At the AI for Good 2023 global summit, a panel of robots and their creators sat in front of the press to answer journalists\u2019 questions on topics such as job automation, artificial intelligence (AI) leadership and collaboration with humans for a better future.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The summit was hosted by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the tech agency of the United Nations, in Geneva from July 4-7 and included a variety of speakers along with the world\u2019s most advanced androids. The UN called this its first robot press conference.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Altogether nine robots were in attendance including Sophia, who serves as the U.N. Development Program\u2019s (UNDP) first robot innovation ambassador, a robot healthcare service provider named Grace and a rock star robot called Desdemona.<\/p>\n
