If you want to share any video about robots or news about robot technology / AI breakthroughs; this is your thread. I'll start with this video below. :)
Pretty soon, there could be robots that could carry heavy supplies for the mountain hikers. And there could be robots that would do search and rescue missions. I even think people might stop calling a robot as 'it', and start referring to a robot as 'who' instead of 'that'.
No wonder humans are becoming so wimpy. Just let the machine do all of the heavy lifting.
Maybe, but it could be helpful for the eldery :P
Well that is the entire point. Japan's entire robot industry was born because of declining birth rates which meant that there wouldn't be enough people to take care of an aging population. But now able body people use them to pour their goddamn tea for them. I mean what the hell man. :P

QuoteThe AI has designed interlocking food containers that are easy for robots to grasp and a warning light that flashes in a rhythm that is hard to ignore.
Patents offices insist innovations are attributed to humans - to avoid legal complications that would arise if corporate inventorship were recognised.
The academics say this is "outdated".
And it could see patent offices refusing to assign any intellectual property rights for AI-generated creations.
As a result, two professors from the University of Surrey have teamed up with the Missouri-based inventor of Dabus AI to file patents in the system's name with the relevant authorities in the UK, Europe and US.

I knew a guy who was a frequent StarCraft player. He told me that in addition to quick thinking, the quick movement of the hand and mouse is what matters to win in that game. The AI has advantages on both of these. The AI doesn't require a mouse to move. Movement is much more immediate. Moving the mouse and clicking to send a command is what delays the player. When adding up the movements, the time to move the mouse adds up. The AI would gather much more resources than the player could. By the time a confrontation begins, the player would find him or herself hopelessly outnumbered by the AI. Also, I believe that the AI knows the maps much more intricately down to the pixel. Thus, they know the best spots to send their attacks or observatory movements quickly. A human player would need to click here and there because he doesn't remember the exact locations that are shown in black (which the game does as unexplored). Also, the AI doesn't get distracted. The guy I knew was quite sensitive to distractions, even at the shape of the mouse and the keyboard. He'd bring his own mouse and keyboard when playing with a friend's computer. He said that when playing against the experts, even the little things matter in order to beat them. The irony is that the AI wins games because humans are so much more complex than the computer.

Quote from: The VergeThere's nothing I like more on bright and cold autumnal days than heading down to the park and watching the robot dogs playing in piles of leaves. To hear the scuttle of their little metal legs! To imagine the joy in their tiny silicon brains! Ah, what bliss.
Each one weighs about 20 pounds (or nine kilograms), is powered by 12 electrical motors, and can reach speeds of around six miles per hour (or 2.5 meters per second). As you can see in the video, they're all being steered manually using what look like RC controllers.
This is so creepy and wonderful at the same time.
EDIT: I thought it was real. The comments are saying that it's CGI...

Quote from: InverseThese important, though perhaps not world-shaking, uses of robots in science fiction echo a similar underwhelming use during Covid-19, as described in another Science essay "Combating Covid-19—The role of robotics in managing public health and infectious diseases." The essay describes how similar drones have been used in China to monitor the spread of disease and how delivery drones can be used to transport important medical supplies.
Disinfecting robots, similar to those described by Crichton, have also become a staple of Covid-19, along with robots designed to measure patrons' temperatures.

Quote from: GizmodoYou don't need to have seen documentaries like The Cove to feel uneasy about whales, sharks, and dolphins being held captive in tiny tanks at aquariums and theme parks. But instead of eliminating those experiences completely, which can help educate the public about these creatures, robots, like this self-contained swimming dolphin, could instead be the star attractions.

The massive robot, currently in construction in Gundam Factory Yokohama, Japan, is seen lifting and lowering its legs in preparation for its debut in October 2020, although that may be postponed due to the ongoing pandemic.

Artificial intelligence that obeys destructive programmers could be as dangerous as a computer revolt. (https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-30293863)

My feeling is that an AI of equal or greater intelligence/sentience to humans will still face the dilemma of simply not knowing what it wants to do or should do, if it has total freedom (for what it is). A concern is that it might not be truly sentient, but able to systematically kill people, or if it is, it could be designed with a switch that turns on killing machine mode, like chef's big plasma tv on south park.
I don't know what the future holds for our species, but I do imagine if true AI's can exist, that some of them are at least as worthy of getting to pass through time, or more so, than us.

QuoteOur generational breakthrough is a strategic surprise which ensures that Department of Defense and Intelligence Agencies will finally have the performance, power efficiency, and cost advantages they need to solve the most difficult challenges facing our nation; and with Prodigy by Tachyum, they will have it years earlier than previously expected. Prodigy processors, with their extremely high computational density, coupled with their breakthrough power efficiency, will directly enable humanity to create a 64 AI Exaflops supercomputer in 2022, capable of simulating the human brain in real-time. Just to put this into perspective, 64 Exaflops is 64 billion, billion operations per second, every second. Prodigy represents a major inflection point in the semiconductor industry.

QuoteI always thought the world would end up being run by two corporations, and I think we're headed in that direction. Tyrell Corp in Blade Runner probably owned 45-50% of the world, and one of his playthings was creating replication through DNA. Tyrell thinks he's god and in the first Blade Runner has made a Nexus female. And the Nexus female will have a limited lifespan because AI will get dangerous. We have to lock down AI. And I don't know how you're gonna lock it down. They have these discussions in the government, "How are we gonna lock down AI?" Are you f**king kidding? You're never gonna lock it down. Once it's out, it's out. If I'm designing AI, I'm going to design a computer whose first job is to design another computer that's cleverer than the first one. And when they get together, then you're in trouble, because then it can take over the whole electrical-monetary system in the world and switch it off. That's your first disaster. It's a technical hydrogen bomb. Think about what that would mean?
