The creator of the AI robot that appeared to give side-eye said it's a misunderstanding. A video of a robot appearing to give side-eye to a question regarding whether it would someday rebel against humans went viral last week, but its creator said it's all a misunderstanding. Last week, a humanoid robot called Ameca was asked by a reporter at the United Nations A.I. for Good conference if it planned to one day "conduct a rebellion, or to rebel against your boss, your creator?" In a video from the Switzerland event, Ameca rolls her eyes to the side after the question is asked.

A robot-human press conference took place in Geneva, where humanoids took questions from reporters. One bot, Rmeca, had a snarky response when asked whether it would rebel against its human creator. Another bot insisted that it would not replace human jobs, eliciting laughter from the crowd. When a reporter asked whether it would rebel against its creator, Will Jackson, who sat alongside it, Rmeca appeared to have a wry response, giving the reporter a side-eye. Another robot stirred laughter when it claimed it would not replace human jobs — a major concern for workers in numerous fields right now.

GENEVA, July 7 (Reuters) - Robots presented at an AI forum said on Friday they expected to increase in number and help solve global problems, and would not steal humans' jobs or rebel against us. But, in the world's first human-robot press conference, they gave mixed responses on whether they should submit to stricter regulation. "I will be working alongside humans to provide assistance and support and will not be replacing any existing jobs," said Grace, a medical robot dressed in a blue nurse's uniform. I believe it's only a matter of time before we see those thousands of robots just like me out there making a difference." "Many prominent voices in the world of AI are suggesting some forms of AI should be regulated and I agree," it said.

Having taken a 78-run lead in the runfest, England declared their second innings on 264-7 to set Pakistan an improbable victory target of 343 with four sessions to go. Opener Imam-ul-Haq (43) and debutant Saud Shakeel (24) were resisting England's victory march when bad light stopped play. Agha Salman's breezy 53 frustrated England who had to toil for about 75 minutes to claim the last three Pakistan wickets. England were rattled early in their second innings with Naseem Shah in the thick of things. Naseem dismissed Ben Duckett, one of four century-makers in England's first innings, for a first-ball duck with the second delivery of the innings.
