Reith Lectures: AI and why people should be scared

Posted by in categories: drones, robotics/AI

Prof Stuart Russell, founder of the Center for Human-Compatible Artificial Intelligence, at the University of California, Berkeley, is giving this year’s Reith Lectures.

He said: Because I think it’s really important and really urgent.

And the reason it’s urgent is because the weapons that we have been talking about for the last six years or seven years are now starting to be manufactured and sold.

Robot Manufacturing Company Ready To Pay Out For A Humanoid Robot Appearance: Applications Is Over

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

Company received over 20,000 applications, and our client has decided to suspend the request collection. It will take up to 12 month to make the decision. Details: https://promo-bot.ai/media/humanoid_project/ Last week the manufacturer company of Promobot robots was seeking a face for a humanoid robot-assistant which will work in hotels, shopping malls and other crowded places. The company was ready to pay out to somebody willing to transfer the rights to use one’s face forever.

As of Monday, it appears that Promobot has stopped accepting applications for the opportunity. Additionally, further details regarding the project seem to have been removed from their site.

“The Promobot company wants to say thanks to everyone who responded to participation in the project. Today we have received over 20,000 applications and our client has decided to suspend the request collection… Those who didn’t have time to submit an application, please no worries, we are having more projects upcoming. Subscribe to our Instagram and stay tuned.” explained an update on the Promobot website.

Alibaba’s DAMO Academy Successfully Develops World’s First 3D Stacked In-Memory Computing Chip Based on DRAM

Posted by in categories: innovation, robotics/AI

On Friday, Alibaba Cloud announced in a social media post that its DAMO Academy has successfully developed a 3D stacked In-Memory Computing (IMC) chip.

Alibaba Cloud claims this is a breakthrough that can help overcome the von Neumann bottleneck, a limitation on throughput caused by the standard personal computer architecture. It meets the needs of artificial intelligence (AI) and other scenarios for high bandwidth, high capacity memory and extreme computing power. In the specific AI scenario tested by Alibaba, the performance of the chip is improved by more than 10 times.

With the outbreak of AI applications, the shortcomings of the existing computer system architecture are gradually revealed. The main problems are that, on the one hand, processing data brings huge energy consumption. Under the traditional architecture, the power consumption required for data transmission from memory unit to computing unit is about 200 times of that of computing itself, so the real energy consumption and time used for computing are very low.

People Disturbed by Robot With Ultra-Realistic Human Face Expressions

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

Some users over on Reddit were shocked by how empathetic they felt to Ameca’s many expressions. “This is actually quite charming,” one user wrote.

But the most common comparison — of course — was to the Terminator.

“Neat!” one Redditor commented. “Is this the Hunter-Killer or Human Infiltration model?”
