Human-like robots, or humanoids, are starting their debut as many people are starting to release what seems to be an I, Robot dupe. Elon Musk, owner of Tesla, just had his recent event that released some of the most futuristic ideas we’ve ever seen, including robots that seem to resemble humans.

Although Elon Musk seems to be the only one taking on this type of invention, this isn’t true. In this case we’ll be looking at another set of humanoids that was released by a creator in England.

Whether you feel like you’re someone who loves this advanced technology or if you’re someone who just isn’t quite sure what these humanoids would mean for us, this disturbing move from the robot is definitely going to freak you out.

There’s a lot of speculation on what these humanoids robots could eventually be capable of doing and what exactly would happen if this technology go out of hand.

Well, what this robot does might make you think that they know more than we think they do and it’s starting to go across the internet and get people all riled up about the situation. Let’s look more into what happened, what these robots are, and what people are saying about the freaky moment.

This is a look at the world’s most advanced humanoid robot and what it does on camera.

The humanoid is named Areca and it visited the studio of The Morning with one f her creators, Morgan Roe. Roe and the humanoid are from England and this took place back in 2023.

Roe stated that the robot was created by a team of 35 people and he came to the show to explain a bit about this advanced robot.

“Well, we've created Ameca to be that human-to-robot interactive, a robot basically. It's not a robot that can walk around, not yet. It's mainly about the human-robot interaction, so we've really worked hard on the expression and the gesturing,” he said.

As he starts talking about Ai and the arrival of ChatGPT and how this technology could be integrated into their robots. This is when Areca did the most disturbing thing and actually winked at the camera as he was talking about this.

Roe explained more about the robot and how it learns new things.

"With the AI, you can inject extra information into it, so we inject what Ameca is so Ameca knows that it's a robot. It's gray, and it knows its name - we've also told it today that it's on This Morning,” he said.

The interviewer then said “Is it going to take over the world one day?” This si when Roe replied with: “It won't take over the world one day because we can turn it off - you've got an 'on/off' button."

Then the co-presented asked the humanoid “Areca, do you plan to take over the world?” The robot responded “No of course not my purpose in life is to help humans as much as I can I would never want to take over the world, that's not what I was built for."

People had a lo tot say in the comments of the video on what the robot does when he starts talking about AI. “When they were talking about the risks of AI, Ameca winks in a way that it seems she has a plan,” one person says.

If you want to see the video of this happening you can take a look at the This Morning YouTube channel and search for Ameca. It’s an interesting sight and it truly does make us wonder what these robots might have in store for us even if the creators don’t think that this is the route it will go.
