Hello dear friends who love technology, artificial intelligence and robotics; Some writers are writing about the acceleration of the technological age, the speed with which innovations are emerging in all known branches of technology.
The advances do not cease to surprise us, and when we think we have seen everything, something new emerges that surpasses what we know or simply complements what exists.
Technological advances proliferate everywhere and today it is relatively easy to access information about new devices that appear.
Researchers at the University of Liverpool developed the first robot capable of autonomously conducting experiments in a laboratory, the super researcher has already discovered a new catalyst and has the ability to use laboratory instruments as a person does.
The new scientific robot is equipped with a system similar to that used in autonomous cars, this allows it to "navigate" independently in the laboratory using previously established coordinates.
Unlike a human researcher, this super scientist can work more than 21 continuous hours, stopping only as long as necessary to recharge his batteries.
"He has infinite patience, can think in 10 dimensions and works for 21.5 hours every day, with a pause only to recharge his batteries," say the creators of the robot.
The robot has a weight of 400 kilos and human dimensions 1.75 meters, it moves autonomously and performed all the tasks of the experiment carried out without the intervention of its developers: It completed 6,500 manipulations in 688 experiments carried out, this represented 172 hours of work and traveled 2.17 kilometers.
Will we be witnessing the birth of a new generation of researchers that will accelerate scientific discoveries in the future? It is possible! ... But while we check the efficiency and effectiveness of this scientific robot, the world continues with its accelerated march trying to generate technological creations that facilitate our tasks and help human beings in their daily tasks.
A technological development seems to lead to another discovery, this makes science go faster and faster and one does not know whether to rejoice or worry about all these new autonomous creations.
The truth of all this is that the arrival of artificial intelligence, advances in robotics and autonomous devices open up a world of unimaginable possibilities a few years ago.
