Robots Making Robots - What Else Can Go Wrong?

  • Now we will have robots making robots.  Leave aside the Terminator Hunter Killers for a moment.  Just imagine the massive unemployment and extreme poverty that is coming in a future where only robots have jobs.


Scientists say they have developed a low-cost robot prototype made from paper and children's trinkets that can assemble itself and perform a task without human help.


The technology could eventually lead to affordable 'robotic helpers' for use in everything from household chores to exploring space, according to the team of Harvard and Massachusetts Institute of Technology engineers who developed it.

"Getting a robot to assemble itself autonomously and actually perform a function has been a milestone we've been chasing for many years," said Rob Wood of Harvard's School of Engineering and Applied Sciences.

The prototype was jointly announced by Harvard and MIT reports Reuters News.

"You would be able to come in, describe what you need in fairly basic terms, and come back an hour later to get your robotic helper," Wood said.

They could also be used in space.

"Imagine a ream of dozens of robotic satellites sandwiched together so that they could be sent up to space and then assemble themselves remotely once they get there," said Sam Felton, a Harvard Ph. D student who co-authored the research. "They could take images, collect data, and more."

[to the head of USR]  "Um, look, this isn't what I do, but I've got an idea for one of your commercials. You see... a carpenter, making a beautiful chair. And then one of your robots comes in and makes a better chair twice as fast. And then you superimpose on the screen, "USR: Shittin' on the Little Guy". That would be the fade-out."
