This is the future: Ray D’Arcy will be interviewing a robot this weekend
On this week's Ray D'Arcy show, Ray will be joined on the couch by one very unusual guest.
While most of Ray's guests are living breathing humans, this weekend viewers will be treated to the inner most thoughts of Stevie.
The catch? Well Stevie just so happens to be a robot.

Created by a team working out of Trinity College, Stevie is a robot designed to assist the elderly and disabled.
It has created waves across the international world of technology, and Ray will be the first to interview it live on TV.
Stevie is the first of its kind to be built in Ireland.
Along with Stevie, Ray will be joined by some of RTÉ's most beloved weather presenters Joanna Donnelly, Gerry Murphy and Michelle Dillon, who will be on hand to chat to Ray about Ireland's obsession with the weather.
Business woman and cancer survivor Majella O'Donnell and rugby analyst Brent Pope will also join Ray this week.
Both will be discussing their experiences with mental health.
