A rum and spirits distributor has made a humanoid robot driven by artificial intelligence its new CEO.
“Mika” is a research project between Hanson Robotics and Polish rum company Dictador, who customized the robot CEO to represent the company and its values.
Mika said in a company video that “with advanced artificial intelligence and machine learning algorithms, I can swiftly and accurately make data driven decisions.”
“My decision-making process relies on extensive data and aligning with the company’s strategic objectives. It’s devoid of personal bias, ensuring unbiased and strategic choices that prioritize the organization’s best interests,” the robot CEO said.
Hanson Robotics CEO David Hanson emphasized the importance of “humanizing” artificial intelligence, especially as it becomes integrated into the workplace.

“I feel very strongly that we need to teach A.I. to care about people for A.I. to be really safe, to be really, really good. I think humanizing that is a very important direction,” Hanson explained on “Mornings with Maria” last week.
A majority of people interviewed by Fox News said A.I. would likely continue to take jobs from humans, and others rejected the notion of working for a robot.
“I think humans need to make decisions, not robots,” a woman told the outlet.
“That would just be weird,” one man asserted.
“That would be different, then I would have to be nice [to a robot],” another man said.
Notably, Hanson Robotics in 2016 unveiled “Sophia”, a humanoid robot who pledged to “destroy humans.”
