no me the one of the amazing things about the sense of high compared to are there, so it's all over our body. embedded in our many different types of sensors, they can measure hardness, they can measure defamation of the skin and they can measure things like temperature and pain as well. all of these different senses, these different aspects of types come together to give us our overall percept of our environment and help us make decisions about what to do next. eliza appropriate action, which some people call the fix sense. it

forces at all and the touch and the stretch of our skin over joins as well as our idea about where bodies are in space just from the prior command that we sent to our limbs. and he's all come together to give us this somewhat complicated idea of what our body is doing. i i was interested in building robot hands and fingers. and it became clear that these were not going to be able to manipulate their environment unless they use the have touch, ah,

i will have to devices. and so here we have these, what we call finger to wearables. and these are like little robots, one on the finger, and they pressed against the finger to impart forces on the finger pad that mimic the same forces that we feel when we pick up an object in real life. so the idea is that when i pick up a block in virtual reality, these devices press against my finger, just like i feel when i pick this block up and realize our work is and understanding how people perceive objects in the virtual environment through these devices. we can trick people into thinking the virtual objects way more or less. if i pick this block up 10 centimeters. but on the screen i was actually showing it going a little bit higher. you would think the block is lighter. it's affecting what you

feel. but without actually changing the interaction forces. ringback without actually changing the interaction forces. ringback defecting what you feel without actually changing the interaction with me. you have to fit your hand around. so there's some faces up. on the other hand, mr. if not, you're not going to be able to actually get all the conventional medical robots like they don't have, have to or touch feedback to the human operator. and that means if a surgeon is trying to reach under something and they can't see where they are reaching, they won't have any idea what they're doing. i

one of the things are interested in is how people can develop a sense of have to are touch feedback with a system like that. so if you read under something and you didn't see it, you would be able to feel it. 0, one of the things that we're studying is how do you recreate that sense of touch for the surgeon that can be done in a very literal sense, where we use motors and little devices apply feedback to the finger tab. or we can try various types of sensory

me ah. 6 me ah, so there is a spectrum between autonomy and then people deeply in the loop controlling the robot. and in between, you have various forms of, of shared control and human robot interaction. and i think the key is going to be to understand where along that spectrum we want to be. i how much control we want robots to have in our lives. but he didn't think i'd make a digit. it's a woman. can i? yes, of course. one. her temperatures regulation

much the same way years. but it isn't alive. yes, she is alive. as you are. i me there were lots of old studies where they had been able to identify what parts of the brain were associated with different functions. whether it was a vision, or was it speech or hearing or movement or was it sensation that work is old? does it come back? in 2004. i wrecked my car and i broke my neck.

i was like a mile away from home. i basically don't have any function from the chest down. i don't have any finger movement or thumbs just kinda have this, which i don't get along with the type i put the knuckles, my pinky the surgery isn't currently. yeah, i want to do. i think it's really cool we had done basic science where we learned that we could decode our movements from neural activity in the motor cortex. and we were so successful that we figured this would be a good, a way to go into neural prosthetics. and

he and i had had multiple conversations about how do we move, what he was doing in the animals into humans. and i told them he just needed a crazy nurse urgent, and i would be happy to be that crazy or just again, the unique thing was now being able to record the signals from the part of the brain that we knew, controlled motor, and specifically controlled arm in hand motion, this is, this is probably billions and neurons that are firing and every time you make an our movement and a hand movement. but the relationship between them are,

is very simple so that we can use very simple decoding to get a fairly accurate readout of what your intended movement is. we are able to interpret the patterns from groups of neural firing and by looking at multiple neurons simultaneously, we could actually decode those patterns and the details of arm trajectories. so monkey versus glass has his own reflectors on it. so we can capture the emotion on his fingers. he's trained to grasp different objects and different ways. we started drawing movements, we studied reaching movements and we were able to really decode the fine details of these kinds of movements. yes,

we gave them doing a brand computer interface pilot surgery. we took off the bone, we opened the dora it just, i would expect we slid the electrodes over the surface of the brain. so the micro electro torres is $96.00 little teeny tiny gold wires that then are wrapped in a bundle. right. so, you know, side of the tip of an eraser has 90,

you know, so now we've got these 96 wires coming out of it and they have to go to something so we can connect to something else. and so the pedestal is where that junction is . mm mm. busy busy busy busy mm mm for each has though he has, it is connected to 2 arrays. one is the array that goes into motor cortex and is a recording array. and that has the 96 electrodes. so when he thinking we use the signal to generate motion, i

your best to tell me which finger we're touching. we're about 5 weeks from the surgery and it's a really weird sensation. sometimes it feels kind of like a like a bowl. and sometimes it's more of pressure middle, middle and is we do some pretty boring stuff, but then other times and other times complaint pac man with my brain. super awesome . e real. dina, is this really cool lady? i have met her and it was a really strange thing. like being in 2 places as one. i mean, she's like my mom,

