Breakthrough: Robots with Lab-Grown Brains and Human Skin Push AI Boundaries
  • Chinese scientists have developed a robot with an artificial brain using brain-on-chip technology.

  • This technology merges human brain-like tissue with a computer chip.

  • The brain-computer interface allows the robot to learn tasks such as obstacle avoidance and object manipulation.

  • Organoids grown from human pluripotent stem cells are linked to the robot's neural interface.

  • This connection enables communication between the neural tissue and the robot's systems.

  • Researchers in Japan have grafted living human skin onto a humanoid robot's face.

  • The grafted skin enhances the robot's sensing abilities and appearance.

  • These advancements represent significant progress in robotics and AI with potential applications in neurological repair and human health.
