This week on Coldfusion we take a look at a new robot that's capable of hyper realistic facial expressions

AUK based robotics company showcased a new humanoid robot that's capable of hyper realistic facial expressions.

Amica looks so realistic that many viewers thought that they were watching CGI , but it is indeed real.

The robot Amica is a clever demonstration of what's possible in robotic realism today .

The company is making the robot available for purchase and it can also be rented for events.

GPT 3 talks, the way it answers questions and seems to mimic a personality.

Do you think that a cat could pilot a rocket? Yes, if it evolved enough. If it was allowed, would it be able to work the controls? If not, why not? The per of the engine would be very distracting. If you were to interview it more thoroughly and ask it about the topic that you're discussing, it could probably give you a scientific breakdown of that topic in quite vivid detail.

If this is what this technology is like now, in five years it's going to be orders of magnitude better.

The Amica robot is impressive at conveying emotions via facial expressions, but it's unable to walk it.

I think it's only a matter of time before a company out there manages to crack all three in the same humanoid robot.
