A time you wanted to film very much alive. Travel to such germany. Where exactly. Was fun. Learning a lot of our culture history and. Travel extremely worth a visit. Japan is a pioneer in Robotic Research there i got to know one of the worlds top roboticists and his mind blowing creations i want topic today on shift. Professor he runs he is the guru is a real rock star in the robotic seat he specializes in human robot into action and androids robots that look like humans i met him in his lab in kioto. Hi everybody my name is interesting well i think creatures you know and fishing your planet when you can have them are all that. We need more robots why exactly in japan people are more comfortable with robots than elsewhere that may have to do with the influence of shintoism which states that all things have a spirit even robots could have a soul that might be why theyre more willing to use robots to solve social problems japan has a Super Aging Society the average age is 48. 4 years the result is a lack of manpower for everything from factory workers to caregivers for the elderly so since 2015 the japanese government has turned to robots for help its new robot Strategy Program actively supports such technologies but no one has gone as far as heroes you go hes even created his own robotics when called gemini. Gemini doesnt act autonomy as leader instead its remote controlled in real time by an operator you know what is it like to sit in that room all day. So how annoyed im very im very sad and how does he keep his twin looking like him long term. Theyre doing theyre all bad and this is you know and i also and updating them my face or so the question there which is the cheaper earth. Right rusty surgeries or you know the new president of us here in you know usually in on the right process. This tell annoyed is also remote controlled its software transmits facial expressions and speech simultaneously but my question about obamas push the technician behind tell him not on the spot i have one question what kind of man is your invent it. You. Know about your inventive on what kind of guy was next to me right now yeah so those was hard when you were to talk about him how did. He say to me well yeah. I dont want ok. So thats very very diplomatic. Ok i will try to argue. With you i feel hard. And they say youre creepy but holding you in my hands i have to say it feels natural its because im im really here im going to leave you in the very surprised by by. Talking to you to tell him. That it was very simple. Ok i admit that does look a bit creepy but what made me uncomfortable was holding on to such an expensive high tech device. What really surprised me was how its neutral appearance affected the impression i had made the tel annoyed office a blank surface to project your own imagination onto and since the technician had a pleasant voice the 10 annoyed made an altogether good impression he rushes uros creation sometimes resembled works of art they pose an existential questions like what does it mean to be human thats something as you grow also explores in his work. I am interested in the human side you know my motivations tend is on what you might be for you know. I so theres so many things and something about the humans by using and. Born in she got 963 hiroshi she grew out of the oil painting is useless he dreamed of being an artist but wound up studying Computer Science instead he became an engineer and developed the keen interest in ai and robotics. When i have created a parser although i was thinking about the what is i draw whats for interrupting we. Should rule has been working on creating robots that resemble humans for decades. Shes also developed female and child androids this one was fashioned out of his daughter who was 4 at the time. Jam annoyed his robotics when he was a prototype for a new generation of humanoid robots the remote controlled android has already stored in for as you were going speeches and University Lectures if youre a hopes his robot clone will help him find out more about watch human presence really means and he wants to get to know himself better to. Do the. Most important things for me was the way i have created in my copy thing i dont understand. I cannot have the objective view about them i said i dont know that my pace and my behavior and my voice right through think i can understand myself so that kind of not defining what id be important for me robotics when to help you understand yourself better mazing but to many if you girls androids are just plain creepy theres even a technical term for the eerie feeling humanoid robots provoke uncanny valley is clearly visible in this graphic the uncanny valley theory states that when a robot looks too human people are repulsed but to ensure a positive interaction we must feel comfortable with humanoid robots professor as you grow believes the uncanny valley will soon be a thing of the past thanks to this android. Meet erica shes capable of understanding language in this case japanese she can talk and can assume a number of human like facial expressions erica can usually be found sitting in the lobby of the Research Institute near kioto for visitors shes an attraction for the stuff shes completely normal. Were on the road even though don can you more right. The reaction of people who are used to getting a very natural using of this here than the road and it is so you know quite unnatural in a scene where they might count us always in the my student is moving in the on the road being on campus and they can then robotics and moving around the campus but no one knows what they Pay Attention to that all but. But making robots that can communicate like people that understand the topics and context necessary to make a conversation seem natural is still a big challenge for ai in many ways erik eyes at the forefront of her body agree search. What a conversation partner concious is that shes connected to a Computer System thats constantly scanning him and thats what. Were going to the one in this window you can see where all the people are one person is here. Erica is here so erica can recognize what a text that theres a person on her right side then through this camera here will she picks up the direction of the persons face their facial expression colorful and associate who this person is. Just kind of the last time the your and theyre your boycott and the cure. Cannot be right. So just. The software also analyzes a conversation partners voice so erica can engage in dialogue with them. You know when ill buy so that if im a little in order to design a bro bot that talks to ordinary people properly human input is necessary. But they enjoyed independently determine is the topic selection and strategy. Erica is an autonomy is the operating robot but part of the process is predetermined by humans by what they want to. Erica really impressed me for decades japan has been a leader in the development of production of robots over half of the worlds robots made here many for industrial use but robots also play a big role in japanese pop culture in tokyo this full size ganda robot turns many hats machines have even made their way into the music world how does a symphony sound when is conducted by a robot. He rushes she grows and also 3 has been touring the world as an orchestra conductor since 2018 the music was written by a japanese composer. Equipped with state of the art Artificial Intelligence 3 has Something Like its own new role network that makes the robot move spontaneously as it interprets the score. The premise is that the android itself is moving according to its own well. You know however as a separate program the structural elements of this core created by mr shibuya are interjected into the independent and autonomy as actions. Because thats. The music is preprogramed but also 3 interprets it differently each time those that make it Creative Things to ai its conducting skills a matter of chance and here is another question can robots convey spirituality in germany we had a blessing robot cause bless you to well. Meanwhile he rushes you world has created his version of a buddhist priest and in terms of technology alone is of an entirely different caliber. Than android that one does what it means to be human desire anger selfishness for around a year mind has been explaining the basics of the buddhist faith. As part of a multimedia performance. Such a height the growth of the. Not took the york or not looked at their dig the some people find it odd when they arrive. But 25 minutes later after experiencing the ceremony theyre quite accepting of mind. This. The russian ishiguro developed minor incorporation with a team from Osaka University they spent some 900000 euros creating it. Had face and hands made from silicone and modeled after Human Anatomy the rest was deliberately left to look like a machine. Or even already in the in a buddhism it was just a message from the gods then you know that someone made these thank yous so now we have a robot they can you know why we dont use what they think you know i did before making that. Kind of. Thing. As chiodos kodachi temple they hold that in mind i will stock fresh interest in buddhism. And the future mind could be more than just a high tech attraction theyre thinking of feeding the robot with buddhist teachings and knowledge and equipping it with ai software then mind they could answer questions on his own like an interactive buddhist we could pedia robots can be priests august and even can give us in japan the prospect of machines taking over important jobs in society is not a frightening one but your view should robots play a bigger role in our lives or does the idea scare you tell us on facebook or do w dot com and to learn more about japanese Robot Developers 2nd of all you tube channel thats it for me for now see you next time.
