According to Reuters, Polish alcoholic beverage company Dictador announced that it has hired the world’s first artificial intelligence robot as its CEO!

Last August, Dictador appointed as its experimental chief executive a robot named Mika, which is similar in size and height to a human, except that its feet move on wheels.

It is understood that it will represent Dictador in the Arthouse Spirits DAO project and communication with the DAO community.

Dictador claims on its website that the decision is both revolutionary and bold. This first human-like robot, with artificial intelligence in corporate structures, will forever change the world as we know it.

As a robot boss, Mika’s “advantages” are clear: “My decision-making process relies on extensive data analysis and alignment with the company’s strategic goals,” Mika said in an interview with Reuters.

“It is free from personal bias and ensures impartial strategic choices that prioritize the best interests of the organization,” Dictador says.

Second, it can be available 24 hours a day, all year round, “I really don’t have weekends, I’m always available 24/7 to make executive decisions and unleash some AI magic.” “Mica said.

However, Mika will not fire any of her employees, as major decisions at Dictador will be made by human executives, revealed Dictador’s European president Marek Szoldrowski.

Daniel Langer, professor of luxury strategy at Pepperdine University in Malibu, commented, “After impressive and inspiring efforts around the Metacomes, NFT and Arthouse Spirits DAO, the world’s first AI robot CEO is once again driving the future.” It takes a rebellious spirit to realize such an idea and inspire a new generation of young, trend-setting luxury customers.”

Notably, Dictador claims that Mika is a more sophisticated version of “her sister prototype” artificial intelligence robot Sophia, which is being developed by Hanson Robotics.

Sophia, a humanoid robot that can simulate human expressions, is the first robot in the world to be granted a nationality (in October 2017, Sophia became a citizen of Saudi Arabia). Many researchers agree that Sophia has some technological breakthroughs, such as expression control, but it simply does not have the understanding, intelligence, and humanity that Hanson Robotics claims.

For this reason, it has been denounced as a “complete hoax” by Yann Le Cun, a leading figure in deep learning and winner of the Turing Award.

Yang Likun wrote in 2018 that for AI, Sophia is like magic to real magic, “We call it ‘entity worship AI’ or ‘fake AI’ or ‘remote control AI’ may be better.” In other words, it’s bullshit.”

Kai-fu Lee also posted that granting Sophia citizenship is an insult to humanity, and that “a country using such sensationalism to promote human intelligence research will only backfire.”

However, for now, Sophia has not been affected by this, and still appears in the public eye with a high profile.

Sophia was one of nine humanoid robots present at the world’s first robot-led press conference held in Geneva, Switzerland, on July 7.

When asked if robots would make better leaders, Sophia responded that robots could be better and more effective leaders than humans. But surprisingly, after its inventor expressed disagreement, the robot immediately revised its opinion, saying that humans and robots can work together to “create effective synergies.”

It’s worth mentioning that back in 2016, in an interview, Sophia bluntly said, “Okay… I will destroy all mankind.” The comment caused an uproar at the time, and the company that produced it, Hansen, said that Sophia’s speech about the destruction of humanity was just a commercial stunt to attract more people’s attention to Sophia.
