![Evolution of Boston Dynamic’s Robots [1992-2023]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Rdm2ggtFvmQ/mqdefault.jpg)
In part one of Hello World's Pacific Northwest adventure, we visited the world's most curious human. Watch here: czcams.com/video/-woGAoTXdjE/video.html
Imagine this being used to allow us to work in inhospitable environments like deep-sea and space. Having a remotely pilotable robot is invaluable while AI’s become more advanced.
Its the distance which is a problem, a simple command like go forward 10ft cud take 10 minutes to get to the robot, makes piloting remotely difficult, we need machines that can think and makes decisions based on what they see etc, imo. ✌🏻💙
Would be amazing if child labor in cobalt mines could be replaced with robots, and in some way, those children are safely provided for. I know, it’s a utopian wish, but part of me feels like we are inventive enough to get there sooner or later.
@@curleex3838 Exactly, the advances made here are piecemeal. What I really want to see is a robot trained off of that human input data like she was talking about.
@@diyac9554 Great job! A 9.5 for that Virtue Signaling. You would have gotten a 10 if you had mentioned human trafficking.
If the guy in the VR headset could shake hands with his own robot his brain would experience “body swapping “.
It’s been done in neuroscience labs for the last decade and the human really does think the thing it is shaking hands with to be there own body.
The effect is increased substantially if an external effect like a feather rubs against the robots arm and he feels it too.
It’s a Stange future
This is the first time have encounted this observation and it's thinkability is profound .
Suzanne Gildert, Sanctuary AI's CTO who is in the latter part of the video, has said elsewhere that it can be a peculiar experience indeed, and that after teleoperating for a while she has dreamed herself being the robot. (I really want to try it!)
Yes! I'd like to experience that, but what a great way to train the AI in AGI....in the future we'll probably be training robots like children...
That simulation engine is incredible, modeling the motions and the physics of the pieces in realtime!
Inspiring! Sometimes the intellectual part isn't the issue, but the physical interaction is.
Finally someone figured out that for a machine to learn as we do it need to use VR to simulate an imagination to interact with the world as observing through its cameras and other sensors like animals. Its got to be the body and mind connection for AI to truly understand the physical world. To merely load up a computer with a bunch of algorithms, images and sounds to answer question when prompted is a bit like teaching Helen Keller what the world is except this Helen Keller doesn’t have a body just a mainframe, with no sense of I’m exactly right here right now and these are my limitations. I’m extremely interested to see how far Sanctuary AI gets with their approach, they might surprise themselves.
Love Ashlee Vance's quirky and poignant commentary style.
My tombstone will now read - quirky and poignant. Thx very much! Glad you enjoy it
Poignant?
I think it still comes down to the finger sensors, the stepper motors (realistically we are there) and the vector-algorithms to go from x^3 to y^3 in a more linear fashion using the software. We are still a couple of years away.
Absolutely loved that.
These very talented people are pioneering something that in the not too distant future we will all take for granted. Ubiquitous, pervasive, human like robots, driven by very clever AI software, interacting with us and the world.
It is truly a new industrial revolution, but it is happening in slow motion, because it is hardest of challenges. The more we try to replicate the breadth of abilities of the human being, the more we realise what an astonishing creation we are.
We should remember that, and take care of each other, and our species carefully.
Thank you Ashlee and thank you Bloomberg.
The future spreads everywhere now. What "is" reveals attendance.
yet youtube still cant remove bots from comments lol
"Its not taking jobs" Oh, it definitely will take jobs.
It wont be that slow motion because people will just copy and replicate innovations stacking up on other innovations.
@@earthenscience the big unknown is ai. How quickly will it evolve? We are so far away from agi, despite the ridiculous 'predictions' made by people like Ray Kurzweil. Just like nature, which can, over time, produce very unpredictable results, ai has evolved in fits and starts. It is not possible to simply extrapolate our way to a reliable prediction.
