China Now Has Over 1 Million Public Charging Points
Posted by Shubham Ghosh Roy in categories: sustainability, transportation
China is the world largest electric vehicle market and not surprisingly, has the worldâs highest number of charging points.
According to the China Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure Promotion Alliance (EVCIPA) (via Gasgoo), as of the end of September 2,021 there were 2.223 million individual charging points in the country. Thatâs a 56.8% increase year-over-year.
However, this is the total number, which consists of over 1 million publicly accessible points, and an even higher number of almost 1.2 million private points (mostly for fleets, as we understand).

A model that translates everyday human activities into skills for an embodied artificial agent
Posted by Dan Kummer in category: robotics/AI
This could hopefully be used to train robot hands how to handle everyday objects, a billion times over.
Over the past decade or so, many roboticists and computer scientists have been trying to develop robots that can complete tasks in spaces populated by humans; for instance, helping users to cook, clean and tidy up. To tackle household chores and other manual tasks, robots should be able to solve complex planning tasks that involve navigating environments and interacting with objects following specific sequences.
While some techniques for solving these complex planning tasks have achieved promising results, most of them are not fully equipped to tackle them. As a result, robots cannot yet complete these tasks as well as human agents.

Artificial Intelligence offers many challenges, including criminals using AI to break the law, but also of AI, robots, and androids becoming criminals themselves.

Marine Corps will use AI to revamp recruiting and retention models
Posted by Kelvin Dafiaghor in categories: military, robotics/AI
His views on the talent management system are roughly similar: there will be some new costs intended to be covered by savings elsewhere, though he admits heâs not sure yet whether the service will see a net savings or if the additional costs may mean it fields a smaller force.
âWe havenât figured it all out yet,â Berger said. âOur premise is we canât afford not to do this. Whether it comes out plus in the black or the red, we donât know yet.â
The Marine Corps would spend more money on higher salaries for higher-ranked Marines. It would spend more money on bonuses and benefits to entice qualified Marines to stick around. It would have to pay for digitized personnel systems and the AI tools and decision aids. However, it would spend less on personnel who process new recruit applications, if it were bringing in fewer Marines and screening fewer candidates.
