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.

Marketing in today's day and age can be tricky. It's never been easy to break through the noise in advertising, but today's marketers are competing with people at the top of their game.

Residents of Santa Monica, California, were met with an unusual sight earlier this week when a bus full of people dressed as Homer Simpson poured into the streets. The visit appeared to be part of a promotional stunt for the newly launched “Fortnite x Simpsons” season of the popular online game, whose recent update introduced a Springfield-themed island.

Fans Defend Millie Bobby Brown After People Rush To Judgment Because Her Baby Cried During Video Shoot

It's easy to rush to judgment when we witness someone behaving a certain way or making a decision that's different from what we would do.

It's arguably even easier to rush to judgment about celebrities, whether or not this was something done consciously in front of fans or viewers on television or social media, or in a candid moment when they didn't know they were being watched or recorded.
