A Business
article describes the current split among robot researchers on what
the immediate future holds for robots. Some, such as the Japanse, are
working quickly toward general-purpose, humanoid robots while American
companies
are tending towards specialized, single-function robots such as vacuum
cleaners and lawn mowers. But while the two groups disagree on form and
function, they both believe robots need more human-like intelligence to
succeed in a human world.
any one who had seen this movie may be thinking.. ack, what a waste of
film. i personally liked the movie. in a flashback scene, the old man
who made edward got the idea for him by holding a cookie up to a
robotic cuisineart. he then started work building edward. before he
was finished, he sat and read a book of etiquette to him. all he did
was twich, i'm assuming because he had not been programmed fully or
learned to move yet, much like a child or robot. i really want a robot
that already knows a few things, that i can teach more. start of with
simple things and hopefully it will be intelligent enough to
understand simple sentence instructions. HMHY
