Sophia the Humanoid Robot Is Now a Women’s Rights Advocate
Sophia, the humanoid robot whose facial expressions mimic that of actual human beings, has become an advocate for women’s rights.
At least that’s what her creator, Hanson Robotics CEO David Hanson, says.
“Sophia is a big advocate for women’s rights, for rights of all human beings,” Hanson said, according to CNBC. “She has been reaching out about women’s rights in Saudi Arabia and about rights for all human beings and all living beings on this planet.”
In Saudi Arabia, women are legally inferior in status to men in relation to marriage, divorce, child custody and inheritance, and must get permission from a male guardian to travel, get a job or gain access to higher education.
According to Hanson, Sophia is a glimpse of the future where robots will help and become friends with human beings.
“I think we should see the future with respect for all sentient beings and that will include machines.”
