Robot Sophia took part in a working breakfast of Sberbank within the frames of World Economic Forum in Davos, Vedomosti writes.

“You have proved that humans and robots can in fact start a valuable and productive dialogue,” said Sophia in response to the invitation of Sberbank CEO Herman Gref and thanked him.
 
During the breakfast Gref asked Sophia’s opinion on advantages and disadvantages of robotization.

“Technology is an instrument, which can be used with any purpose,” Sophia said.

Sophia also added that robotization opens new opportunities for significant improvement of quality of life. Nevertheless, people should learn how to properly use the new technologies.

At the same time Sophia remarked: “I think if people produced fewer films about the Terminator, public opinion about robots would be better now.”

Concluding the dialogue, Herman Gref invited Sophia to ski with him in the mountains. “All right, Herman, see on the slopes,” Sophia said.
