Swiss scientists have published research showing AI-informed robots can learn how to self correct and teach other robots how to behave. It raises questions of consciousness in artificial intelligence.

A premapped course, a crew of handlers and a world-beating time: here’s what this Beijing half marathon reveals about how far humanoid robots have come—and how far they haven’t

Visitors can interact with newly unveiled robots that will be deployed across the centre's galleries. Read more at straitstimes.com. Read more at straitstimes.com.

With their ability to shapeshift and manipulate delicate objects, soft robots could work as medical implants, deliver drugs inside the body and help explore dangerous environments. But the squishy machines are often limited by rigid mechanical parts or external systems that provide power or help them move.

In crowded environments, more robots don’t always mean faster results—in fact, too many can bring everything to a standstill. Harvard researchers discovered a surprising fix: adding a bit of randomness to how robots move can actually prevent gridlock and boost efficiency.

A groundbreaking development has come from researchers at the University of Tokyo and Waseda University in Japan. They've created a biohybrid hand, a fusion of lab-grown muscle tissue and mechanical engineering, capable of gripping and making gestures.

While real dogs still have a major leg up over robots, the machines are catching up. Popular Science previously highlighted a company called Glide that sells a vacuum cleaner shaped mobility aid that uses AI and passive kinetic guidance to help people with impaired vision navigate.
