Amazon’s New Robots Are Rolling Out an Automation Revolution | WIRED

By

In a giant warehouse in Reading, Massachusetts, I meet a pair of robots that look like goofy green footstools from the future. Their round eyes and satisfied grins are rendered with light emitting diodes. They sport small lidar sensors like tiny hats that scan nearby objects and people in 3D.

Hi. Since I graduated from college, I've been trying to find cool new interesting things to do. Creating special effects wins as my favorite.

REASON GONE MAD: Planets, planets, everywhere! - The Berkshire Edge

Last week, NASA announced that it passed 5,000 planets confirmed to exist outside our humble little solar system. Thanks to current and future space telescopes, the number of these so-called "exoplanets" is climbing fast, though it may take just a wee bit longer to identify all the estimated hundreds of billions of planets that are orbiting stars just here in our Milky Way — itself an average-sized ...

At times the other planets bunch up tight as seen from here, in angles close to the Sun. Publisher: Pocono Record Reference: (Read more) Visit Sourc...

Sometimes half measures can be a good thing – especially on a journey this long. The agency's latest rover only has about 146 million miles left to reach its destination. NASA's Mars 2020 Perseverance rover mission has logged a lot of flight miles since being lofted skyward on July 30 – 146.3 million miles (235.4 million kilometers) to be exact. Turns out that is exactly the same distance it has to go before the spacecraft hits the Red Planet's atmosphere like a 11,900 mph (19,000 kph) freight train on Feb. 18, 2021.

Reference: Found here Headlines: There have been warnings for decades that robots could replace people working in manufacturing and agriculture. More recently, concerns have grown that artificial intelligence (AI) could do the same with some white-collar jobs. The use of robots has been growing, with 3.9 million of them ⁘operational⁘ in manufacturing around the world - 151 per 10,000 employees, double what it was 6 years ago - according to the International Federation of Robotics. The number could keep rising if enough AI-powered ⁘humanoid⁘ robots are produced, according to investment bank Morgan Stanley, which speculated that ⁘converging trends⁘ could see large language m...
