"2015 Rise of the Robots" “In Silicon Valley the phrase ‘disruptive technology’ is tossed around on a casual basis. No one doubts that technology has the power to devastate entire industries and upend specific sectors of the economy and jobs market. The question I will ask in this book is bigger: Can accelerating technology disrupt our entire system to the point where a fundamental restructuring may be required if prosperity is to continue?”

Robo Sapiens. Episode 2, Growth (2017) (Abstract) "In the travel series Robo Sapiens Jelle Brandt Corstius investigates how robots and artificial intelligence influence our lives and how this will still be changing even more. The speed of new technological developments is mindboggling. What does this mean for us? Is there a reason to be fearful or should we long for the future with great expectations? In the second episode of Robo sapiens, Jelle Brandt Corstius examines to what extent robots and artificial intelligence will become more accurate and smarter than we do. Self-driving cars, lie detectors and poker tournaments: in more and more areas we compete against the technology. Is that a bad thing? We teach robots everything, and they teach us. When does it end? And how do we ensure that it does not get out of hand?"
"Humanoid A.I." - from Academic Video Online "We explore efforts to develop robots with artificial intelligence that mimics our own. We explore IBM’s secret research facility in California and meet the man behind their ‘brain-inspired’ microchip that could make all our computers work and think like we do. We travel to Sheffield in the UK to meet Tony Prescott, a man who is striving to develop a robot with a sense of self, essentially, a robot that can think for itself. We then round-up all the latest science news that you need to know."

"We Need to Talk About How Good A.I. Is Getting" (2022) "We’re in a golden age of progress in artificial intelligence. It’s time to start taking its potential and risks seriously."
"Killer Robots Aren’t Science Fiction. A Push to Ban Them Is Growing" (2021) "A U.N. conference made little headway this week on limiting development and use of killer robots, prompting stepped-up calls to outlaw such weapons with a new treaty."

Robots in Workplace Contribute to Burnout, Job Insecurity (Intro) Washington — Working alongside robots may contribute to job burnout and workplace incivility, but self-affirmation techniques could help alleviate fears about being replaced by these machines, according to research published by the American Psychological Association.
Rise of Robot Radiologists From Scientific American "Deep-learning algorithms are peering into MRIs and x-rays with unmatched vision, but who is to blame when they make a mistake?"
How Robots Work (Intro) "Artificial intelligence (AI) is arguably the most exciting field in robotics. It's certainly the most controversial: Everybody agrees that a robot can work in an assembly line, but there's no consensus on whether a robot can ever be intelligent. Like the term "robot" itself, artificial intelligence is hard to define. Ultimate AI would be a recreation of the human thought process — a human-made machine with our intellectual abilities. This would include the ability to learn just about anything, the ability to reason, the ability to use language and the ability to formulate original ideas. Roboticists are nowhere near achieving this level of artificial intelligence, but they have made a lot of progress with more limited AI. Today's AI machines can replicate some specific elements of intellectual ability."

The American College of Radiology Data Science Institute (ASR DSI) (About Us) "The American College of Radiology Data Science Institute is collaborating with radiology professionals, industry leaders, government agencies, patients, and other stakeholders to facilitate the development and implementation of artificial intelligence (AI) applications that will help radiology professionals provide improved medical care."

US Dept of Veteran Affairs - National Artificial Intelligence Institute (NAII) (About Us) " The National Artificial Intelligence Institute (NAII) is the preeminent organization for artificial intelligence (AI) research, implementation, policy and collaboration at the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)."

Robo Cup Federation (About Us) "It is our intention to use RoboCup as a vehicle to promote robotics and AI research, by offering a publicly appealing, but formidable challenge. One of the effective ways to promote science and engineering research is to set a challenging long term goal. When the accomplishment of such a goal has significant social impact, it is called a grand challenge project. Building a robot that plays soccer will not by itself generate significant social and economic impact, but the accomplishment will certainly be considered a major achievement for the field. We call this kind of project a landmark project. RoboCup is a landmark project as well as a standard problem."

American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA) (About Us) "AMIA (American Medical Informatics Association) is a community committed to the vision of a world where informatics transforms people’s care. Over the last 35 years, the use of informatics has grown exponentially to improve health and to make better healthcare decisions. Today, informatics is the key to accelerating the current goals of healthcare reform."
Foundation for Responsible Robotics (Mission Statement) "he mission of the Foundation for Responsible Robotics is to shape a future of responsible robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) design, development, use, regulation, and implementation. We see both the definition of responsible robotics and the means of achieving it as ongoing tasks that will evolve alongside the technology."
The Robotic & A.I. Governance Foundation (About Us) "The Robotic & A.I. Governance Foundation is leading the discussion about the impact of these technological disruptors on societies and humankind. It offers a platform to find the answers to such important questions like "Will the robots of the future be my companions, my competitors or "just" intelligent tools?" and "Will a program one day talk to me like a human being and I will no longer be able to spot the difference?"."
