Episode 203 – Robotic Monks

After a quick vacation week Michael R. brings a meditative view back to the show with a Robotic Monk designed to welcome young visitors to temples in China. He then takes us deep on synthetics and their new religious beliefs as shown on the TV Show Humans. We then look at new robots from MIT that can walk, run, and climb stairs that are littered with debris – all with out any visual inputs. And we wrap the show with a bit of a discussion around the addictive behavior of games.
