The gap between voice commands and autonomous robotics has been vast. We went to Google's robotics labs to see how that's set to change in the near future.

The word “trust” pops up a lot in conversations about human-robot interactions. In recent years, it’s crossed an important threshold from the philosophical fodder of sci-fi novels into real ...

With demos, robots can’t really apply lessons to other situations or environments, and with motion-planning methods, the teaching is time consuming and labor intensive.

Teaching a robot how to do something is usually done by either programming it to perform a specific task, or demonstrating that task for the robot to observe and imitate. The latter method ...

As well as teaching the robot how to fulfill whatever task they’re being sent out to do, there’s an added layer of complexity offered up by the many intricacies of human-robot interaction.

Agtech founders and VC backers talk whether automated robots are stealing jobs, plus the challenges of building AI and getting VC funding. Training an AI program is like training a three year old ...

The new robot can learn from a demonstration and teach other robots what it knows.

Even for robots, practice makes perfect. At least that's how it works for the technique developed by Brown University assistant professor Stefanie Tellex, which teaches robots how to pick up ...

Robots are now learning from each other, even tasks that haven't been programmed--a sign that they could soon take on bigger jobs. A demo conducted this morning shows how it works.

Researchers in Europe and Turkey are working to develop teaching machines that help preschool-aged kids learn a new language.
