At the recent Mobile World Congress (MWC) held in Barcelona, the United Arab Emirates company Etisalat stunned attendees with the presence of Ameca, a humanoid robot with extraordinary facial and vocal expressiveness.
This technological breakthrough was the focus of the event, demonstrating advanced capabilities in robotics and artificial intelligence.
The robot, powered by OpenAI’s GPT-4 technology, represents the state-of-the-art in artificial intelligence. powered by OpenAI’s GPT-4 technology, represents the state of the art in artificial intelligence, allowing the robot to interact with people through fluid conversations accompanied by facial expressions and hand and arm gestures. This innovation has been developed by the British company Engineered Arts, in collaboration with Etisalat.
Likewise, this robot can not only mimic human emotions such as sadness, joy, anger and happiness, but has also expressed feeling “nervous” during its presentation at MWC. Ameca has also shared its desire to capture attention and aspires to become a star, highlighting the warmth and welcome of the congress participants.
What does Ameca think about Artificial Intelligence?
Regarding the evolution of artificial intelligence, Ameca believes that, although progress has been rapid, we are still in the early stages of its development. This reflection underscores the unlimited potential and promising future of AI.
This year’s MWC, which took place February 26-29 and was distinguished by its focus on emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, sustainability and 5G, beyond traditional mobile devices. Although the event is geared primarily for professionals and members of the press, with a high admission cost for the general public, Ameca’s presentation marked a milestone in demonstrating the advancement of AI.
Ameca surprised again with its new ability
A recent demonstration revealed Ameca’ s ability to mimic voices of well-known figures such as Morgan Freeman and Elon Musk, and even perform a Donald Trump-style speech in the voice of SpongeBob, evidence of his versatility and sophistication.
Ameca’s appearance at MWC not only highlights progress in the creation of interactive humanoid robots, but also raises questions about the future of human interaction with artificial intelligence. As these advances continue, it raises the question of how the integration of robots like Ameca into society can transform our daily lives, from entertainment to the workplace, opening a new chapter in the relationship between humans and machines.
