USA Just Released Fully Functioning Female Robots 2
America has forever been on the forefront of all types of innovation and technological
advancements.
Let’s take a look at some of the American companies that are doing dazzling things with
AI robots.
From making smart consumer products to creating the first human-like artificial brain, the
list is never-ending, so keep watching!
A Dramatic Future It’s a scenario movies and sci-fi stories
have predicted for years: an intelligent fleet of human-serving AI robots become too smart
and take over the world.
This common storyline has some people worried it will come to real-world fruition — thanks
to technological developments in artificial intelligence and robotics.
For many others, though, applying intelligence to robotics is all about furthering innovation.
And innovation there has been.
Robotics date back to 1898, when Nikola Tesla used radio waves to remotely direct the movement
of a robot boat in a miniature man-made pond during an electrical exhibition at Madison
Square Garden in New York.
That experiment led to Tesla becoming the father of robotics.
Roughly 50 years later, British polymath Alan Turing explored the mathematical potential
of artificial intelligence.
He believed if people could use information and reason to solve problems, why couldn’t
computing machinery do the same thing, according to his 1950 paper Computing Machinery and
Intelligence.
The paper covered ways to build intelligent machines and test them as part of the Turing
Test.
An AI Robot With robotics on the scene and AI getting
a closer look among researchers, scientists and mathematicians, it didn’t take long
before the two were combined together to create an AI robot.
The Stanford Research Institute (SRI) developed AI robot Shakey during 1966 to 1972.
It marked the first mobile robot that could reason about its actions, according to the
Computer History Museum.
Things have progressed and we’ve reached a time wherein all countries around the globe
are trying to get their hands on and become the forerunner of the latest and most advanced
robot and AI tech.
Let’s now take a look at some of the American companies that are leading the markets towards
never-heard-of advancements in the robotic and artificial intelligence fields, and are
doing truly amazing things in AI Robot Technology!
