This is a good read if you're trying to understand the future in autonomous tech and AI. #RodneyBrooks is a pioneer in #robotics and #AI (parent of the roomba among other things) and just an interesting guy. He benchmarks his 2018 predictions against progress at the start of every year. I find […]

Robotics Pioneer Warns Against Close Interaction with Humanoids

MIT emeritus Rodney Brooks urges keeping a minimum three‑metre distance from full‑size walking robots after a Digit unit toppled when he was too close. Read more: getnews.me/robotics-pioneer-warns-a... #rodneybrooks #humanoidrobots #safety

#RodneyBrooks: Despite significant investment, #humanoidrobots are unlikely to achieve #humanlevel #dexterity in the near future. The manipulation challenge remains a significant #hurdle, with existing #robotichands lacking the robustness, force, and longevity required for real-world applications.…
