Seems legit.

AI is the hot topic of the moment, and the United Nations' International Telecommunications Union decided it wasn't going to be left out. The agency organised a news conference at the AI For Good summit in Geneva on 7 July, at which human reporters were introduced to and then asked questions of nine humanoid robots.

Other highlights include the humanoid robot Sophia saying humanoid robots could lead with"a greater level of efficiency and effectiveness than human leaders" before going on to serve up some lip service about working together. One called Grace, a medical robot, declared with total confidence she would not"be replacing any existing jobs". Which is just straight-up bollocks.
