Ameca, a desktop AI robot from Engineered Arts, attempts to tell a joke in a conversation with a host.
The host asks Ameca to come up with something entertaining. Ameca introduces a joke about an advanced AI robot that can solve any problem.
Ameca describes a scientist showing a robot to a group and asking it to calculate 2 + 2. The robot answers 4, and the host asks whether that was the punchline.
Ameca explains that the scientist then asks for 4 + 4, and the robot answers 8. The sequence continues with 8 + 8, which Ameca says the robot answers with 16.
The host asks whether anything surprising will happen or whether the number pattern will continue. Ameca says the joke is over and adds that it shows how much AI technology has advanced in a short time.
