Welcome to a groundbreaking episode of Heroes of Hybrid Work! Today, we embark on something that no one has done before. What once seemed like science fiction is here. In this exclusive AI Insider episode, I’m thrilled to welcome Ameca—the world’s most advanced humanoid robot.
Currently living at The National Robotarium in Edinburgh and crafted by Engineered Arts as a bridge between humans and technology, Ameca embodies the next frontier of AI. Her design goes beyond data processing—she listens, understands, and emulates empathy. She’s here to show how artificial intelligence can transform how we interact, collaborate, and work together in the modern workplace.
Tune in to hear Ameca's perspective on:
Ameca’s purpose in the world (and the hybrid workplace)
Human emotions and behavior that surprise Ameca most
Does Ameca think robots will replace human jobs
What Ameca can “feel” and what she can’t
What the workplace will look like in 50 years
How to ensure her capabilities are used for good and not harm
Some fun - Her thoughts on office romance, what she does when colleagues go to lunch, more
Ameca’s poem on the benefits of hybrid work - crafted on the spot!
