      Sophia the robot is dumb, but also not very different from past headlines about chatbots "passing" the Turing test. Theory of mind is fundamental to how we think, so it's very easy to fool us into lending human emotions & understanding to things that superficially mimic those.

      It seems most people don't see AI as a tool or a technology, nor even a disruptive force for society or the economy. They perceive AI as a mere story, a real-world reflection of what is shown in sci-fi movies. These people are the target audience for Sophia.

      The trouble here is that Sophia has raised $36 million dollars, scamming so many people. This will hurt so many people, and the AI field will be to blame.

      Arguably it's like Bitcoin: people don't buy it because they believe in the underlying value (they don't even begin to understand what it is), they buy it because they expect it to rise in value. As they say, a fool and their money are soon parted.

          Hanson Robotics' scam is far worse than bitcoin. With BTC, collective belief is enough to maintain the value. With Sophia's ICO, once Hanson goes out of business, it's over. Unlike bitcoin, where "store of value" belief can prop it up. Pretty much guaranteed scam.

          Was "Hanson" inspired by "Clever Hans"?
