Sophia, the 3-year-old humanoid robot set foot on the African continent for the first time this week. She was created using breakthrough robotics and artificial intelligence technologies developed by David Hanson and his friends at Hanson Robotics in Hong Kong.
We got to see her in action, chatting with Carte Blanche’s Devi Sankaree Govender. It was impressive, to say the least.
She was in Johannesburg, South Africa to take part in the SAP Now conference as one of the panelists. She had a brief conversation with the Managing Director of SAP in Africa, Cathy Smith. She even spoke a local language, isiZulu.
