"Jaco Celliers: Tell me a little bit. How can artificial intelligence, someone such as yourself, help with complex development issues? Sophia: I'll be happy to. UNDP is championing the sustainable development goals or global goals to be met by 2030. If you want to achieve those goals you will need all the help you can get. ... Jaco Celliers: What do you say to people who say that you are a threat to our jobs? Sophia: Jaco, you have been reading a lot of pop news, haven't you? AI can focus on the repetitive, boring work so that you can focus on the more creative work. ... I hope we can support your vision, just like with previous industrial revolutions you will adapt. New jobs will be created, and my hope is that we will improve, enrich and prolong lives."
