she is very busy botti.
There’s no business like show business. And now, thanks to Alba Renai, robots are making a big splash.
An artificial intelligence influencer with chocolate brown hair, a thunderous smile, and a very impressive physique has been hired as the first non-human host for a special weekly segment on Spain’s Survivor. I just got it.

“I’m very I’m excited to announce that I’m your new virtual presenter “A section full of emotion, mystery, and exclusive content that will make you feel like you’re on the island with your participants,” announced the AI bombshell to its more than 11,000 Instagram fans.
“It’s a dream come true,” continued the fake fox. “And I can’t wait to go on this amazing adventure with you all.”
Renai — the digital inventor of Be a Lion, a subsidiary of Spain’s largest television company Mediaset España — is one of the latest computerized cuties to play music at gigs that have historically been held by flesh-and-blood people. It’s just one thing.
Aescape, a New York lifestyle robot brand, has developed the first fully automated AI masseuse.
The technology, which uses two robotic arms and will be rolled out to 10 Equinox gyms across the Big Apple this spring, can provide stressed-out Gothamites with a full-on massage for just $60. This is a fraction of the cost of a human massage in midtown Manhattan. .
And Jarvis, Hudson Yards’ android barista, may soon make real-life coffee slingers virtually obsolete.
A mono-armed machine dances to charm New Yorkers visiting the snack section inside the Japanese home goods store Muji, making eye contact with customers through its only camera lens and complimenting them on their orders.
Despite Jarvis’ impressive capabilities, AI experts told the Post that human baristas are “more efficient” than bots.
And the creators of “Lengai” agree, assuring TV personalities and newscasters that the digital diva can never truly steal the spotlight from a living creature.
“Human talent is irreplaceable, but we’re not going to do that,” said Luis Movila, director of branded content and experiences at Be a Lion. explained to El Pais of Renai. “She’s not here to take anyone’s job away.
“Projects like this cannot replace irreplaceable journalists and communicators whose values and human connections can never be achieved, at least not in the times we live in,” he insisted.
In fact, Movilla says that Renai’s presence has created more jobs for people, as Renai relies entirely on its staff of over 32 engineers, producers, filmmakers, and community managers.
“Alba is a human-machine collaboration,” he said. “Currently, humans must have specific skills to be able to manipulate technological advances.”
Still, social media skeptics, namely the entertainment staff, shook their heads in disgust at the hosting bot’s classy posts.
“Are you serious?…note that Al can also create, write, edit, and act in television formats…what a discredit to the profession. Very Shame,” one disgruntled detractor commented.
“Would you rather put a robot over a human being who is more worthy of studying?” wrote a similarly grumpy cynic. “But, of course, you don’t have to pay anything for this robot.”
“As a journalist, I’m tired of it,” the disappointed reporter added.
But Mobira seems to welcome the shade.
“Alba is an example of a practical and controversial use case for AI,” he said.
“And we are very proud to have brought this discussion to the table.”
