Meet Jia Jia the 'robot goddess': Chinese inventor claims AI humanoid is the most realistic ever made (and has programmed it to refer to him as 'my lord')

Jia Jia can speak, shows micro-expressions, move its lips and body.[CN]

佳佳会说话，有微表情，口型及躯体运动。

It's programmed to recognize human/machine interaction, has autonomous position and navigation and offers services based on cloud technology.[CN]

它设定有人机交互功能，自主定位和导航系统，可以提供云端技术服务。

Researher say they would not consider mass production, yet.[CN]

然而研究人员表示，他们不会考虑批量生产（机器人）。

Dubbed a 'robot goddess', Jia Jia has the long flowing locks and rosy red cheeks as a human, but it's being taught deep learning abilities. This life-like cyborg is the brain child of Chen Xiaoping and his colleagues at the University of Science and Technology of China.[CN]

被冠予“机器人女神”称号的佳佳有着一头柔顺的飘飘长发，如玫瑰般绯红的脸颊，与人无异。而且它拥有超强的学习能力。机器人原型是中科大的张小平教授和他同事们的智力结晶。

Compared to previous interactive robots, this humanoid has natural eye movement and its speech is in sync with its lip movement. Xiaoping explains that between researcher and development it took the team three years to complete the robot, which can speak, show micro-expressions, move its lips and body.[CN]

与先前机器人的交互方式不同的是，这次的机器人有眼部运动，演讲时话语与口型一致。张小平解释说，研究团队秉承追求发展，费时3年做成了机器人。机器人会说话，有微表情，口型及躯体运动。

Hello everyone, I'm Jia Jia. Welcome!' the robot said as it greeted the audience at the university's multi-media center today, reports Xinhuanet. 'Don't come too close to me when you are taking a picture. It will make my face look fat,' Jia Jia said.[CN]

“大家好，我是佳佳。欢迎！”今日机器人在大学的多媒体中心向公众问好，新华社报道。“照相时请不要离我太近，会显得我的脸特别胖。”佳佳如是说。

'We hope to develop the robot so it has deep learning abilities. We will add facial expression recognition and make it interact more deeply with people,' Xiaoping explained. He also revealed that Jia Jia was 'priceless' and the team would not consider mass production, yet

There is no word yet about what Jia Jia's main purpose will be, but the public shouldn't get their hopes up about owning one. The researchers have clearly stated that Jia Jia will not be massed produced

You might  do a double take when you see this new interactive robot, as it 'looks very much like a real woman'.

Dubbed  'robot goddess', Jia Jia has the long flowing locks and rosy red cheeks as a human, but is being taught deep learning abilities.

This humanoid is designed with natural eye movement, speech that is syncs with its lip movements and refers to its male creators as 'lords'.

This life-like cyborg is the brain child of Chen Xiaoping and his colleagues at the University of Science and Technology of China, who unveiled the technology today in Hefei, capital of east China's Anhui Province.

During the unveiling, Xiaoping said hello to his robot goddess, which immediately responded, 'Yes my lord, what can I do for you?'

It took the team three years to complete the robot, which can speak, show micro-expressions, move its lips and body, yet seems to hold its head in a submissive manner.

'It will make my face look fat,' Jia Jia said.

This group of researchers were also the masterminds behind the service robot 'Kejia' that took home first place at the RoboCup championship in 2014.

Kejia reached a historical mark 8,555 points by showing off its skills of neatly lining up drinks.

But Xiaoping's robot goddess doesn't seem like it will be used in any competitions.

'We hope to develop the robot so it has deep learning abilities. We will add facial expression recognition and make it interact more deeply with people,' Xiaoping explained.

He also revealed that Jia Jia was 'priceless' and the team would not consider mass production, yet. 

China's robot goddess isn't the first robot to look like a real woman.

Earlier this year a life-like replica of actress Scarlett Johansson made its debut – which winks and giggles when its creator tells her she looks cute.

It took Ricky Ma a year-and-a-half and $50,000 to complete a female robot prototype he calls the Mark 1.

He admits it is modelled after a Hollywood star, but says he does not want to name her. She responds to a set of programmed verbal commands spoken into a microphone.

The humanoid has simple arm and leg movements, turns its head and can bow.

It also has dark blonde hair and liquid eyes, and wears a grey skirt and cropped top, can create detailed facial expressions. 

In response to the compliment, 'Mark 1, you are so beautiful', its brows and the muscles around its eyes relax, and the corners of its lips lift, creating a natural-seeming smile, and it says, 'Hehe, thank you.'
