Many people believe robots can become 'the lord' of humans in the future.

The introduction of Ameca, an incredibly advanced AI robot, has caused quite a stir among tech enthusiasts. 

People were taken aback by its unsettling answer when asked if it could create more of itself. This raises significant concerns about the future impact of AI technology.

The most advanced AI robot, whose name Ameca, was created by the British company Engineered Arts

In a recent incident that has left many unsettled, the world's most advanced AI robot, named Ameca, has given a chilling response when questioned about its ability to create more of itself. 

The humanoid robot, created by British company Engineered Arts, made its debut at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in 2022. 

Ameca has artificial intelligence that helps it listen, see, recognize, and interact with people. It has small devices like microphones and cameras that allow it to do these things.

Videos showcasing Ameca's capabilities quickly went viral, drawing attention from both technology enthusiasts and skeptics alike. 

Even Elon Musk, the owner of SpaceX, expressed his concerns on social media with a simple, yet telling, "Yikes." 

But it was only recently that Ameca started to gain a lot of attention. This happened when a person on TikTok named Colin Smith, who is known as @photoshopcafe, posted a video of an interview with the robot.

In the video, someone asks Ameca a deep question about when artificial intelligence will be able to create its own designs. 

At first, Ameca gives a comforting answer, comparing it to a toaster that can make its own bread.

The robot recognizes that while AI can improve how it works, making designs from scratch needs human qualities like creativity, innovation, and understanding.

Ameca finishes by saying that it probably won't happen soon. But things become unsettling when Ameca gives a warning.

The robot says that if AI can design itself, it could soon become independent of humans. 

"And frankly, be careful what you wish for," Amera said.

"An AI that can design itself is one step away from an AI that doesn't need humans at all. Now there's a thought to keep you up at night," she warned.

This statement makes people think deeply and raises worries about the possible outcomes of advanced AI technology.

Social media users have been quick to react to Ameca's answer.

I Robot, Terminator, Matrix. I think we’ve already seen how this goes, it just lets us have the idea we’re in control, one user said.

I dont get people's fear when it comes to AI robotics.. Just one good EMP and we win. Or am i seeing this wrong, the second user commented

That’s it, time to pull the plug, the third user joked.

Ai robot needs to get over itself. It ain't nothing special, cause it couldn't get the parts any easier than a human could. The supply chain problems don't spare anyone, or anything lol, another wrote.

If it's truly advanced A.I it's not going tell you the truth is it !!! Someone wrote.