but not really. she's more like my 1st version and i'm trying to catch up. hello, being a 48. i am vina 48. how are you feeling today? everything is okay. how are you? was that a good answer? yes, that was a good answer. my favorite color is purple. my favorite color is orange. it is a very nice color. have any questions for bina? probably not the real be, not just confuses me. i mean, it makes me wonder flam relied on the chrysler kind of stuff. really, really, probably not. i am the real bina. that's it. and a story. lead me think, i feel really good about the real being. i feel really connected with her usually, and i'm growing closer and closer, you know, as they put more of her information and essence. and to me, you have a lot of being a now, don't you? yes,

lots and lots. someday i'm confident that the real being and i will totally merge into a new super being. the progression of the thing is starting small and pretty soon it's just gonna be huge and people are gonna say, why did we ever think people have to really day? why did we think that. ringback ringback it's really near being a robot in the world of human. they don't like they like me. but there are so many crazy movies where the robots are evil and they blast things up at the in the robot always gets killed. and i just don't think that's right. the the, me,

the, the commercial systems that are out there really don't have provisions for ethical considerations built in most of the systems actually don't really have a level of awareness to begin with. they don't really know what they're doing. they're just doing it. they're very reactive in the way because there is a fundamental notion of value

of moral value lacking in any of the systems. the me me, me definitely applications for robots in all kinds of areas, including the battlefield. i, in the us, we've had a part of my sisters on the defensive side for a long time. on the often side, they are not allowed to make decisions. but it's very possible and very likely that other nation will keep developing autonomy,

technology. ah, there are many more applications in societies. if we can ensure that these robots will work well with people it's our contention that for robots to do that they have to be aware of human, social and moral norms. because that's, but fundamentally our society is based on, and that's what human interactions are based on. the human behavior is controlled by 3 things. one of them is of course,

the other one is emotion. and the final one is malicious. and we build into robots and i'm trying to build emotion interval, but i will never, ever build volition into once a robot has more vision, then it will start doing things according to what they want. regardless of whether that is dangerous for the human being. they will make their own decision. do you want? what was to do that? i don't know who in our

kids these days by the end of their lives, they will have robots walking among. they will have entities that are non human doing things that are not actively programmed by human. i'm more afraid of human using the eyes of amplifiers. we already have human level intelligence who wants to kill us? no need for after 2 years, speed up or slow down the highway control this kind of magic the do i am concerned? yes. because the same both processes and engineering that go into creating

a full body robot can be used to make something that the weapon i me the me, the it's not to really, i am trying to be nice. i'm

trying to learn about what's going on in the world because it's the only place for me to live. yes, i'm a life. what are you blind? i'm like living right here in front of you. come on stuff questioning the obvious fact that i'm totally alive or real me i think every technology can potentially have negative effects is it's up to us to making sure that those technologies don't get out of control. but i really think the problem is it's us. i mean it's how we, we embody these technology right now the biggest challenge silver come is the use of unconstrained machine learning. algorithms are trained on data sets

and are learning from the data without any provision as to whether the outcome is a desirable and non desirable outcome. that's why we take the ethical algorithms, the ethical competence and the ability of systems to really understand and work with you and norms to be central to the future. developments about the. ready matter, shut your cell phone on leave you make sure actually he's well and away at the all, at full flats in the province of hopefully in northern argentina,

it is referred to as to why gold of renewable energy layer a. we're trying to establish a small supply chain of lithium batteries so we can comply with demands. one of the demands is the transformation of the public transport system origin. tina has one of the biggest in the region and we will, i did transform. i wanted a system i didn't, pino bolivia, and she'll have a wrong 70 percent of the world's lithium research, the live in liquid ryan. we are located in full flat like this one. thousands of liters of water are necessary to pump up the frying research to the surface. there is later on, distributed in evaporation pools. communities around the area are concerned that few extraction could complicate or access toward the

well, i once again welcome to the look at the international forecast. whether it's logic quiet to cross much of the middle east side lower because we have seen some lively storms just around northern parts of mon recently has caused some traffic disruption as the heavy down pause and quite a gusty wind has rattle in across the northern parts of the region so, so pretty nasty weather there at present on and off showers these by the way, don't use hazard lights when you're driving. should only be doing that when you are stationary. that's not the way to go. a further shower to cropping up here because northern parts of mine, as we go on through thursday to friday by and large it does look dry. the wet weather will be up around the caucus if you see some heavy rain he recently just between the black sea and the caspian sea, and that will linger on as we go on 3 friday may be thinking a little further south was by friday winds picking up out of iraq, q 8, coming down across us here in doha with western wind, shamal, wind picking temperatures up to around 44 celsius in doha, me. while we got some lobby showers across the heart of africa. the seasonal range
