🤖 AI Trains Miniature Robots to Play Football

British scientists have pushed the envelope in robotics by enabling tiny humanoid robots—just knee-high to a person—to play football. These mini-athletes are powered by deep reinforcement learning, a cutting-edge AI technology that assimilates vast amounts of football simulation data to equip the robots with versatile in-game tactics.

These robots can autonomously choose tactics, dynamically adapt to game situations, and even fiercely compete for the ball. While currently limited to one-on-one matches, their movement speed, turning, and ball-striking have surpassed initial expectations. They’ve also achieved smoother, more precise movements and can automatically determine their tactics almost as quickly as live players do, blocking shots and standing up after falls.

Stay tuned for the next generation of robotic athletes! 🚀

Boston Dynamics has introduced the new generation of Atlas robots. Yes, this is the same robot known for performing parkour and being constantly kicked.

The new model, developed in partnership with Hyundai, will be employed in their car manufacturing plants.

And you said robots wouldn't take our jobs.

Meta, led by CEO Mark Zuckerberg, is advancing its technology to create wearable devices that can interpret brain signals for controlling digital tools. Unlike similar technologies like Elon Musk’s Neuralink, which require surgical implantation, Meta’s devices are non-invasive and worn on the wrist. These devices utilize electromyography (EMG) to translate neural signals into commands for other devices. This innovative approach, currently in internal testing at Meta, aims to eventually integrate with augmented reality platforms like Meta’s Ray-Ban smart glasses to enhance digital interactions through sophisticated, multi-modal AI technologies. This marks a significant step in bridging the gap between human cognitive functions and machine operations, potentially transforming how we interact with our digital environments.
