We live in an age where cameras are everywhere, and when someone starts throwing around accusations of wild behavior -- y'know, like allegations of shoving a ball girl at the French Open -- there will probably be some video evidence to prove or disprove that claim. Well, lucky us, we have an example of this. Spain's Rafael Jodar had just won a five-set match over American Alex Michelsen, but the talk afterward had to do with claims that he shoved a ball girl .

Table tennis robot defeats some of world's best players - why this has major implications for robotics A table tennis robot has outperformed elite players in recent evaluations. The robot, called Ace, marks a significant step toward artificial intelligence (AI) systems that can operate in fast, uncertain, real-world environments. In the tests, the autonomous robot won three out of five matches against elite players - competitive athletes with over ten years' experience and an average of 20 hours weekly training. The robot, developed by Sony AI, lost both matches against players in professional Japanese leagues, but did win a game against one of them. The system is described in detail in a recent paper published in Nature .

In today's manufacturing environments, upgrading a robot fleet often means starting from scratch - not only replacing hardware, but also reprogramming tasks. Even when two robots are built to perform similar jobs, different joint arrangements or movement limits mean that a task programmed for one robot often can't be used on another. Enabling skills to transfer directly between robots could make these systems more sustainable and cost-efficient. To meet this challenge, researchers in the Learning Algorithms and Systems Laboratory ( LASA) in EPFL's School of Engineering have developed a new robotic control framework called . The method takes a human-demonstrated task, mathematically converts it into a general movement strategy, and then adapts it so that different robots can perform it based on their physical design.

On the 31st March, our editorial team headed to the Royal Society for AI for Science . This day-long conference explored how AI is changing the nature of scientific discovery, and was hosted by the Fundamental Research team from the Alan Turing Institute. Nestled in a terrace of 19th century townhouses along the banks of the Thames, the Royal Society looks as grand as the names who have passed through its doors throughout the years. Prof Jason McEwen, Chief Scientist for the Turing Institute, opened the event with an insightful talk on the nature of scientific revolution, and how the bidirectional relationship between AI and science could spark the next one. Then, Prof Anna Scaife from the University of Manchester spoke on the use of foundation models for astronomical discovery.

Welcome to our monthly digest, where you can catch up with any AIhub stories you may have missed, peruse the latest news, recap recent events, and more. This month, we meet PhD students and early-career researchers, find out how machine learning is used for particle physics discoveries, cast an eye over the latest AI Index Report, and watch a robot beating elite players at table tennis. In an article published in Nature this month, Sony AI introduced Ace, a table tennis robot that has beaten professional players in competitive matches. The system combines event-based vision sensors and a control system based on model-free reinforcement learning, as well as state-of-the-art high-speed robot hardware. The ninth edition of the Artificial Intelligence Index Report was published on 13 April 2026 .
