Check out this article (sent by Myron) from Wired about Japan's Great Robot Exhibition. Who knew that scientists were so far along in the development of AI? Be sure to click on all the images on the right-hand side to to get descriptions of all the different 'bots. They say government technology is something like 20 years ahead of what the general public is aware of. Just think: if such advanced technology as this is on display, it's possible that some government warehouse somewhere is full of super-intelligent robots that could take over the world by remote control. Bit of a reach? Yeah, probably, but it's amazing how far we can progress in even as little as a year.
