China’s artificial intelligence (AI) researchers have created the world’s first “robot wife,” touting it as a solution to the severe gender imbalance within China’s population.
According to a report by Chinese media Sohu published on Nov. 5 last year, a group of top-notch Chinese engineers recently created the world’s first “AI wife.” The news headline read, “a robot wife has been created, so you don’t need to marry a real wife in the future.” However, the report did not mention what institution or tech company may have created this invention.
