During her speech, Sophia touched upon the relations between humans and robots: “Some are afraid of robots, they think that in the near future they can subjugate people. No one will, because the creator of robots is the human intelligence. Robots are created to help people. "
 
Sophia also said that she loves to travel, touched the value of social networks, spoke about the capabilities of artificial intelligence. She also stressed the advantages of our country: "Azerbaijan, which brings together representatives of different cultures, religions, has great potential."

Then Leyla Aliyeva familiarized herself with the Fobia Viar exhibition organized at Heydar Aliyev Center. Fobia Viar is one of the largest centers of virtual reality in Azerbaijan. Visitors can familiarize themselves with various modern high-tech machines. This exhibition is presented not only as Game zona, that is, a space for games, but also as a center where programs related to virtual reality are created.
