mobile phone the long the long didn't. believe. going to diminish it may lead you to. believe me. my 1st boss was a sewing machine. icon for all women are almost by this social influence even something as simple as learning how to write a bicep those isn't. since i was a little girl i wanted to adam's bisect lost my home and it took me years to undismayed. finally gave up and mentioned buying young lives like that but returns

with the sewing machine sewing i suppose was more apt procreate for goes than writing i'm biased as knowledge i want to meet those women back home who are bones by their duties and social norms and inform them of old dead basic rights my name is the matter of the home and i work it's easy to move. move move move. move. move move move move move move the body. japan is a pioneer in robotic research there i got to know one of the world's top roboticists and his mind blowing creations i want to be today on ship. professor he rushes you 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 a hero here well i think creatures you know and fishing and we need to have more robots 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 they're 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 does turn to robots for help it's a new robot strategy program actively supports such technologies but no one has

gone as far as he wrote. he's even created his own robotics when called gemini. gemini it doesn't act autonomy instead it's remote controlled in real time by an operator you don't know what is it like to sit in that room all day. so how noisy i'm very i'm very sad and how does he keep his twin looking like him long term we did in there all was and this is you know and i also know updating the my face also the question though which is the cheaper earth you know right roxanne so here he is all in on the new president of the us or in you know usually in on the right price at surgeries that matter to you but. this tell annoyed is also remote controlled its software transmits facial expressions and speech simultaneously but my question about a boss puts the technician behind tell him not on the spot i have one question what

kind of man is your invent it. you're asking. about your inventive on what kind of guy was next to me right now. so those was hard for us to talk about and how did. he say to me well yeah. ok. so that's very very diplomatic. ok i will try to argue. i feel hard. feel. and they say you're creepy but holding you in my hands i have to say it feels natural it's you know i mean i'm really i'm really very very surprised by by. talking to you to tell me more and better because a very simple. ok i admit the tele not look

a bit creepy but what made me uncomfortable was holding on to such an expensive device. what really surprised me was how it's neutral appearance affected the impression i had made the tel annoyed office a blank surface to protect your own imagination onto and since the technician had a pleasant voice the 10 annoyed made an altogether good impression he rushes uro's creation sometimes resembled works of art they pose an existential questions like what does it mean to be human that's something as you grow also exposing his worth . i am interested in the human side in the mine which visions 10 days on what you might be poor you know i i so there's so many things and i'm something about the humans by using and. born in she got 963 hiroshi she grew out of the oil painting in his youth 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 these idea of all was for interrupting with. the rushes she drew has been working on creating robots that resemble humans for decades. she's also developed female and child androids this one was fashioned out of his daughter who was 4 at the time. gemini his robotics when he was a prototype for a new generation of humanoid robots the remote controlled android has already stored in for as it were during speeches and university lectures she grew hopes his robotic clone will help him find out more about what's human presence really means and he wants to get to know himself better too. the. most important things were there for me was the way i have created in my copy thing i don't understand. i cannot get to be about them i say i don't know that my pace

and my behavior and my voice right through think i can understand myself so that kind of finding what i'd be important for me robotics when to help you understand yourself better mazing but to many if you girls androids are just plain creepy there's 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 she's 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 she's an attraction for the

stuff she's completely normal. we're on the road even though don can you more right so the reaction of people to getting a very natural using of this is the android and it is so you know quite unnatural in a scene that i but they my campus always in the my student is moving in the on the road in the campus and you can then robot to use a moving around the campus but no one knows what they pay attention to that all about. 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 eric guys at the forefront of our body agree search. what a conversation partner concious is that she's connected to a computer system that's constantly scanning him and that's what. we don't get there but when this window you can see where all the people are one person is here

. erica is here so erica can recognize what the tech that there's a person on her right side then through this camera here will she picks up the direction of the person's face their facial expression and associate who this person is. a good kind of the last time you heard your and in your book you go to the store. cannot get iraq. so what is. the software also analyze a conversation partners voice so erica can engage in dialogue with them. you know by so that. in order to design a broker 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 pre-determined 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 world's robots made here many for industrial use but robots also play a big role in japanese pop culture in tokyo this full size gand the 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 you girls and also 3 has been touring the world as an orchestra conductor since 2018 the music was written by 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 will. 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. that sees. the music is preprogramed but also 3 interprets it differently each time those that make it creative things to ai is conducting skills a matter of chance and he is another question can robots convey spirituality in germany we had a blessing robot cause bless you too. well. meanwhile he rushes you guru has created his version of a buddhist priest and in terms of technology alone is of an entirely different caliber. an android that ponders what it means to be human desire anger selfishness around the mind has been explaining the basics of the buddhist faith and as part of a multimedia performance. such

a height the growth of the. took the york a lot not all of the good of the big the some people find it odd when they arrive. but 25 minutes later after experiencing the ceremony they're quite accepting of mind. this. the russian ishiguro developed mind the incorporation with a team from osaka university they spend 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 take cues so now we have a robot they can you know why we don't use what the technology is before making that . kind of botch of it i think. it's chiodos could dodgy

temple they hope that mind that will spark fresh interest in buddhism. and the future mind could be more than just a high tech attraction they're 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 wiki 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 what was your view should robots play a bigger role in our lives or does the idea scare you tell us on facebook dot com and to learn more about japanese robot developers 2nd or you tube channel that's it for me for now see you next time.

like 630 years after the fulfillment of. everything seems possible here. 19 years you. might see is where the peaceful revolution began. today it's a creative and driving the truck honest. those just the right song procure it into the city's past and present traditions. g.w. . just tells my story. of the people who found me knows me dead against him in mines to me. i am not too dumb to come in

and leans on my secrets. i have monta my city's days for centuries and accompanied my country through its finest hours until the day i mean. not to down demean us dance a good. today

my destination it's like the former east german city where the peaceful revolution began in the autumn of 1000.
