Artificial intelligence technology are looking for ways to transform the fast food industry and KFC introduces this innovation in its new store branch in Shanghai, China. Artificial intelligence (AI) first emerged in the late 1940s. But today, AI is transforming most if not all industries, including the foodservice industry. In fact, a company called Momentum Machines has created an AI-driven robot that can make one burger from scratch every 10 seconds in an hour.

Some of the most powerful people in the world have gathered this week to discuss the most pressing issues affecting humanity. And the overwhelming conclusion is that the robots are coming. At the Milken Institute's Global Conference in California, at least four panels focused ontechnology taking over markets to mining, and most importantly,jobs.

A swarm of robotic cockroaches and an army of spider-bots the size of your arm might seem like something out of your worst nightmare. But these menacing machines working together might just be the future of technology. The robo-roaches might eventually help search and rescue teams, and the creators of the spider bots hope they will help build planes and ships one day. VelociRoACH (pictured) is a crawling hexapod bot and research platform built by the University of California, Berkeley.

The role of the doctor could soon become redundant, overtaken by forms of Artificial Intelligence (AI) which will test, diagnose and treat disease just as well as any human medical professional could if not better, two doctors from New Zealand's Whangarei Hospital predict. This worldwide robotic vision of the future, estimated to be 10-to-20 years away, the editorial suggests doctors could be eradicated from the payroll with medical assistants, midwives and nurses filling the more human-based skill gaps that AI is unable to perform. An editorial, published in the New Zealand Medical Journal today, says the secret behind an AI takeover is a unique pattern-recognition algorithm that synthesises and compares a patient's data to predefined disease categories. Once a diagnosis is delivered, AI can then recommend an evidence-based treatment, specific to each patient. "Over the coming years, AI will challenge the traditional role of the doctor," the paper reads.

While the e-tailer recently became the fastest company ever to reach a billion-dollar valuation, we stand by our earlier prediction that it will fail. Winners: Brands using Kik to sell products. The app's chatbot function lets retailers replicate the experience of interacting with a salesperson. Bottled water sales will exceed those of soft drinks for the first time this year, but Coke and Pepsi's investments in Dasani and Aquafina prevent them from losing out completely. Stack up the fortunes of the 50 richest billionaires in the world, and you get 1.5 trillion - more than the GDP of Australia or Spain.

Second stage continuing to carry JCSAT-14 to a Geosynchronous Transfer Orbit. This is the second successful touchdown in a row on a floating platform, after the last one in April. There were previously four failed attempts. SpaceX also made a successful landing on a ground-based pad in December. About two and a half minutes after the launch, the rocket's first stage was scheduled to shut down and separate, leaving the second stage to deliver the satellite into its intended orbit more than 25,000 miles (40,000 km) above the Earth.

One month after landing its first-stage rocket booster on a drone ship, SpaceX repeated the feat and launched a commercial communications satellite late Thursday night. SpaceX's Falcon 9 rocket was launched at 10:21 p.m. PST from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, and video of the event was streamed live. Weather conditions pushed the launch from Wednesday to Thursday. The Falcon 9 rocket carried the JCSAT-14 satellite into a geosynchronous transfer orbit. The satellite, operated by the Japanese communications company SKY Perfect JSAT Corp., will replace another of the firm's satellites and provide coverage to Asia, Oceania, Russia and the Pacific Islands.

When a proud parent coos, or pokes out their tongue it warms their heart to see their baby following suit and many believe their little darling is copying them as they peer over the cot. But new research has found that babies up to the age of two months are incapable of copying facial expressions, gestures or speech. Instead, any exaggerated movements the newborns make are simply because they are responding to excitement to the interaction. When a proud parent coos, or pokes out their tongue, it warms their heart to see their baby following suit and many believe their little darling is copying them as they peer over the cot. While it may look like they are imitating the example of their elders, they are making gestures they would have made anyway.

Nasa has announced that it has found evidence of flowing water on Mars. Scientists have long speculated that Recurring Slope Lineae -- or dark patches -- on Mars were made up of briny water but the new findings prove that those patches are caused by liquid water, which it has established by finding hydrated salts. Several hundred camped outside the London store in Covent Garden. The 6s will have new features like a vastly improved camera and a pressure-sensitive "3D Touch" display

"Most of the benefits we see from automation is about higher quality and fewer errors, but in many cases it does reduce labor," Michael Chui, a partner at the McKinsey Global Institute, said on Tuesday during a panel on "Is Any Job Truly Safe?" The four-day annual conference, which began on Sunday, has 3,500 invite-only participants exploring "The Future of Human Kind." Technology has not only done away with low-wage, low-skill jobs, some of the more than 700 speakers said. They cited robots operating trucks in some Australian mines; corporate litigation software replacing employees with advanced degrees who used to sift through thousands of documents prior to trials; and on Wall Street, the automation of jobs previously done by bankers with MBAs or PhDs. "Anyone whose job is moving data from one spreadsheet to another ..., that's what is going to get automated," said Daniel Nadler, chief executive of Kensho, a financial services analytics company partly owned by Goldman Sachs Group Inc. "Goldman Sachs will be in here in 10 years, JPMorgan will be here. They're just going to be much more efficient in terms of operating leverage and headcount," he added.
