In my last post, I introduced the concept of causal learning and its role in advancing machine intelligence towards human-like capabilities. While conventional machine learning has granted robots with impressive skills — from recognizing complex patterns to adapting in dynamic environments — it has its limitations. As the expectations for robots to operate seamlessly in […]
Today’s deep learning models excel at prediction but lack the human-like ability of causal reasoning. While we’ve witnessed significant progress in machine learning applied to big data problems – such as computer vision, natural language processing, and consumer segmentation – some researchers argue that data alone is insufficient to develop machine intelligence on the level […]
The world of robotics is full of innovation and potential, and at the forefront of this field are developments that facilitate the collective operation of multiple robots. The concept of robots working in teams, known as cooperative robotics, presents a new horizon of opportunities and applications. Cooperative robotics involves groups of robots working together, typically […]
The prospect of a future where artificial intelligence (AI) powered robots perform everyday tasks like washing dishes or walking dogs has long been a popular science fiction trope. Today, while AI continues to make significant strides, integrating these capabilities into physical robots remains a formidable challenge. So, what is holding back the development of these […]
As discussed in my previous articles from this series, the increasing adoption of collaborative robots, or cobots, has generated significant enthusiasm for their potential to revolutionize industries and enhance human productivity. However, this excitement should be tempered by a thoughtful examination of the ethical considerations surrounding their use and the impact they may have on […]
Collaborative robots, or cobots, are gaining popularity due to their versatility and ability to work alongside human workers. While they have already made considerable progress in factory settings, cobots are now making their way into our homes and workplaces. According to a recent report by Business Wire, the global market for collaborative robots is expected […]
The rapid expansion of robotics technology across a wide range of industries has sparked concerns about the potential displacement of human workers. However, collaborative robots, or cobots, offer a promising alternative to traditional industrial robots by extending the capabilities, efficiency, and safety of human workers. In an era of aging populations, deglobalization, and a renewed […]
