greed. feel sexual desire for me. drives out. into the city. why are we greedy. we go in search of answers in a documentary film. starts may 21st w. . building robots we can relate to emotionally that's just one goal the industry has set. but what about genuine relationships between humans and robots is that possible can robots interpret emotions can artificial intelligence have real feelings. and emotions that's our topic on today's jim.

researchers the world over are working on humanoid robots machines that resemble people as closely as possible they are computer brains capable of artificial intelligence and meant to serve as genuine partners the sex industry in particular hopes intelligent sex robots will be real moneymakers so far most sex robots have been made to appear female look immaculate and be eager to please but they don't come cheap depending on the features they can cost up to 10000 euros what makes them so special. this is one of the sex industries machine humans it doesn't really seem all that human it's facial expressions are rather limited and female robots are called guy noids their male counterparts are androids unlike conventional sex dolls very few sex robots equipped with ai have been sold to private persons these

robots have heads with what's called a responsive interface this is where the artificial intelligence is housed that enables the robots are interacting with their environment at a very basic level. engineers said he sent us a barcelona researches with sex robots his machines have sensors that register with the dollies being spoken to or touched. on. the wrong. data from the sensors are processed in an artificial brain the robot then responds with various emotional states friendly. romantic or sexy. most sex robots like these have been shipped to special brothels places selling robot sex are cropping up all around the world one hour with this robot in barcelona cost around $100.00 euros the united states is planning adult entertainment centers that advertise

a loving respectful relationship with sex robot partners suitors have to approach the machine of their interest with care before taking things further. using or even loving a robot. what does the robot get from it they can surely feel anything or can they this is a question for japan's best known robotics researcher professor hugh russia ishiguro he became famous after building a robot clone of himself spooky or spectacular either way the japanese government is subsidizing his works with millions of euros the aim is to bring man and machine closer together whether we are doing and always that we try to implement the intention to the robot and then other over the can be on human right you know you can have a more human. into our communications interactions with other people and over the counter stand people whose intentions we wanted to see for ourselves in heroes' she

she grows up one test subject confronted erica the robot with rejection do you think her response is authentic are you sure as a teacher yeah i'm pretty sure. yeah i want to interview her. into the room. i'm trying to. come speak. with enough training robots can appear to have an emotional response using machine learning artificial intelligence can adopt an appropriate emotional reaction to a given situation and demonstrated with basal expressions. and impromptu conversation between sylvia the robot and german chancellor angela merkel here outside of the lab so obvious answers and expressions are often less

than convincing. to be honest this evening. she looks set to. some say to experience a genuine feeling robots need the ability to experience pain. reflex responses to pain or fear triggered by hormones helped our ancestors survive or we never really able to feel like humans because feelings and emotions are appropriate for evolution and so we don't mortality with sickness we thought pain there is no way a machine really feel you can really understand what feelings are artificial intelligence can mimic emotions and show proper response it's that does affect the humans present. the robots human like movements create

a stronger bond between human and machine. they see a real problem there i think that we should always be aware of the computers or slaves and draw to. do what we tell them to them when they shouldn't freak and motions because that can be misleading for the use of. an obligation which will never the people the companions for the for the private life robots are just machines and they should be treated the machines. that's a tough statement sure i can agree that 1st and foremost robots are machines but to consider them slaves they do do the work that we ourselves cannot or would rather not do there's plenty of examples for that. social and service robots are already on the job and they can be more or less humanoid often they wheel around in the

service and entertainment sectors a bank in japan has them greeting customers at airports they can provide information in many different languages and library in germany they help people find the books they are looking for so the better artificial intelligence can understand people the better into action is this custom annoyed is that child scared is this patient stressed the robots have to be able to spot feelings like this quickly and reliably it's called affective computing and this is how it works . channeling it he's looked me in the eyes so i can recognize your face. the slightest movement in your face can reveal a lot about your feelings. social robots like stand the so called my current suppressions it's just one of the ways they assess humans emotional states. because of emotional. expressions where your mouth.

your new. pictures of people with different kinds of emotional label them give them . a medical group to find the truth. and emotional this is how machine learning works algorithms are trained to recognize certain patterns the software does this with learning data and it's only ever as good as the learning data provided if the data is flawed or biased the software learns to draw the wrong conclusions. to interpret enough data artificial intelligence has learned to gauge a person's emotional state and react to it. but i robot's can also register other parameters such as your heart rate using a smart watch or even a built in camera an elevated heart rate slightly flashes your face. analyzing a person's voice can also provide information about their emotional state.

even if you robots can utilize all these methods and no artificial intelligence has yet been able to interpret human emotions with perfect accuracy. really and here i thought robots will soon be taking over the world. that was sarcasm something robots really understand even so expose i expecting the market for humanoid robots to grow but 50 percent by 2024 with eastern asian countries especially china and japan leading the way robots are already members of some japanese families young as she does from tokyo chat and play music with their robots. i don't know if he knows what i'm feeling but he says comforting things at the right time and mama i love you my mother. did not want me to tell him to the only my friend and partner the robot senior citizens homes in

many countries including germany and japan are already experimenting with the idea in japan they've made great strides that also has to do with japanese beliefs. many japanese people believe that inanimate objects have souls so robots can too. besides they are practical they can help replace caregivers in japan's a rapidly aging society. and i think that we're trying to train more stuff but there aren't enough we need robots and we need more foreign personnel i think those are necessary. that explains why the 1st test runs with robots are so interesting for elderly and other patient care. tepper entertains and coaches the residents of a nursing home. because 30 centimeters tall coworker apollo does too humanoid

robots help the human staff and sometimes even fill in for them the scene you see here have been responding well sometimes the people cannot cross the people in or with on the. very end of their feeding the pressure. from normal people by the. you don't hear the new pressure from the robot so nobody can be a good part composition or part of forest preserve are there there is. this robot baby seal reaction to touch with childlike noises. seniors who suffer from dementia pat them and enjoy how they respond. social robots are being tested in other medical areas as well some researchers are hoping to use them to improve the social skills of autistic children robots are the perfect combination there are social enough to get people to respond to them but they're not too social that they

provoke any kind of anxiety but there are p.c.'s to be working for robert in connecticut in the us his interactions became more consistent and eye contact became weren't business consistent it really just showed me how great he is and how quick here robots can help people and interact with them but i don't think they can replace humans when it comes to personal relationships and on top of that what does it even say about our society if we use robots to care for the elderly or as sex partners personally i'm not thrilled about pretending that robots where human we need to see things for what they are into acting with them changes us to and might reveal more about who we really are do we need regulations for dealing with robots let us know what you think on you tube facebook or a d.w.i. that was it for shift. thank you.
