Abstract
China’s top Artificial Intelligence (AI) scientist Chen Yiaoping forgot one decisive thing in his stunning statement in January 2019 for the nation’s South China morning Post, when he asked for ethical guidelines in the field of artificial intelligence, saying the technology had advanced to the point where it was time to discuss the risks. Chen, professor and director of the Robotics Laboratory at the University of Science and Technology of China, is the inventor of Jia Jia, the female-looking humanoid robot branded “the Chinese Robot Goddess”, and of KeJia, an intelligent home service robot destined to serve humans in public places, for example, as a shopping assistant.
