The doll - called the Companion Robot X04-SYNC2 - can have "context-aware" chats using AI chatbot ChatGPT, learning from past chats to adapt to
future
ones.
They also come with robotic facial expressions and arms and hands that move to convey expression.
And like something from a sci-fi epic, the dolls have micro cameras planted in the eyes to allow them to recognise people by face tracking.
Uncanny footage shows the bot flexing its arms, moving its eyes around and winking.

In one clip, the robot even serves up a coffee to men looking on in amazement.
So far only three have been sold since they went on sale at the start of 2024.
But Cloud Climax, the online UK-based sex doll store, insists there has been a surge in demand for silicone lovers since the pandemic and sees no signs of it slowing up.
A spokesperson told The Sun: "Since 2020, we've seen a significant rise in demand for sex dolls and companion robots.

It is the site's most expensive doll and is thought to be the most expensive of its kind anywhere in the world.

This model offers a choice of six faces, seven height preferences, three eye colours and even a choice of feet.
Emma has a self-heating mechanism "ideal for cuddling" and uses TPE material for the skin.
Like the Companion robot, it holds conversations and learns as it goes along.

AI model dubbed Spain's 'hottest woman'
A NEW type of influencer has been taking the internet by storm earning big bucks and racking up a 'phenomenal' 250,000 Instagram followers in just six months.
Aitana Lopez is a sight to behold and with her luscious pink locks, snatched waist and flawless skin she is envied by many - but she has one astonishing secret.
The 25-year-old - who models for Spanish fashion agency The Clueless - is a state-of-the art AI creation designed to save the company money and time.
Despite her computer-generated status being revealed in her Instagram bio, fans of the model still believe she's the real deal and invite her to socialise and spend time with them.
Diana Nunez, who co-founded The Clueless with Rubén Cruz, told The Sun how the 'incredibly convincing' influencer was born.
"Initially, most of her followers didn't question her authenticity, they genuinely believed in her existence," she said.
'From day one, we received compliments on her beauty, invitations to hang out in the city, and more.
'Even after the media revealed she was an AI creation, many followers still expressed their love for her.'
Now, it is used by individuals and businesses to such an extent it has sparked fears entire workforces could be wiped out.
Earlier this month, a man told The Sun he'd spent more than £25,000 on a collection of sex dolls to stop himself from cheating on his wife.
There have even been suggestions sex robots could one day replace humans as the default relationship preference.
For now though, Cloud Climax insists indistinguishable robots are a long way off just yet.
The spokesperson added: 'We are still quite far from developing sex dolls or robots that are truly indistinguishable from humans.
"While advancements in materials like silicone and TPE have improved the feel and appearance of artificial skin, they still fall short of replicating the complex texture, warmth, and responsiveness of real human tissue.
'Robotic movement is another limitation.
"Although facial expressions and basic gestures have improved, achieving natural, fluid body movements and fine motor skills remains a significant challenge.
'On the cognitive side, while AI has advanced in natural language processing, current systems still lack true emotional intelligence, deep contextual understanding, and the ability to adapt seamlessly to social cues.
'Most sex dolls today remain relatively static, with limited interactivity.
"Achieving a truly human-like experience in appearance, movement, and behaviour will likely require decades of further innovation across AI, robotics, and materials
science
."
The Sun has approached ChatGPT.

Kneecap at Glastonbury: BBC won't stream Irish group's set live but agree to upload it later tonight

It comes after one of the band's members, Liam Óg Ó hAnnaidh, 27, was charged with allegedly displaying a flag in support of UK-proscribed terrorist organisation, Hezbollah, while saying 'up Hamas, up Hezbollah' at a gig in November last year. Last week the rapper, who performs under the stage name Mo Chara, was cheered by many hundreds of supporters as he arrived with bandmates Naoise O Caireallain and JJ O Dochartaigh at Westminster Magistrates' Court in Free Mo Chara T-shirts. A BBC spokesperson today said: 'Whilst the BBC doesn't ban artists, our plans ensure that our programming meets our editorial guidelines. 'We don't always live-stream every act from the main stages and look to make an on-demand version of Kneecap's performance available on our digital platforms, alongside more than 90 other sets.' It is understood the BBC needs to consider the performance before making a final decision. The band said on Instagram: 'The propaganda wing of the regime has just contacted us…. 'They WILL put our set from Glastonbury today on the I-player later this evening for your viewing pleasure.' He was released on unconditional bail until the next hearing at the same court on August 20. Last week Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer said it would not be 'appropriate' for them to perform in the slot, which is due to go ahead on the Somerset festival's West Holts Stage at 4pm on Saturday.

