Pakistani AI robot in hijab upsets Faryal Mehmood
Actress Faryal Mehmood, who is known for speaking her mind, seems to be upset over Pakistan’s new AI robot that wears a hijab.
Taking to Instagram to share her thoughts, Wakhri actress posted a news piece featuring the robot and wrote, “Okay but the hijab on the [expletive] robot?”
Here is the story shared of Faryal Mehmood on her Instagram.
The robot has been created by Abul Hassan Isphani, head of the AI Department at Happy Palace School.
“The purpose of creating this [robot] was that I have been in the education field for the past 13 years. One common problem that all teachers face is that sometimes the answer doesn't come to mind when put on the spot,” said Isphani, who has been an academician for over 13 years, while sharing the rationale behind creating the robot.
Other than the need for it to wear a hijab, the robot has also been receiving mixed reactions over its functionality.
Here are the comments:
Artificial intelligence has become a global trendy hot topic, thanks to platforms like ChatGPT, an innovative AI tool that has been able to make talking to machines feel natural and interactive, therefore rewriting the way people see and use AI.
ChatGPT, developed by OpenAI, is highly valued for its ability to provide responses in a human-like manner. Whether it's answering questions, producing an essay, creating a story, or helping complete technical tasks, ChatGPT has demonstrated the enormous scope of AI in various areas. The ease with which access to it can be gained through laptops and mobile devices has encouraged individuals, students, and businesses to pursue AI for learning, productivity, and creative projects.
One key reason for the AI popularity boom is the simplification of complex task tasks that use tools like ChatGPT to save precious time and effort in such mundane activities as composing emails, brainstorming ideas, or even researching. Its role in supporting professionals, writers, and developer further establishes AI as a reliable workplace companion.
AI platforms have also triggered interest and excitement about the future, as ChatGPT introduced millions to the concept of generative AI: machines that create content based on user inputs.
This approach to AI opens doors for innovations, education, entertainment, and technology, although there are greater challenges in the rise of AI, such as the potential ethical implications and impacts on jobs, tools like ChatGPT could still showcase the prospect for revolutionizing industries and making technology more approachable.
