Sophia’s main specialty is AI (Artificial Intelligence). What Sophia’s final outcome will be is still uncertain. But scientists and engineers have no doubt about where we want to take AI-dependent Self Driving Car technology. We actually want to make smart cars. You can see here to get ideas about Smart Car.
If the ultimate goal of making a Sophia is to make a perfect human perfect machine, then the ultimate goal of making a smart car is to make a car that runs on its own, knows all the roads of the world, and will never have an accident.
The first is a little difficult, there is still a long way to go.
