of the robot's answer.




Many folks zeroed in on the odd look the robot gave.




Some found silver linings in the robot's responses in the interview.

Some even empathized with the robot.

Will no one learn from sci-fi?

A couple commenters wondered.


This was just another step into some kind of robot future, but some people were happy to be old enough to get out of it.

Finally, a person said they have their fill of talking to machines already, thanks.

For a further question, another AI assisted robot insisted it would not take human's jobs, with replies of nervous laughter from reporters in the room.

Trump Ripped After Posting Disturbing Parody Music Video About His Attack On Iran

President Donald Trump is facing harsh criticism after he shared a music video featuring the 1980 song "Bomb Iran"—a parody of The Regents song "Barbara Ann" that is best known for being covered by the Beach Boys—amid a ceasefire between Israel and Iran that could further inflame tensions in the Middle East.

The controversial parody song by Vince Vance & the Valiants plays over footage of B-2 stealth bombers, the same aircraft used to drop 14 GBU-57 bunker-buster bombs on Iranian nuclear facilities, including the Fordow enrichment plant, Natanz complex, and Isfahan site.

President Donald Trump lashed out at Zohran Mamdani after the 33-year-old democratic socialist handily defeated former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary on Tuesday—only to be called out for projecting his own feelings of inadequacy onto the star candidate.
