At some point, when does a robot stop being a robot and turn into a biomechanoid? And when does a biomechanoid turn into a synthetic human? Where does AI kick in? There has to be a continuum on this stuff.

Sadly Robotic Metaphors for AI

Another #SadlyRoboticMetaphor! "Smile At Your Plastic Robot Teacher"

This classic aka tired AI as a Robot Teacher image is from a blog post from someone I deeply respect, Tony Bates in his post on An evaluation of Contact North’s AI tools for education.

Of course the dream of AI as a brightly lit classroom full of bright happy colors, with the friendly plastic robot in front. Why is this the dream? Why does a teacher need to be displaced?

More than that, […]

The image depicts a cheerful classroom setting where a young boy is interacting with a humanoid robot. The boy, sitting at a desk, is smiling and appears engaged in conversation with the robot in front of him. The robot is colorful, with a primarily turquoise and orange design, large round eyes, and sleek, smooth surfaces. The background shows a lively classroom with colorful wall decorations and other children seated at desks, engaged in activities, and smiling. The atmosphere seems vibrant and educational, with bright colors and a cheerful environment.

A senior asked me to help get their robot vacuum working. It was a gift from a neighbour, to make their life easier.

"It wants to connect to your phone by Wi-Fi."

"Oh!" in a dismayed tone.

An internet search reveals Wi-Fi is unnecessary if you start the cleaning manually.

"You could just start and stop it by hand."

"Oh, the Start button's easy."

"And here's how to empty the dirt canister."

"I already know how to do that because Janet has one."

"OK. It's all set up, then."

My Pets - Never need to taken out to do their business, don't need to be fed, never make a mess while I'm away...BUT they do demand I teach them something way too often.

TurtleBot5-WaLI (Wallfollower Looking For Intelligence) is running ROS2 Jazzy, and HumbleDave2 (Just Dave) is running ROS2 Humble Hawksbill.

TB5-Wali has been "alive" for 2056 hours since Jan 9, 2025.

HumbleDave2 has self docked 1283 times in his four years of life to date.

Two robots - Turtlebot 5 WaLI has a WALL-E character atop a Create3 robot base, and next to him is Humble Dave 2 which has a Minion Dave character atop a GoPiGo3 robot base. Each robot is standing in front of their charging dock during their play time.
