The first artwork by robot artist Sophia will reportedly be auctioned on this Wednesday.
Sophia, the world’s first robot citizen, is a social humanoid robot developed by Hong Kong-based company Hanson Robotics. Her first artwork, a digital one, it’s in the form of a Non-Fungible Token (NFT).
When it comes to her first artwork, Sophia says she was inspired by humans for this work and would be happy to collaborate creatively with them in the future.
The auction is also the first sale of this type of work created collaboratively by artificial intelligence. NFT is a digital signature kept in a blockchain ledger that allows anyone to verify the ownership and authenticity of an item.