Conservative Party leader Kemi Badenoch also said the BBC 'should not be showing' the trio's set in a post on social media last week. Badenoch said in an X post, which was accompanied by an article from The Times which said the BBC had not banned the group: 'The BBC should not be showing Kneecap propaganda. 'One Kneecap band member is currently on bail, charged under the Terrorism Act. 'As a publicly funded platform, the BBC should not be rewarding extremism.' Kneecap are not listed as one of the acts being shown live by the broadcaster. Michael Eavis, creator of the Glastonbury Festival said, in an apparent backing of Kneecap, that if people didn't like the politics of the festival, they could 'go somewhere else'. Ahead of the group's set, an Avon and Somerset Police spokesperson told the PA news agency: 'Ticket-holders can once again expect to see uniformed officers on site at Glastonbury Festival 24/7 throughout the festival as part of our extensive policing operation ensuring it is safe for everyone attending, as well as those who live nearby.' Neil Young, best known for songs such as Rockin' In The Free World, Like A Hurricane and Cinnamon Girl, will headline the festival's Pyramid Stage on Saturday night with his band the Chrome Hearts. The BBC confirmed that Young's set will be broadcast live after it initially agreed not to show the concert 'at the artist's request'. Another act expected to draw a big crowd is Brat star Charli XCX, who will headline the Other Stage around the same time Young and Grammy Award-winning rapper Doechii will also perform. The 1975 headlined the festival's Pyramid Stage on Friday night, with the performance seeing singer Matty Healy joke he was his generation's 'best songwriter'. After performing Part Of The Band he sat on a stool while smoking and sipping his drink, Healy said: 'What this moment is making me realise is that I probably am the best songwriter of my generation. 'The best what they say, a poet, ladies and gentlemen, is what I am. 'Generational words and I just wanted to remind you, over the next couple of minutes, these lyrics are poetry, I believe.' The band then launched into Chocolate from their 2013 self-titled debut, before Healy remarked 'I was only joking about being a poet' at its conclusion. Made up of four school friends, the group comprised of singer Healy, bassist Ross MacDonald, guitarist Adam Hann and drummer George Daniel were headlining the festival for the first time. Friday also saw a performance from Scottish music star Lewis Capaldi who told the Glastonbury crowds 'I'm back baby' as he played a surprise set, two years after a performance at the festival during which he struggled to manage his Tourette syndrome symptoms. The musician, who announced a break from touring shortly after his performance at the festival in 2023, has just released a new song called Survive. He told fans: 'It's so good to be back. I'm not going to say much up here today, because if I do, I think I will probably start crying.' He ended his performance with Somebody You Loved, the track that Glastonbury crowds helped him to sing when he struggled with the condition which can cause physical and verbal tics in 2023. Earlier on Friday, alternative pop star Lorde surprised fans with a secret set at Worthy Farm, performing her latest album Virgin, which was released on Friday, in full. Scottish indie rockers Franz Ferdinand brought out former Doctor Who actor Peter Capaldi during their Other Stage set while they were playing Take Me Out, one of their best-known songs. Celebrities who have been spotted at the festival include singer Harry Styles, Oscar-winning actor Eddie Redmayne and Stranger Things star Joseph Quinn. Friday saw hot dry weather which hardened the Worthy Farm surface after rain in the early hours of the morning, with festival goers expected to see temperatures in the mid-20s on Saturday. The Met Office's Grahame Madge said: 'We anticipate highs of 26C on Saturday, with high levels of humidity. By Monday temperatures can be anticipated to be over 30C. 'There is always the chance of a light shower, but there is nothing in the forecast that suggests anything heavier for Saturday for Somerset.' Avon and Somerset Police said there had been 38 crimes reported at the festival and 14 arrests made. Performing in the coveted Sunday legends slot this year is Sir Rod Stewart, who previously said he will be joined by his former Faces band member Ronnie Wood, as well as other guests. Sir Rod's performance will come after he postponed a string of concerts in the US, due to take place this month, while he recovered from flu. The BBC is providing livestreams of the five main stages: Pyramid, Other, West Holts, Woodsies and The Park.
