THE AGE OF ROBOTS -- "Robots of various stripes seem to be popping, whirring, buzzing, and gliding up just about everywhere. Very practical-minded bots are at work in the real world right now, exploring distant planets, assisting with precision surgery, and locating deadly land mines....And labs around the world are busily working on the robotic parts--feet and knees for walking, hands for grasping, versions of eyes and ears--that will someday be stitched together into a fully functional humanoid robot." (U.S. NEWS & WORLD REPORT) This article examines the technological advancements being made toward the development of an autonomous robot. ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ISN'T JUST A MOVIE -- "Artificial intelligence is very real right now [2001]. It's far from recreating a human brain, with all its power, emotions and flexibility, though that might be possible in as little as 30 years. Today's Al Can recreate slices of what humans do, in software that can indeed make decisions." (USA TODAY) This article explores scientific advances in artificial intelligence. ROBOTS MARCH FORWARD--ON SCREEN AND OFF -- "In the new science fiction movie 'A.I.,' humans build robots in their own image, using them for companionship, for sex and as surrogate children...some prominent real-world researchers who work in the field think the film's robots--played by human actors with special-effects help--are a reasonable approximation of where robotics is headed." (KANSAS CITY STAR) This article explores the future of robotics and compares it to the robotic characters portrayed in Steven Spielberg's movie A.I.
