The robot revolution is on. There seems to be conflicting views on where AI thought is at. It could also be that it's just a matter of the different thought patters that are required to perform each task. How long before robots can think like us? This summer, a computer almost passed the Turing intelligence test. Dan Falk examines the narrowing gap between humans and machines. www.telegraph.co.uk/science/science-news/9489002/How-long-before-robots-can-think-like-us.htmlHow Many Computers to Identify a Cat? 16,000 www.nytimes.com/2012/06/26/technology/in-a-big-network-of-computers-evidence-of-machine-learning.html?pagewanted=allThey can beat us at sports though. ;D Sorry, Usain — This Robot Can Now Run Faster Than You mashable.com/2012/09/05/robot-faster-usain-bolt/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+mashable%2Fblackberry+%28Mashable+News+for+BlackBerry+%29Hockey robot tops fftimes.com/node/252461They can work better than we can.

This is why ultimately I believe that robots will help humans have a better life and not replace us. 70% of the economy is made up of consumer spending in the West, China has to move this way to sustain their growth just like India and everywhere else. When this happens, the robots will help us all service our own economies. These Robots Can Help Disabled Officers, Veterans Get Back to Work

Continuing on where we left off in 2012... The Robots are Coming!! Globalization of the manufacturing industry has helped push the industrial revolution that started in the west around the world. Dangerous factory work in the early 1900's helped create a prosperous middle class that could afford the vehicles they were producing. This gave birth to the service industry that employs close to 90% of the western population today. This exact cycle is happening all over Asia, and for the first time in history the service industry in Asia has become the biggest part of the economy in 2013. High end luxury brands from clothing to cars are enjoying robust sales all throughout Asia. The median income has been rising at double digits for years, which means that the low wages that brought manufacturing to Asia, and China in particular, have been evaporating. This trend has been the catalyst for a new cycle. One that has started slow, but is assured to grow as more and more people around the globe rise out of poverty and look for opportunities at home, instead of immigrating to the west for a better life. The new trend is robotics. Most are all familiar with robotics on the production line, however, in recent years the rise of the service robot has been growing slowly and silently. Today, there are robots that can make perfect hamburgers, Google and GM are in the process of developing automated cars that they are hoping will be on the road by 2020, Amazon is using robots in their distribution centers, and there are various companies developing robots that can be used in the medical field. You might be thinking, how is this a good thing? Won't the robots eventually take all of our jobs? The same questions were being asked in the 1800s when the industrial revolution first began. Power looms, the telegraph machine, and automobiles were all going to make human beings obsolete. What happened is new industries came along and provided more opportunities and a better standard of living. These same opportunities are presenting themselves today for savvy investors and business people who embrace change and the future. Accepting changes and finding opportunities working with new technology has been the trait of good investors and business people since the invention of the wheel.

A++++, Eric is working of an advanced robotic control the Reactor system for the reactor that will produce the biological agent needed to recharge old oil wells for the MEOR test. Now for the design needs to make 10,000 litters q 24 hours. I hope to see the size of this reactor and about 1,000,000,000 worms. I have separated my two worm populations so an now testing to see if the E. Fetida works better then the E. Hortensis or a mix as Fetida like the top and Hortensis like it deep. The IA64 system work well with and the HP 486 long distance server systems communication line will travel the one mile distance from the Ranch House to the well/lab/reactors. Now for 20 tons of leaf litter. Yes I need your bull.
Just a thought, BiMetalAuPt

That's good the bull will help pay for my PhD in robotics down the road... Are you using the IA64 because you have it kicking around? Best part is that you can remotely access the ranch house from Manhattan or the moon - once it has WiFi. That is going to be one huge reactor... World record for largest compost bin? I found a biogas consultant company out of Ontario that was started by a couple of Swiss. They have ag and municipal projects under their belt... Looks like I will be needing that bull as well as them towns organic waste. God bless,

The concept that robots are going to steal jobs and take over the human race is firmly rooted in science fiction - and fiction is exactly what that line of thinking is. In reality robots won't steal jobs, they will be part of the solution to structural issues that some think are a huge problem right now; the first being the aging population. Robots will fill many of the jobs that are projected to be vacant due to an aging workforce over the next 20 years, the current generation of robots clearly demonstrate that - just think about 20 years from now. Another big issue that robots will help fix as they become more mainstream is fiscal deficits. Because we will be making as much with less there will be more money in the system, which will prevent massive failures in programs like social security. In reality, it's looking like robots will be the furthest thing from job stealers. In fact, it is starting to look like they will be the glue that ends up holding the global economy together over the long term. The harsh reality of our history is that the greatest leaps in our advancement have been when there were large pools of cheap labour to draw on, freeing up "the ones on top" to put their energy and money towards huge projects. For the first time in history we are operating as a true global unit and the vast pool of cheap labour needed to propel this aging debt filled society past the outcome of our ancestors isn't other human beings. They are creations of technology, brought to you by industry that was funded by the love not war business model, which was put into action a couple thousands years ago by the Messiah. All to correct the 20,000+ years of war lead economic development of our past, filled with the unspeakable things that still echo through to today. Yes, we humans seem to be slow learners.

A++++, Eric and I were talking about the robotic distribution system in the last hospital I worked in. It took 200% more labor to package and load the robot then do the job by hand. As the year went on there was more and more drugs packaged for the system but we were ready to remove it by the time the contract closed. Too little too late!!!

You just can't beat the personal service you get with a Human. But you would save a lot of money in tipping them. LOL

There will still be tippin', no worries there. As an employer though you'll be able to operate with only your key employees, which makes you more money, haha.

Most tech in the early stages usually does, . Five years ago a 3d printed house was a fantasy, and 15 from now it will be mainstream.. If all you want is an automated beer, I can get ya that right now. Revenue Up 78% Hope you're having a great weekend! MCK has been doing OK... Just a thought, as you would say.

Just a thought, as you would say. +++, To make a long story short: The robot was replaced with a better inventory control system with a larger storage system. The new system worked great until the over weighted storage units crashed. Reason for failure were never satiated to us but the whole system strengthened. I thought the floor shifted as it was only a floating cement floor built in the1920's. This could have also been the robots problem.

, That is a great point. Older buildings are going to have a hard time retrofitting. I think older places will benefit more from things like ectoskeletons that help patients move, reducing nurses work loads, and telepresence robots like iRobot has right now that will help doctors be in more places at once. God bless.

Sounds like there is a new building in the near future there. As always, new technology spread across the cost of the building always looks better than on its own.