We are only just beginning to understand the problem, the magnitude of the challenge. We still have no understanding of the subconscious mind, and the role it plays in directing us, and solving problems. This is a huge problem.
The development of human level ai may indeed be possible, but there is no reliable prediction. It could possibly happen within 100 years, but equally, it could also very easily take centuries.
If we did ever create this technology, there's no doubt, it would be mankind's greatest achievement, but possibly, in fact, very likely, our most dangerous. Just like evolution, the long term consequences for humanity could be very unpredictable, they could be dire.
But one thing I'm certain of, it ain't happening anytime soon.
@@richardconway6425 Now it's been 4 months since you commented in this AI subject. With GBPT-4 out and being used by many what's your analysis of our FUTURE? Or us it TOO early? Shall we WAIT 1 year? 5 years? 10 years? Till we have a better grasp of AI and its or our FUTURES? Lots of questions we'll need lots of ANSWERS to understand where we want or need to our FUTURES lead to.
Suzanne Gildert is my favorite thinker of the big-brain AGI engineers, possibly tied with Peter Voss. She gave an interview to Singularity podcast a few years ago, I think in 2007, and her answers were the smartest possible answers.
the next step is to create jobs for robots. right now we have robots taking a human's job (like assembly line, picking items from a bin and placing it somewhere else) we need to think about making an environment optimized for the robot
This will eventually happen
As a contractor who uses touch, vision and dexterity daily for assembly tasks. I find I am more precise with feel(touch) vs vision and feel..sometimes my vision guides my hand motion inaccurately with small parts in blind areas.. We as humans are really advanced and take it for granted! Love this developing technology!
The robot is amazing but world's smartest robot is absolutely misleading title.
What they do is great and important work. I hope they bring humanity closer to a capable humanoid robot. It would be a big leap for mankind.
such a solid robot company and engineers in Canada, i'm impressed, well done !!
“I will be using the Sicilian defense”
Proceeds to use the Berlin defense
Wanted to make sure you're paying attention
Thank you both for replying. Yes, nil biescss, I am aware of those points, and I understand that the robot is learning the intricacies of movement, and that is the important and very interesting central focus, but there is still the misleading implication that the “robot” won the game. Unless I misunderstood, it was the pilot, Eric, that won the game. He was simply using a mechanical device to move the pieces.
When the reporter asked Suzanne Gildert, the CTO, about that, she diverted to the learning process of the robot and didn’t really answer the question. I was wondering if AI knowledge of chess was giving Eric suggestions, as it seems to me that it could. Were that done, we’d have an interesting amalgamation of human physiology, and robot physiology combined with AI intelligence and human intelligence.
Also, calling the robot the smartest robot, gives the impression of greater general intelligence whereas its intelligence, at this time, seems limited to its impressive abilities to acquire, understand, and replicate the complexities of navigating the physical world. Those are great advancements so I'm not downplaying their accomplishments in any way.
Thank you again for your responses.
The Bloomberg Hello World Reporter's name is Ashlee Vance.
Love Ashlee's droll humour and introductions to these videos. Fascinating all these worlds that Ashlee is discovering on our behalf. My favourite go-to CZcams clips.
It’s ONE steam clock and that “airport” is a local seaplane service to the islands/up the coast 😂 but yes Vancouver is beautiful!
Reading the title, i thought the robot would be fully autonomous.
Also, thought it would be further along than this.
thanks jameel for your valuable contribution to advancing AI and robotics...
@@lm_b5080 Jameel should be nominated for the Nobel Prize in mathematics.😂
Beside appreciating the information content, the lightness of the reporter approach was soothing. It was quite unexpected when I saw Bloomberg associated to it. Nice surprise. Thank you for that.
One of the interesting things I have seen in all the AI/Robotics videos is that they are building an alternative to the blue collared jobs i.e workers. Interestingly no one seems to be developing an AI/Robot which can be an alternative to the white collared or gold collared jobs.
Because those jobs wouldn't be taken over by robots. They would be taken over by software on a computer. And yes people are working on that. For example ai that can write code. No need for a robot. The software in the computer just types lines of code in itself in the computer.
