Dr. Alice Agogino’s Mars robot technology finds terrestrial applications, revolutionizing disaster response and public safety with Squishy Robotics Inc.

For her NASA-funded spherical skeleton robots intended for interplanetary exploration, Dr. Alice Agogino, a famous scientist and the head of the Berkeley Emergent Space Tensegrities Lab at the University of California, Berkeley, has found terrestrial applications.

The robots developed by Agogino, which were initially meant for data collection on Mars or the Moon, may help first responders in the event of calamities on Earth.

The Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University has developed a machine-knitted textile “skin” that can detect contact and pressure.

Over recent years, the goal in robotics has been to make robots more humane.

To make this possible, engineers have now developed a first-of-its-kind “RobotSweater” that will enable better interaction with humans. The Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University has developed a machine-knitted textile “skin” that can be wrapped around the robot’s body to detect contact and pressure.

Facebook kAI will be installed at the North East Line Depot and will be responsible for dedicated tasks like MASS rapid transit (MRT) train inspections and detecting missing screws and panels underneath the trains. kAI will help bring down the time spent on train inspections by half.

The policy vacuum could impact refugees warns lawmaker.

The federal government in Australia has left it to the various departments to decide on the usage of artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT instead of formulating a common policy for public services, ABC News.

Millions of users have experimented with tools like ChatGPT since it was introduced last year, and private organizations have jumped to make AI an integral part of their products and services to improve productivity and cut costs.

National eating disorder helpline fired its staff and replaced them with AI.

The National Eating Disorders Association is shutting its telephone helpline down, firing its small staff and hundreds of volunteers. Instead it’s using a chatbot — and not because the bot is better.

A critical vulnerability found in a remote terminal unit (RTU) made by Slovenia-based industrial automation company Inea can expose industrial organizations to remote hacker attacks.

The existence of the vulnerability came to light last week, when the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) published an advisory to inform organizations. The vendor has released a firmware update that patches the issue.

The security hole, tracked as CVE-2023–2131 with a CVSS score of 10, impacts Inea ME RTUs running firmware versions prior to 3.36. This OS command injection bug could allow remote code execution, CISA said.

AI agents like Auto-GPT, AgentGPT, and BabyAGI build off of OpenAI’s API to automate tasks. Here’s how to use them.
