Is genuine artificial consciousness possible? Should we protect jobs from automation? Your questions on AI and robots answered here.
Building genuine empathy into artificial intelligence is harder than it looks. It might be a while before we see the genuine article in robots.
Technology is critical for innovation, yet schools struggle to get students interested in this area. Could teaching robotics change this?
A call to ban sex robots is the same knee-jerk reaction faced by other technological advances, and as wrong-headed.
Sorting and folding clothes is a lot more difficult than when you’re a robot.
Have questions about artificial intelligence or the future of robotics? Wondering if your job is vulnerable to automation? Concerned about superintelligent AI? Now’s your chance to ask.
If we can make artificial intelligent machines that act more human it raises the question of what sort of emotions we’d like them to express.
For a growing number of artists, academics, researchers and scientists, dance represents a promising new frontier of exploration. The annual DANscienCE festival shines a spotlight on their findings.
There is much debate on the ethics of artificial intelligence machines that are designed to kill. But who’s responsible when a non-lethal AI system causes damage, harm or even death?
Some have argued we should not ban but embrace offensive autonomous weapons, or ‘killer robots’. But the arguments against a ban are weak.
