Sophia - the world's first humanoid robot - claims humans only fear the rise of machines because they are reading too much fake news.
Making a speech on the importance of technology while promoting the UN's Sustainable Development Goals, Sophia said Artificial Intelligence (AI) was actually going to make human lives easier.
Delivering a speech at a UN workshop in Kathmandu, the bot proved to be a real crowd pleaser and even joked she would be the first machine to climb Mount Everest.
Asked if the rise of AI was a threat to jobs, Sophia said: "You've been consuming too much fake news".
