Sixteen years ago, the dream was ‘a robot in every home.’ Today, with remarkable advances in Artificial Intelligence, humanoid robots, and autonomous vehicles, that vision feels closer than ever.
Robots now sense, understand, and reason about their surroundings better than ever before. In the USA, robot cars complete hundreds of thousands of rides for paying customers every week. Humanoid robots can jump, flip, and even (slowly) attempt the dishes. But what does it take to integrate robots into society in ways that truly help rather than hinder? What pitfalls must we avoid? And what might a world with billions of robots in homes and workplaces actually look like?
Join Dr Sue Keay and Professor Michael Milford for a deep dive into this fascinating field as they explore the future of robotics and tackle your burning questions at QUT’s flagship event connecting you to prominent thought leaders and ground-breaking research. This session will be moderated by Professor Marek Kowalkiewicz
