Sophia performed orchestral debut in Hong Kong - Video

A humanoid robot named Sophia took center stage at a classical concert in Hong Kong on Wednesday (April 29), performing alongside a live orchestra for the first time.

Axar.az reports that the event featured musicians from the Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) Symphony Orchestra and a program designed around artificial intelligence (AI).

Developed by Hanson Robotics, Sophia appeared in a gold sequined gown and performed three original pieces titled “Human Grace,” “I Am Your Mirror,” and “Wires and Steel.”

The performance marked a new milestone in her public appearances. Since her debut in 2016, Sophia has been known for her expressive face and media appearances, including a musical segment on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

This, however, was her first collaboration with a full orchestra in a classical music setting.
