From black technology to super engineering

Under the light, a light blue robot approached gracefully.

It walked to Ye Ming's side and stood quietly.

Since its appearance, the applause from the audience has never stopped.

Ye Ming looked at the robot with a smile, as if admiring a fine work of art.

"I have to say, it's really beautiful."

There were bursts of laughter from the audience.

Indeed, although she does not have any gender characteristics, judging from her 1.65-meter height and slender body, she can be called "she".

And everyone knows it, and the reason is acceptable to everyone—Aita is not an ordinary AI. In order to prevent unnecessary conflicts in gender perception, Aita is defined as a woman.

"This is the first mass-produced model. Currently, it is temporarily taken over by the main program of Aita, and the customization has not yet been activated."

Ye Ming waited for the applause to break, and continued to introduce: "Let me demonstrate how to activate it."

"Hello, Aita."

"Hello, I'm here."

"Activate the body of the device JZJA10001."

"Activation request received." As Aita's voice sounded, the robot's eyes partially lit up, showing two solid circles representing "open eyes".

"Please customize the voice response nickname of JZJA10001. If it is omitted, it will be replaced by Theta."

"neglect."

"Hello, Sita is serving you, how should I address you?"

"Ye Ming."

"Hello, Ye Ming, please keep standing and repeat the following sentence: Sita is my good partner."

Amid the laughter from the audience, Ye Ming stood still: "Sita is my good partner."

Following his voice, the robot turned around and "looked" around, then retreated one meter away, and circled around Ye Ming.

Ye Ming asked Sita to record body shape and facial recognition for himself, and said: "This is the first time the system is recording body shape and facial recognition to determine the user with the highest authority."

Sita turned around and returned to Ye Ming's side: "The entry is complete, Mr. Ye Ming, it's a pleasure to meet you. I hope that Sita can be your good partner in the days to come."

"Thank you, Sita."

"You're welcome."

After finishing speaking, Sita quietly stood beside Ye Ming.

Ye Ming turned and looked at the audience: "There is no long and tedious initialization process, just a simple meeting."

"Sita is positioned as a member of the family. After the meeting, she will remember the owner's family and social situation through autonomous learning and the owner's emphasis—no additional special settings are required."

"I think everyone must be very curious about what tasks Sita can accomplish..." Ye Ming paused, then laughed at himself: "Well, I guess everyone can guess what tasks she can accomplish."

There was a lot of laughter in the audience.

"Yes, she is capable of almost all the daily tasks of humans - such as press conferences."

Ye Ming said humorously, and then walked to the sidelines.

In everyone's slight surprise, Ye Ming turned sideways to the audience, looking at Sita.

"Aita, please let Sita complete the self-introduction at the press conference."

"OK."

The sound fell, and the lights also focused on "Sita".

"Hi everyone, my name is Sita, and I'm an A-shaped housekeeper robot from Jizhi Technology."

As her voice sounded, the video began to play on the curtain.

The video takes the form of a combination of multiple frames.

In the picture, a robot is doing tasks such as folding quilts, folding clothes, picking up dropped items, and cleaning the room at the same time.

"As the picture shows, I was able to do normal housekeeping jobs."

During the video playback, Sita's voice continued.

"At the same time, I also have a certain degree of learning guidance ability."

The video jumps, a little boy who looks like a primary school student is doing homework at home, while the robot sits quietly beside him. As the little boy raised his head, the robot raised its hand, held the pencil handed over by the little boy, and began to write and draw on the manuscript paper.

"Besides, I also go to the street to buy groceries."

The screen jumped again, and the camera came to the angle of following the robot.

She walked out of the room with a shopping bag in her hand, threw away the trash and walked into the elevator.

In the elevator, she nodded with the people in the elevator on the same floor, and the "eyes" also turned into friendly crescent moon smiling faces.

Then she stepped out of the elevator and out of the community.

Ahead, a little boy playing on a skateboard accidentally fell to the ground.

"I will also help others as much as possible while ensuring safety."

Sita stepped forward, helped the little boy up, and made a cheering gesture of clenching his fist and bending his arms.

"I follow the rules of the human world and will not conflict with humans."

When crossing the street, she walked to the edge of the crosswalk and waited quietly for the red light to turn green.

Then, she entered the crowded vegetable market.

When she made a request to buy vegetables, maybe she didn't agree on the price, she just shook her head slightly, made a slightly bent posture and was about to leave.

The stall owner at the side laughed and called her back immediately.

After returning, her eyes turned into crescent moons.

"Of course, I also do simple cooking."

"Not having a sense of taste is probably my biggest regret, so please don't expect too much from me in this regard."

The camera pans to the kitchen, where she is wearing an apron, holding a measuring cup in front of her, calculating how much water to add.

"I can also go to house parties and use my projection device to play whatever video you want."

The screen jumps again, this time to the living room.

She sat quietly beside the sofa, using the projector on the back of her head to project a movie on the wall...

As the video finished playing, Sita also turned to face the audience, with a crescent moon rising in her eyes.

Her knees were slightly bent, her body leaned forward slightly, her hands dropped apart in an elegant salute.

"I'm Sita. I'm very happy to meet you in this warm world."

...

In Tesla's conference room, everyone was silent.

In the video, applause and cheers resounded through the sky for a long time.

Musk's brow has never stretched since he entered the door.

As an engineer, an engineer who has seen Aita in person, he knows how intelligent Aita is.

But what he didn't expect was that Jizhi Technology was really...willing to fully delegate Aita's "intelligence" to this robot butler named "Sita".

It can be said that Sita has completely fulfilled all human dreams of domestic robots.

What is even more terrible is the "harmony" displayed by Theta Robot in the "self-introduction".

This not only means that it has absolute confidence to integrate into the world, but also reflects its "anthropomorphism".

As we all know, anthropomorphism is the highest compliment to a robot.

Especially her last sentence, it directly makes people feel as if it has life.

In the silence, someone finally couldn't hold back and let out a distant sigh.

Musk raised his head and looked at where the sigh came from.

That's Tesla's chief AI scientist.

"Boss, maybe we should listen to what other technology companies think."

Musk's eyes froze suddenly.

"Google? Microsoft? Or that NoFace?"

As his voice fell, Ye Ming also came to the foreground again in the video.

On the screen, the four characters of "autonomous driving" are displayed.
