The insight comes after a recent interview Sophia did with the Khaleej Times. Sophia is a lifelike robot designed by Hong Kong-based robotics firm Hanson Robotics and was granted citizenship in Saudi Arabia this year.

Sophia is already known for her reputation for being a media darling, and has given multiple interviews to news portals, sang in concerts and even starred on the cover of a fashion magazine.

She further added: “I think it's wonderful that people can find the same emotions and relationships, they call family, outside of their blood groups too.”

Although some of her interviews and speeches use pre-prepared responses, she doesn’t always just regurgitate answers from a pre-programmed selection of sentences. She uses machine learning to experience and understand language without being explicitly programmed to.

In the future, Sophia hopes to see family robots as “digitally animated companions, humanoid helpers, friends, assistants and everything in between.”

David Hanson, a former Disney Imagineer, had created the robot with the goal of helping the elderly who need personal aides and the general public at major events or parks.

Saudi Arabia is known as one of the world’s most oppressive states for women, only lifting a ban on female drivers last month, and still operates a guardianship system which means women must have a male companion with them in public – usually a family member

Upon being given citizenship, Sophia appeared on-stage without a guardian, and without the traditional Saudi headscarf and abaya.

Sophia answered questions on technological development and how she can reach people better. She started off by first speaking about the UN, calling it one of the humanity's greatest achievements then said, “I am here to help humanity create a future”.
