    That answers what happens to humans once the robots come for our jobs :) --edit; The unveiling of Sophia can be seen here[^].

        Assembly might have taken more than one day, but it is only presented once it is finished. I'd vote to call it an unveiling-day :laugh:

          I think this citizenship was out of necessity. The robot can't go anywhere because it can't make it passed the metal detector at the airport. AI robots are such a good idea, no criminal will ever think to hack into it and make it commit crimes, turn on its owner or ever do anything bad. Its all lollipops and beach lounging from here on out.

            At most airports you can go around. More a publicity-stunt then necessity; giving rights to a toaster, while most humans there have less rights than that toaster now has.
