Robotics involves the use of machines to carry out tasks, while Artificial Intelligence involves the use of computers to simulate human intelligence. Both Robotics and Artificial Intelligence have the potential to greatly augment human life. Robotics can be used to carry out dangerous or difficult tasks, such as exploring other planets or defusing bombs. Meanwhile, Artificial Intelligence can be used to help humans make better decisions, by analyzing large amounts of data and identifying patterns that humans might miss. 

In the future, Robotics and Artificial Intelligence will increasingly become intertwined, as robots begin to incorporate more and more AI features. As these technologies continue to develop, they will have an ever-growing impact on human life, augmenting our abilities in ways that we cannot even imagine. In this episode, we explore the current state of the robotics and ai world and the applications that are finding their way into our healthcare systems and daily lives.
