Robots and artificial intelligence (AI) will soon be coming to a workplace near you, and people have mixed feelings about it.As the workplace becomes more high-tech, it makes sense to look at how the increasing use of robotics and AI will impact different professions.

The Original Robotic Industry — Manufacturing

The first industry to see robotic innovation was manufacturing, and the use of robots has only evolved over time.

Increased intelligence — Robots were originally only suited for unskilled tasks. However, the latest generation of robots benefits from research into artificial neural networks. New robots can now understand and learn from images, videos, and audio. Some robots even have a rudimentary ability to reason.

Robotics and Artificial Intelligence

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a general term that implies the use of a computer to model and/or replicate intelligent behavior. Research in AI focuses on the development and analysis of algorithms that learn and/or perform intelligent behavior with minimal human intervention. These techniques have been and continue to be applied to a broad range of problems that arise in robotics, e-commerce, medical diagnosis, gaming, mathematics, and military planning and logistics, to name a few. Several research groups fall under the general umbrella of AI in the department, but are disciplines in their own right, including: robotics, natural language processing (NLP), computer vision, computational biology, and e-commerce. Specifically, research is being conducted in estimation theory, mobility mechanisms, multi-agent negotiation, natural language interfaces, machine learning, active computer vision, probabilistic language models for use in spoken language interfaces, and the modeling and integration of visual, haptic, auditory and motor information.
