Robotics is the new face of AI. Is Canada missing the boat? | CBC News
"A global race is underway to bring robotics into our everyday lives, with a new generation of AI-powered robots promising greater flexibility. Rapid advancements in artificial intelligence mean robots are being adopted for tasks ranging from working alongside humans in warehouses, to delivering packages on city streets, to inspecting dangerous locations. What's more, robots are increasingly capable of learning on the job and experts say Canada stands to miss out if we don't embrace adoption at this critical time."
"The promise is that physical systems, when kitted out with sensors machines like robots, autonomous vehicles or industrial equipment can act logically and responsively in the world when paired with current approaches to AI. At CES, Google and American robotics company Boston Dynamics announced they're teaming up to test AI-powered robots in Hyundai auto factories two models of a machine named Atlas."
A global race is underway to integrate AI-powered robotics into everyday life, enabling machines to work alongside humans in warehouses, deliver packages, and inspect hazardous locations. Rapid AI advances are making robots more capable of learning on the job and more adaptable. The term "physical AI" describes sensor-equipped systems—robots, autonomous vehicles, industrial equipment—that can act logically and responsively when paired with current AI approaches. Google and Boston Dynamics announced tests of AI-powered Atlas robots in Hyundai auto factories. Traditional top-down programming is giving way to bottom-up, trainable robots that allow smaller companies to adopt robotics. Hallie Siegel is the CEO of the Canadian Robotics Council.
