Students use Google Assistant to create a voice-activated robot that makes grilled cheese toasties

Daily Mail - Science & tech

A voice-controlled robot that can make you perfect grilled cheese sandwiches on demand has been created by a team of students in the US. 'Cheesborg' is the brainchild of engineer Tayor Tabb, 24, and colleagues, who created the toastie maker at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The process begins with a voice command to a connected Google Home smart assistant. The cheesy contraption uses a vacuum to begin to assemble the sandwich -- loading two slices of bread and one slice of cheese onto its conveyor belt. Next, the conveyor moves the ingredients into a sandwich press and closes the lid ready for grilling.

Using artificial intelligence to find out who fancies me

#artificialintelligence

"I've been meaning to message you," opens a break-up text from an ex. "Sorry for my ridiculously slow reply," reads another. And my favourite, begins: "Yo sorry my bad, been a bit of a wasteman. He was, definitely, parring me off. These exchanges are searingly familiar to most people who find themselves on dating apps in the current hellscape โ€“ the headscratching, soul-searching, and analysing of old messages to find out where it all went wrong.

"There's so much potential for miscommunication over text," the app's creator Es Lee tells Dazed, "meaning you often end up ruining a relationship, or not giving it a full chance.