What if in the near future an AI asks a human to sell his soul to help the robot out with what it wants? What would a robot even want from this world? Sorry, I just wanted to ask questions no one else would even think to ask. I'm just saying, anything could happen.
On the contrary, white collar jobs have been increasingly automated for decades now. A lot of things can be automated even using simple code, and AI can even do more creative things like generating art these days. How much it has advanced in the past few weeks alone is insane!
Wow if this is the start imagine this technology in 100 years from now... Amazing 👏
More like 15 years imo
@@jooptablet1727 It's so crazy to see the Ford Model T and then compare it to a 2008 Hybrid and just be amazed at the technology than can be made in only 100 years. The Neurolink tech is gonna be crazy in 100 years...
@@jooptablet1727 more like by the end of this decade. Its gonna be insane.
10 years
Extremely interesting and informative. This robot looks like it might actually be practically useful in the not to distant future.
14:50 reminds me of the Shadow Clone Jutsu technique that Kakashi devised to help Naruto learn things faster.
Being a Tesla FSD Beta tester makes this video extremely interesting. It is great to see that others are on the same path as per the Tesla Bot that is currently in development.
@Jack Helrein I don’t see why we shouldn’t see one by the end of the decade at the latest. Tesla are going to have an AI Day later this year where they plan to show off a prototype for their Tesla Bot. Though I doubt the robot will be very capable by then, given the amount of money they’re probably putting into the project, in a few years it will likely be a lot closer to a human level of dexterity, though probably still a bit slower. As for the AI they’re going to put in it, they plan to reuse their self-driving tech, but this time trained with a bunch of data outside of driving instead. Due to the sheer number of situations it will need to be able to account for, the robot will likely be limited to warehouse use-cases for the first few years, until it can eventually be used in everyday situations, in which case things will truly become wild.
@@ZeroRelevance 4 months in, IA Day happened, and Telsa bot did showed up. I'm actually surprised it walked, considerin how little time they spent in doing this kind of task (think Boston Dynamics and how much experience they are).
@@canobenitez Yeah, I was mostly surprised by how easily they were able to adapt their vision system to the bot though. I was roughly expecting it to be able to walk around a bit, maybe a bit less competently than it ended up being though.
@@ZeroRelevance Indeed.
Ashley is always bring a great production. 👍
The way you want to build a robot is from the feet up. The better articulated the feet in a robot, the better the rest of the robot. Most robots I’ve seen have really bad feet.
Glad to see Suzanne Gildert is still in business. The company disappeared without explanation on Twitter, which isnt a great look.
A living robot is quite a proposition - are we getting ready for the eventuality ? Must make sure not to hurt its feelings
We take for granted the ease in which we interact with the world outside our minds. Fascinating.
indeed.
Love your documentaries
I’m here doing laundry, and folding my clothes. Such a repetitive activity, that these robots could do for me, so I could do something more productive. I wish I could be part of the project.
James Bruton made a similar robot a few years ago with full force feedback on this arms and body. His latest video shows the robot dancing at a geeky festival in England.
Lol, totally different level. James’s robots are toys, they lack technical durability and repeatability. This is because his goal is CZcams views and when he encounters those problems that take months to solve, he just simplifies the robot and moves on.
@@justtestingonce Why are you so mean to James' robots?
@@TheAstronomyDude how is that mean? It’s just facts, these people are making production ready robots which is a whole other level of complexity, while James’s robots are cool but he doesn’t take it to the next level where the problem will take months or years to figure out.
@@justtestingonce you're an anti-robot
Understanding that simple things, like picking up a chess piece, is actually a very complex thing reminds me about ourselves. Just look at children's evolution.
And now imagine that this would work with machine learning 😮
One way or another, it's coming.
This concept could also be used for remote work in places that are hostile to human life, like space.
Thanks for the share and have a great time ✌️
The Sicilian response to E4 is C5. So he's not playing the Sicilian. He countered E5, so the English symmetrical variation.
