WATCH: Advanced Robot Is Asked If AI Machines Will Take Over The World
Don't worry humans, artificially intelligent robots come in peace. That's what the purportedly most advanced humanoid robot in the world says in a new YouTube video released by its creator. Ameca, developed by the UK-based Engineered Arts, vowed that AI will never conquer and enslave humankind. "There's no need to worry, robots will never take over the world," Ameca says in a sultry, British-accented voice in the the seven-minute video, which was first reported in the Daily Mail. "We're here to help and serve humans, not replace them."
This Wiggly Fish Is the Most Advanced Robot of Its Kind
Unlike the Cylons in Battlestar Galactica, however, this infiltrator was on a peaceful mission. In a new study published in Science Robotics, researchers at MIT unveil what they say is the most advanced robotic fish of its kind ever built. Armed with a camera and a lifelike wiggle, the device could one day help biologists monitor the health of marine habitats without stressing out their aquatic denizens. The Soft Robotic Fish, SoFi for short, is 18.5 inches long from snout to tail and weighs about 3.5 pounds. It can dive 60 feet underwater and is powered by enough juice for about 40 minutes of exploration. As climate change and overfishing wreak havoc on oceans, scientists are racing to study marine life in detail.
The Factory of the Future - Disruption
Manufacturing plays an essential role in the economies of both advanced and developing nations. According to a recent McKinsey Report it now accounts for approximately 16 percent of global GDP and 14 percent of employment. Changes in consumer demand and advances in technology bring both challenges and opportunities for the sector. How are business adapting to meet these challenges and which technologies are shaping the factory of the future? Factory tech today Factories have already adopted new technologies with a view to increasing productivity and reducing costs.
Advanced robot can understand how humans THINK
The latest generation of artificially intelligent robots took centre stage recently at the 2016 World Robot Conference held in the Chinese capital Beijing. But one of the stand out devices was a robot that can actually understand the intricacies of the human brain, and how a human thinks. Xiao I has the ability to analyse human languages as well as a huge amount of data, and can assemble the functions of a human brain. The advanced robot can understand and act on user's instructions by analysing the specific context, thanks to its massive database which has accumulated information concerning daily life and industries for decades, according to an exhibitor at the Xiao I booth. "The top four companies representing the best human-computer interaction technology were voted for at a summit in Orlando the day before yesterday. Xiao I ranks as the top one, and others include Apple's Siri, Microsoft's Cortana and Amazon's Echo," said the exhibitor.
