Robots Among Us

100 YEARS AGO ROBOT WAS INTRODUCED, fictions: NASA 1990, Robot Selfie taken in Space. Where are the robots?

Seeking Creative Machines

Machine Creativity: AI can analyzed by using data for decisions, Weather prediction, AI loooks on data that converge

Data analytics: Predict behavior and buy behavior

Cars and Sensors in realtime – To turn or not

INTELLIGENCE as Divergent Thinking: Innovation and creativity

How to foster creativity – thinking out of the box, curiosity

AI : focus on Analysis NOT on Synthesis = Creation of new Staff

Formal process of design is difficult

Inspiration: Human create ideas – hard to understand HOW to innovate

Mother of Creators: EVOLUTION in Nature: divergent, selection, differentiation,

ROBOTICS of TODAY:

• designed by people
• mimic the breeding method Physics Simulator: Create cross creedings and selection of the best performing robots
• Google: Soft robot evolution
• Breed SW – 2D manufacturing
• Random shapes; 3 MILLION OF FORMS created by computer SW from interactions wiht Human, people eliminated paterns and computer learned from these selections
• Creativity in the Arts: Can a Robot paint???  Robort paint 90% better than most human, impressionist comes out the best. Oil on Canvas
• Robot takes away Manual Labor of Human
• Lawyer, MDs – a need to combine the robot and the humans

Interview: by David Rotman @MIT Tech Review

• Impact of Robotics impact on Job distruction
• Develop technologies to improve life yet create more jobs
• what advances in Creative Machines is to be worry about?

Hod Lipson

• within 100 years people will live in an age when Computer will become creative and productive — WHAT will people do if Machines are doing better than Humans?
• AI to make machines more creative: Scale capability od Humans
• focus of AUGMENTATION not REPLACEMENT
• How do we restructure the economy: Wealth, meaning and accomplishment in other spheres than JOBS

From the Audience: Economic Policy to Trickle UP economy

Lipson: Human competition on creativity vs part take in the economy’s opportunities

• solutions needed by Economic Policies
• Self replication occurred if no purpose was given to Robots
