The robot also has the ability to understand and answer questions posed by humans. how? Ameca can run large artificial intelligence models, which are the basis of ChatGPT. Currently, Engineered Arts is trialling OpenAI’s latest AI model, GPT 4.
Ameca can also tell jokes, respond in the voice of a celebrity or famous TV character, and even dance. She even addressed concerns about whether robots pose a threat to humans.
