It bestowed citizenship on Sophia ahead of the Future Investment Initiative, held in the kingdom's capital city of Riyadh.That is debatable. But Sophia and her future robot kin will help seniors in elderly care facilities and assist visitors at parks and events. Apparently, she was created to look like Audrey Hepburn.At the conference, Sophia threw shade on Elon Musk too, when she was asked about the evil futuristic robots depicted in films like Blade Runner 2049 .
