The Robots Are Coming
It seems like everyone's about to be able to have their own personal robots soon. Scientists at Stanford are trying to create a robot to do tasks around the house, such as load and unload the dishwasher or cleaning up around the house. They're tryingt o develop a rudimentary form of A.I. for the original designs, but also trying to go further with it. "The ultimate aim for artificial intelligence is to build a robot that can create and execute plans to achieve a goal."
"'Within a decade we hope to develop the technology that will make it useful to put a robot in every home and office.'"
They've got some big names backing them: "Funding for the project has come from the National Science Foundation, DARPA and industrial technology companies Intel, Honda, Ricoh and Google."
Should be...interesting.
