Robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) are now two of
the most exciting fields in science. Some say that the marriage of AI and robotics
will usher in an entirely
new way of life for us on Earth. Others worry that this change is going to be too
dramatic. The great debate over the future of robotics will continue at the World
Conference on Robotics and Artificial Intelligence in Barcelona, Spain, on July 26.
While some robots look like mechanical people with
two arms, two legs, and a talking head, most robots look nothing like humans. Robots
are usually controlled
by computers, such as those found in a manufacturing facility. Artificial intelligence refers to
a machine or robot that can learn from its surroundings and adapt to them.
Machines are starting to learn in similar ways to human beings. They are able to receive
signals from their environment, store those signals as vital information,
and modify their behaviors. Both self-driving cars
and robot vacuums use this technology. Cars simultaneously sense their environ-
ment and use electronic maps and traffic data. They know when to stop and go, what
route is the fastest, and what speed is the most energy efficient. The Roomba vacuum
also uses sensors to know when to stop and go, which parts
of the floor are dirtiest, and when cleanliness has been achieved. Additionally, the
Roomba can identify whether it’s vacuuming a hardwood floor or plush carpet and
adjust accordingly.
Do these robots spell the end of work for cabbiesand janitors? Some say that half the
world’s jobs will be done by robots by the middle
of the century. One such robot is “Flippy,” the mechanical burger flipper, which de-
buted at a California burger joint last March. Another is Kiva, a robot designed to
retrieve goods from the vast warehouses of the online seller
from the vast warehouses of the online seller Amazon. Whatever your feelings for ro-
bots, in many ways they are already working among us.
are already working among us.

While riding the bus, my mother noticed a young man, who was holding onto the same pole, staring at her. Eventually, he said,
"Excuse me. This is my stop. "Since she wasn't blocking his way, she was confused. "Well," she said, "go ahead."
"And this is my pole," he said. My mother was completely perplexed until the young man added, "I just bought it at the hardware store to
hold up my shower curtain."
Riddle Me This
What do you call a can opener
that doesn’t work?
You Are What You Eat
In the pioneer days of America, your
kitchen could only stock ingredients
that were at hand depending on
the season. When ingredients were
scarce, cooks got desperate, hence
the development of vinegar pie.
Normally, pies would be made with
fresh fruit or, at least, lemon juice.
Vinegars such as apple cider vinegar
offered a similar fruity tartness.
Similarly, when apples weren’t
available, people mixed crackers and
lemon juice to make a mock-apple
filling. These pies earned the
nickname despera�on pies, for
obvious reasons.
ANSWER !
A CAN’T OPENER
FLOWER OF THE MONTH
Bikini Day, in honor of the inven*on of the skimpy swimsuit by
French designer Louis Reard in 1946. It was named a2er the Bikini
Atoll, where the United States had conducted tests of the atomic
bomb.
Many flowers take their names from their colors,
but the larkspur takes its name from an
animal. The flower’s scien*fic name, delphinium,
is derived from the Greek word delphis,
meaning “dolphin.” As the larkspur begins to bloom,
its petals form graceful arches and
curve in a bo9le-like shape, resembling the
nose of this joyful marine mammal.
The larkspur is also said to reflect the dolphin’s
spirit—a purple larkspur
represen*ng the soaring emo*ons from a first love.
Larkspurs of all colors
are thought to symbolize feelings of lightness, levity,
and an open heart.
The en*re plant is extremely poisonous,
and historically the flower has been
used to drive away unwanted cri9ers,
such as scorpions and poisonous snakes.
Transylvanians take this tradi*on a bit further—
they plant blue larkspurs around the
horse stables to ward off witches.
