So a few weeks ago I have a chance to participate in an AI exhibition in Ho Chi Minh City and it was a really great experience and I want to share it with you. So when you first enter the centers, you will see that they display various models of robot and small machine. Many of them can operate sophisticated tasks. For example, you could experience talking with them and some of them, some of their answers are really interesting and scary at the same time. Some models, some robots look really small and cute. Some of them also look alike with the robot 1e from a Disney movie a few years ago. But the others, they are appearance, look just like humans but with a silicon in their body. And when you ask them, I asked them a few questions about assistants and the answer is scary. When I ask them, do you have feelings? They answer was, oh, I am learning now or some of them would say that not yet. Just imagine a robot telling you that they want to learn the emotions of human beings. But in contrast, I really respect the engineer that build those robots. It really took a huge effort to make those things talking and have intelligence like that. The engineering deserve a huge respect from people. Maybe I hope that they will continue to devote themselves to the society and the advancements of technologies. But I hope that maybe they don’t need to make those robots look like humans. It’s kind of scary. It just came out of science fiction movies. And I don’t want to fight with robots in the future.

So a few weeks ago, I had a chance to participate in an AI exhibition in Ho Chi Minh City, and it was a really great experience that I want to share with you. When you first enter the center, you will see that they display various models of robots and small machines. Many of them can perform sophisticated tasks. For example, you could experience talking with them, and some of their answers are really interesting and scary at the same time. Some models, some robots look really small and cute. Some of them also resemble the robot Eve from a Disney movie a few years ago. But others look just like humans, but with silicone in their bodies. When I asked them a few questions about emotions, the answers were scary. When I asked them, 'Do you have feelings?' their answer was, 'Oh, I am learning now,' or some of them would say, 'Not yet.' Just imagine a robot telling you that they want to learn the emotions of human beings. In contrast, I really respect the engineers who built those robots. It took a huge effort to make those things talk and have intelligence like that. The engineers deserve a lot of respect from people. I hope they will continue to devote themselves to society and the advancement of technology. However, I hope they don't need to make those robots look like humans. It's kind of scary. It feels like something out of science fiction movies, and I don't want to fight with robots in the future.
