Humans are no match for artificial intelligence – “It’s not even close,” says Nobel laureate
In an interview with The Guardian, Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman opined that artificial intelligence (AI) would be the undisputed winner in the workplace battle between robots and humans. “Clearly AI is going to win [against human intelligence]. It’s not even close,” he told the paper. “How people are going to adjust to this is a fascinating problem.” Kahneman, […]

Engineers develop an “octocopter” carpenter drone capable of attaching shingles to a roof using an equipped nail gun
Engineers from the University of Michigan (UMich) have developed a robot carpenter that can autonomously attach roof shingles using an onboard nail gun. The roofing device is an octocopter drone prefigured to make its own calculations on the force required to bury a nail. A human operator just needs to turn a virtual switch to start the roofing. […]

A new generation of robotics: Researchers design self-healing robotic hands that don’t require human intervention
Scientists are now developing robots that can feel pain and sense damage. Better yet, these robots will not only be able to sense that they’ve been damaged, but they will also be able to repair the damage themselves without human intervention. These self-healing robots have soft, robotic hands made through 3D printing using a jelly-like plastic […]

Engineers develop “Vegebot” that can harvest lettuce
While using machines to harvest crops isn’t a new concept, using a robot that does so through machine learning is. A team of engineers from the University of Cambridge developed a vegetable-picking robot that uses machine learning to harvest a commonplace, but challenging, agricultural crop: lettuce. The team, led by Cambridge’s Dr. Fumiya Iida, initially trained their […]
