Meet the New Virtual Sophia: A Blend of Art and AI

Sophia, the humanoid robot from the innovation kitchen of Hansen Robotics, is getting a glow-up in the digital realm. By morphing into her anime counterpart, dubbed “Sophia beingAI,” she’s ready to roll into the Metaverse like a digital celebrity. Launched by Jeanne Lim, a former Hansen Robotics CEO, this new avatar operates under a co-branding partnership and is already making waves in the NFT (non-fungible token) community.

The Auction that Combines Intelligence and Art

Starting December 16, 100 unique intelligent NFTs featuring Sophia beingAI will be available on Binance’s NFT marketplace. Forget about ordinary collectibles—the iNFTs are smart. Each one brims with AI personality, allowing playful interactions in a gamified online world, promising you a chat no earthly being can match. The auction is poised to run for five days, with 20 iNFTs being revealed each day before this digital extravaganza concludes on December 21. So mark your calendars! It’s like Cyber Monday meets Comic Con!

The Genius Behind the Art

The magic of Sophia beingAI is further brought to life by comic artist Pat Lee, who has previously tickled our imaginations through iconic works with DC and Marvel. From the pages of comic books to the blockchain, we’re living in an era where your favorite characters can also be your virtual companions.

Alethea AI and Noah’s Ark: A New Digital Frontier

Partnering with Alethea AI, who is spearheading the Noah’s Ark Metaverse project, this collection isn’t just a set of pretty pictures; it’s a bridge into a new digital experience filled with interactive, intelligent NFTs. The aspiration behind this interactive universe? To blend humanity with technology in a way that inspires love and fosters infinite possibilities. Or to put it another way—let’s get weird in the Metaverse!

Sophia’s NFT Journey So Far

Interestingly, this isn’t Sophia’s first dance in the NFT spotlight. She dipped her toes into the NFT universe earlier this year with an auction on the Nifty Gateway platform, demonstrating her tech-savvy side. However, this latest venture comes with an entirely new level of sophistication, merging art, technology, and a sprinkle of adventures in virtual space! If you thought she knew about cryptocurrencies back in 2019 but didn’t own any, now she’s trading them for virtual existence. Who says robots can’t have fun?
