This talk attempts to answer the question “how intelligent are present-day intelligent robots?” and describe efforts to design robots that are not only more intelligent but also have a sense of self. But if we should be successful in designing such robots, would they think like animals, or even humans? And what are the realistic prospects for future (sentient) robots as smart as humans?

Topics covered in this lesson
  • Future of robots and AI
  • Ethical implications of "intelligent" robots
  • Societal impact of artificial sentience
