From usingartificial intelligenceto more quickly generate iterations and simulations during product design to using robots to complete manufacturing tasks, the broad scope of work for mechanical engineers has gone digital. “AI and machine learning have changed the way t...
Most people think of artists and musicians as creative. But engineers are some of the most creative people around. There are many, many kinds of engineers. Some engineers design and build roads, others invent new machines like robot-building robots, or develop new materials to make tennis racke...
What Do Engineers Do? Engineers come with a wide range of interests, talents, and strengths. Some excel at planning and designing cities or structures, while others are passionate about technology, working on robots, or spacecraft. When it comes to answering the question, “What does an engi...
The engine in your car, the turbine providing your town with power, the elevator you ride in the mall: the work of mechanical engineers is everywhere. When a problem calls for a mechanical solution, they respond with everything from newly developed conveyor systems to robots to ...
"See, only humans can do this, not robots," he shouts. Two workers are servicing mechanical parts, looking with trained eyes for the smallest cracks or irregularities and then polishing them carefully. Just under five meters away, the arm of a robot is pulling an iron rod out of a ...

either augmenting our abilities or doing things we simply don't want to do; we don't automatically need "intelligence" for that. According to pragmatic engineers like Warwick, robots should be assessed on their own terms against the specific tasks they're designed for, not according to some ...
Engineers at Princeton University and Google have come up with a new way to teach robots to know when they don't know. The technique involves quantifying the fuzziness of human language and using that measurement to tell robots when to ask for further directions. Telling arobotto pick up a ...
thanks to competition from robots. Autopilot features have long supported pilots in the air—in fact, pilots generally assume control of their airplanes only during takeoff and landing. Those two tasks, however, are being taught to their mechanical competitors, and it's likely that both humans an...
As robots like the Unitree H1 start doing things we never thought possible, there’s a really good chance they will take over jobs now done by humans. What’s your take on this? Let us know by writing us at Cyberguy.com/Contact. For more of my tech tips & security alerts, subscribe...
