Ai Bot & Robot Dog That Can Open a Door With Its Jaw

If you thought the plot from “The Terminator” was troubling, a new video from Boston Dynamics of a robot dog may make you do a double-take. If that doesn’t scare you, how about the robodog fighting back when a human tries to attack it? In the video below, a human uses a hockey stick and a leash to try and stop the robot from opening a door.

For some, a video like the one above showing the impressive movements of another Boston Dynamics’ robot named Atlas may signal the final days for humanity’s reign. In reality, the new robotics technology is intended to help perform pragmatic tasks for businesses and people in the future. (Well, the door opening part, not the backflip.)

Social media users were quick to point out that the robot dog also has similar traits of a creature from the “Metalhead” episode of the show “Black Mirror.” In fact, the creator of the show said his creature was based off a video he saw from Boston Dynamics. Full Story

Ai Bot and the Chat craze

Mitsuku

This Ai Bot is one the best AI chatbots and it’s my favourite too. Evidently it is the current winner of Loebner Prize. The Loebner Prize is an annual competition in artificial intelligence that awards prizes to the chatterbot considered by the judges to be the most human-like. The format of the competition is that of a standard Turing test. You can talk with Mitsuku for hours without getting bored. It replies to your question in the most humane way and understands your mood with the language you’re using.

Rose

Rose is a chatbot, and a very good one — she won recognition this past Saturday as the most human-like chatbot in a competition described as the first Turing test, the Loebner Prize in 2014 and 2015. Full Story
