A video showing a human-like robot, Ameca, with the right facial expressions has stirred reactions on social media.
The machine woke with a yawn like a person. After it woke up, the robot examined its two hands as if surprised it now has a new body.
The founder of Engineered Art, Will, said that the reason they made the robot look like a human is to interact with people, CNN reports.

Towards the tail end of the video, Ameca threw out its hands in a way that demonstrates welcoming an imaginary friend or family, The Economic Times reports.
In the video Ameca is alsp shown to be waking up and looking around, much like humans waking up from a slumber.
Can it walk?
As it stands, Engineered Arts says the bot is unable to walk, although it wants to give it that ability at some point.
As for the machine rising up, the British manufacturer is unlikely to be involved as they only design the husk and not the software for AI.
