Robotics are beginning to cross that line from absolutely primitive motion to motion that resembles animal or human behavior.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There are an endless number of things to discover about robotics. A lot of it is just too fantastic for people to believe.
We're going to have robots in the home, but they're not going to be walking. Legs are complicated, unreliable and costly. Robots are going to look and be designed to meet the function they're supposed to perform. People will still name them and connect with them.
Robots are good at things that are structured.
We're seeing the arrival of conversational robots that can walk in our world. It's a golden age of invention.
We're fascinated with robots because they are reflections of ourselves.
People are fascinated by robots because they're machines that can mimic life.
Sometimes a technology is so awe-inspiring that the imagination runs away with it - often far, far away from reality. Robots are like that. A lot of big and ultimately unfulfilled promises were made in robotics early on, based on preliminary successes.
Our robots are signing up for online learning. After decades of attempts to program robots to perform complex tasks like flying helicopters or surgical suturing, the new approach is based on observing and recording the motions of human experts as they perform these feats.
I visualize a time when we will be to robots what dogs are to humans, and I'm rooting for the machines.
You could claim that moving from pixelated perception, where the robot looks at sensor data, to understanding and predicting the environment is a Holy Grail of artificial intelligence.