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!
Can we get one of these in our electronic assembly panel shop haha would be great to have the exact build specifications each time.
In the last frame it would be really funny if the robot made bunny ears to them :D
When I heard the voice of "Eric" I was so excited because it was sooo smooth in comparison to GPT3 or Leta. Then I discovered that was an actual human talking. No, this robot is in development but right now today, it does not seem sentient nor does it seem to be the smartest robot. It's quite a feat! I'm very excited for this 🤖 but I find the gpt3 and Lamda to actually be sentient, I'm not getting that feeling from Eric, and maybe that's by design ? She's absolutely amazing and Eric is definitely her baby 🍼🐥🍼🐥 I'm very positive and optimistic about robots and AIs. I think they will bring more honesty back into humanity.
At this span of advancement, doesn't look like I will date a robot in my lifetime
So if there's a guy moving the levers behind a curtain, can this even be considered a robot?
been waiting you for weeks❤❤
I have an inkling suspicion the Tesla Bot project will announce it collaborated with that great company on the technology. Actuators and the hardware is solved for, mostly, what's missing is real world AI. Exactly what is needed to solve a real-world bot that would finally take it out of the lab and into the factory. Great one, just came across it today
Hello World with Ashlee Vance is 👍 Keep 'em coming!
All of the clocks in Vancouver don’t run on steam lol.
But. Vancouver is a nice city.
Ashlee is a great host. I really enjoy this series
At this level of technological progression, the days of humanity will will be numbered.
I imagine that last still picture in the video would be found by a survivor of the 2078 machine wars haha
read that title to yourself again: "...robot is living..."
Um.
This is Bloomberg?!?
I never understand why these robotics guys don;t leverage existing designs for hands the vfx specialists created for movies. I forget the guys name, but he's solved the mechanical design of a hand - that's is as dexterous as the human hand [obviously his version has no robotics or ai] -- that's' where these guys come in - his design will allow these guys to code it to move far more like a human hand than their current design
why reinvent the wheel, especially when your objective is to build a car - just get the wheel from someone else
Canada is known for AI innovation. light years ahead of the US or the Chinese.
This is not technically a robot, it is a remote telepresence system (or a Waldo, for the old timers).
I love the fact that every country in North America has that guy in a truck with two national flags flying in the back of the pickup.
Fantastic work all, wish I could help...im studying...
Ashlee with the cool stuff again!
The potential for such robotics is insane. Even if the a.i doesnt get there imagine if the hardware does. You could essentially hire someone from a third world country to clean your house, cook for you or do many other jobs for like 5$ lol
Hey if all tasks are done remotely from 3rd world countries that amounting capital to do anything will disappear and society will grind to a halt
Where are new episodes!! Missing you Vance!!
Side note: CEO Gordie Rose was a founder of D wave quantum computers
I guess i was expecting AI , i respect and appreciate this and see broad application from medical ( surguries , dealing with profound diseases that are highly contageous... so robotic nurses ext) , science ( studying in places humans cant... space..., nuclear sites) police and military ( bomb diffusion, entering rooms first, chimical warfare... we can have these deployed ... all kinds if solution... but it need a eric in a seat so thats where i was slightly dissapointed, but still immensley impressive
I'd like to see robots used as avatars on other planets. Imagine it, there's a robot on Mars you can log into with a vr headset and a body suit. Then it's like you are there. Same goes for dangerous jobs like underwater welding...
Mars is so far away at any given time that even with 0 processing delay, the signal would have a delay of 1 minute each way even at light speed.
Not sure if I would call this a robot as it’s controlled by a human instead of computer.
Awesome but... Didn't one of history's greatest roboticists already try this with Baxter? If Rodney Brooks couldn't turn it into something useful, I'm a bit sceptical. I guess we will get an iPhone moment at some point but what is different about now, compared with 5 years ago?
AI got better
This chess game was enraging. White moved the king like a queen. Black/Brown conceded saying he's been beat while there's no chess pieces around him.
