The Robot Millennial
Robert H. Chen, Chelsea Chen · 2022
Our modern robot can see and recognize objects and read text by computer vision, hear and understand by speech recognition, and speak synthetically, all the while improving at every facet of these activities through reinforced and self-supervised learning, just like a clever human being. Today&s;s robot is more than clever, it has lightning-fast logical and computational ability with an infallible memory of voluminous knowledge far surpassing any human being. Robot disputes will be adjudicated and settled by robot lawyers and there will be no need for biological physicians to care for the robots, but more mechanical and electrical engineers may be needed to service the robots; that is, until they learn to service themselves. The robot scientist&s;s ability will improve through 24/7 supervised learning from ever-increasing data, reinforcement learning, and self-supervised refinement of research technique. The robot scientist will evolve to become a diligent, tireless, hard-working machine whose diligence surpasses that of any human scientist.
