Part 6/10:
A major theme in Mills' discussions is the integration of artificial intelligence with robotics. He highlights that AI can transform how robots operate, making them more intelligent and useful in everyday environments. Mills introduces the concept of ambient computing, envisioning a future where technology seamlessly integrates into daily life, similar to electricity today.
Mills points out that much of current technology, while advanced, is still clunky and requires user adaptation rather than being intuitive. The goal is to create systems that naturally understand and adapt to human needs, which will be critical for the success of future AI and robotic technologies.