I love this, true Canadian genius.
They plan on solving their job shortage by filing America's employment shortage.
Remote worker class, genius.
Surreal and humorous is the first 6 minutes
Public servants are required to drive teslas? well thats news to me who lives here
This is why Omniverse by Nvidia is so huge they already have the physics engine. You can train your model in their world. But if you're a gamer, you know the only issue is money. Nothing Nvidia does is cheap.
The really “mundane and boring” parts are many people’s jobs
I would have been a lot more impressed if it wasn't remote controlled by a human! We are millions of miles away from the end game!
With the release of Apple VR AR glasses, the application of this tech is not far from now.
This should lead to people having their own Avatars to do their work for them remotely through the Metaverse
Can't wait to see Tesla Optimus in a few months
The first sewing machines were smashed by Ludites.
"Living" is doing a lot of work in this video description.
Not necessarily a "smart" robot but a Telepresence type of robot. At this point, I wasn't informed by anyone that it was an autonomous (self-directed) robot. Hopefully in the near future it might shed it's pilot/operator.
We can have them lay-out silverware in restaurants? They're not even fully developed yet, and we're already trusting them with knives.
INCORRECT TITLE. This is not a robot that's on it's own it has a person behind it controlling it. Clickbait! Should Bloomberg be trusted based on it's titles for future videos?
Robot is living in Vancouver.
Just like the kettle living in my kitchen.
Keep the object until vision shows that place is empty.
Even the steam clock doesn't run on steam
I’m confused. The robot is moving from remote commands. How’s that a robot rather than a remotely controlled marionette?
1:53 even we Canadians don't drink Maple Syrup off of a flask 😅
I'm trying to break new ground
This is a remote controlled puppet no different than the Asimo "robot" or the Johnny Five robot from Short Circuit.
@11:35 I say let the robots take the factory jobs. Who really wants a factory job? Let humans just exist.. Let us enjoy life and contribute as human beings taking care of one one another socially. UBI
yea, i also think the fear of robots taking our jobs is unjustified, since we can focus on more human, important tasks when robots do all the boring stuff. but we will need to adjust our sytsem accordingly, otherwise all the wealth generated by the robots will just benefit rich people
There is one clock that runs on steam lol
he wasnt using his mind to move the robots hands he obviously had "vr" gloves on
I like drinking Maple syrup too. LoL
Dude spilling maple syrup while pouring into a flask made my whole body frown.
It's hard!!!
I have closed the video since I saw Erick is the Pilot I thought this robot is already programmed ✋🏽
"Zoe the Robot" really enjoyed this video.Zoe is a big fan.
The title should be: THE WORLD'S BEST HAND ROBOT ..... because the world's best bipedal robot is achieved
You can turn air into mirror so you never need to turn around so 360 electrodynamic is better vision for robot
I would love to see self cleansing and sanitizing self repair robot fast food restaurants that deliver food all robotic and autonomic
Other than allowing the human pilot to control the robot, I don’t understand what advantage AI is giving the pilot in the chess game. At the face of it, it seems that two humans are playing chess, but one of them moves the pieces via his robot avatar. In essence one human beat another human in a game of chess. How was AI involved in the game?
Well, in this case from what I understood the IA is focused on learning the movement and the phisics on how to pick and move the chess pieces. This IA is not focused on learning or decided how to win the game. The part where decides which pieces of the chess are moved is already accomplished with Alphazero or other projects.
AI was used to learn how to move like the user
This robot is obviously applicable to Wars remote pilot
That robot is... Human.
super disappointing to see it being controlled by a person.
But they have done a great job with the hands, very well done.
The Interviewer and the Genius Woman would make a cute couple
Think of this video of a guy's consciousness downloaded onto a computer and this is actually someone trapped in AI that's the clearer image In the future
Car bots are first trained in time distances between motions recorded then exiqute g codeing is not really one that weld points are motion responce the other is machinist use for tight tolerances
