Parliamentary committee makes history by taking evidence from a ROBOT

British MPs made history today as they took evidence from a robot for the first time ever. Pepper the robot spoke to the education select committee on the rise of artificial intelligence and how UK schools should respond. The stunt was the first time a non-human has been invited to speak to Parliament in its 700-year history. Pepper, who spoke in an America accent, is a humanoid robot based at the University of Middlesex. Education Select Committee chairman and Tory MP Robert Halfon invited the machine to speak to MPs after being impressed with her on a visit to the university.
