Ai-Da, described as ‘world’s first ultra-realistic robot artist’, struggles at times to answer peers’ questions
In a groundbreaking hearing, a robot “gave evidence” to a House of Lords committee on Tuesday – where it read typos from its pre-written script, struggled to hear questions, and needed to be rebooted halfway through the session.
“Ai-Da”, described by its creator, Aiden Meller, as “the world’s first ultra-realistic robot artist”, appeared in front of the Lords communications and digital committee as part of its enquiry into the future of the creative industries in the UK.
