Robots, Androids, and AI’s By Fernando Mojica Introduction Not so long ago, androids, robots, and AIs were only fantasy inventions that could only be found in science fiction movies and comic books. But these days, technological innovation is progressing at a breakneck pace, bringing these entities composed of nuts, bolts, cables, and microchips closer and closer. Now I will show you a little bit of these great inventions. What is a Robot? A robot is a programmable machine capable of performing various functions or complex tasks, manipulating objects, and automatically performing operations, including different types of movements, in response to its environment. Robot’s Characteristics • Movement • Information capture • Autonomy • Degrees of freedom • Energy What is an Android? Android is the term used to refer to those robots that imitate, to a certain extent, the appearance and behavior of humans. Therefore, not all robots can be considered androids. Android’s Characteristics • Dexterity • Mimic human conduct • Independence • Helpful for theories • Disguised people • Most are bipedal What is AI? Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the combination of algorithms proposed with the purpose of creating machines that have the same capabilities as the human being. A technology that is still distant and mysterious to us, but that for a few years has been present in our day to day at all hours. AI’s Characteristics • Planning • Imprecise knowledge • Reasoning • Communication • Perception • Symbolic Processing • Non-algorithmic Processing Some Movies and Videogames about this topic that I recommend :) I, Robot (2004) Ex-Machina (2014) Detroit: Become Human (2018) Blade Runner (1982) 2001: A space odyssey (1968) 9 Thanks for paying attention!!!!
