A Roadmap for US Robotics - From Internet to Robotics 2020 Edition
This paper is a summary of the main societal opportunities identified, the associated challenges to deliver desired solutions and a presentation of efforts to be undertaken to ensure that US will continue to be a leader in robotics both in terms of research innovation, adoption of the latest technology and adoption of appropriate policy frameworks.
Good Robot, Bad Robot
This book explores how robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) can enhance human lives but also have unsettling “dark sides.” It examines expanding forms of negativity and anxiety about robots, AI, and autonomous vehicles as our human environments are reengineered for intelligent military and security systems and for optimal workplace and domestic operations. It focuses on the impacts of initiatives to make robot interactions more humanlike and less creepy (as with domestic and sex robots). It analyzes the emerging resistances against these entities in the wake of omnipresent AI applications (such as “killer robots” and ubiquitous surveillance). It unpacks efforts by developers to have ethical and social influences on robotics and AI, and confronts the AI hype that is designed to shield the entities from criticism. The book draws from science fiction, dramaturgical, ethical, and legal literatures as well as current research agendas of corporations. Engineers, implementers, and researchers have often encountered users' fears and aggressive actions against intelligent entities, especially in the wake of deaths of humans by robots and autonomous vehicles. The book is an invaluable resource for developers and researchers in the field, as well as curious readers who want to play proactive roles in shaping future technologies.
A Startup Field Guide in the Age of Robots and AI
Launching a startup is like climbing a mountain, just maybe more treacherous. I say this as I have spent years as a backpacker and entrepreneur. While hiking through the Alaskan Tundra, I feared brown bears and crevasses. Yet, nothing prepared me for the responsibility of payroll for over 200 families relying on my business plan to feed their children. Unlike traditional software, the mere smell of hardware sensors and robot gearing sends shivers through most investors, with red flags arising from the perceived capital inefficiencies and intense research and development. This is coupled with a high talent requirement before launching even a minimum viable product, as these inventions demand a cross-section of skills: mechanical, electrical, and software engineering. To set out on the trail of uncrewed success, machine inventors and founders require a detailed field guide to meet customer demand and financing objectives. My goal for this book is to help you at a pivotal point in your ideation process and, at the same time, introduce you to a cadre of potential mentors. Through interviews with some of the most respected luminaries in this field, I aim to help fortify your resolve to follow your passions and build a billion-dollar company. The chapters of this book have been organized like a field guide, as if you are setting out on a trip in the wild. Just like it’s essential to satiate yourself before scaling mountains, fast-tracking your innovation into the hands of early adopters is vital for achieving success on Main Street.
