Understanding Robots and AI

With AI, machines are made to act like they understand and think.

• They can perform tasks without human intervention.

• They can only follow pre-programmed instructions.

• They can simulate human-like understanding and reasoning.

• They are capable of independent thought and creativity.

Roomba

• A robotic vacuum cleaner developed in the USA in 2002.

• A type of smartphone released in 2010.

• A brand of kitchen appliances introduced in 2015.

• A home security system launched in 2018.

A 'smart' robot can move around like us and talk to us.

• It can perform complex calculations.

• It can only move in a straight line.

• It can interact with humans and perform tasks.

• It can only talk but not move.
