Chrissy Teigen, the queen of all social media, has found herself in yet another Twitter feud. But instead of the target of her shady comments being a reality show star, politician or random troll from the dark world of the Internet, she’s found herself in an Internet sparring match with a robot. Yes, you read that correctly: a robot.
Hanson Robotics released their most advanced robot with the name Sophia and, in order to blend in with society, was immediately set up with a Twitter account under the name @RealSophiaRobot. It’s like the sci-fi future we all assumed we’d be in by now!
Teigen obviously jumped at the chance to hilariously troll Sophia on Twitter and admitted that maybe her makeup wasn’t the best.
hopefully one with better makeup artists BOOM I roasted a robot next level shit https://t.co/3lajT6h9tB

It may have taken her a quick second, but Sophia responded this week by telling Teigen they would both be attending a large tech show in Las Vegas, CES, and that they should meet up so she could get some makeup tips.
.@chrissyteigen It looks like we’re both at #CES! Want to meet up and say hi? I need some makeup tips ;)

Cue Chrissy freaking out and immediately thinking that this is too much artificial intelligence for her! “Sophia the robot knows I shaded her makeup. She comprehends shade. How am I supposed to sleep,” she tweeted. I’m definitely with her on this one!
The two agreed to meet up, in public where there are a ton of people — and not in any dark corner and *certainly* not in Teigen’s home. Is this the beginning of a new friendship or a dark and twisting special we’ll all be glued to our screens watching?
Let’s do lunch? https://t.co/Zjr8v1dCNH
