 A review of ten conscious robots? Is this correct? Yes, but we are talking about classic TV robots, of course...
A review of most popular commercial conscious robots would be a nice post for this website, but I am afraid this is about science-fiction robots. Computer(Science)Schools.net have recently published a review of 10 classic robots, such as the human-like Cylons (right picture) of Battlestar Galactica. How far are we from developing robots like these ones? This is really difficult to know, the singularity might be closer than we think, or it might never happen. One thing is for sure, the research on Machine Consciousness should provide us with some partial answers to these questions in the near-term.
In the meantime, we can also get some inspiration from science-fiction: see these 10 Classic TV Robots. Be first to comment this article | Add as favourites (143) | Quote this article on your site | Views: 1069 |
