A panel of experts will debate whether “AI needs a body?” Are there any benefits, what are the differences with virtual AI, how difficult is it and how can we make progress in science and technology development?
If you would believe the media, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere and it will change our world in the near future. This is perhaps already the case in the digital world and inside many different systems such as our cars, logistics, medical devices and many more. However, most AI has not yet a face or a body and it is mostly a “hidden” system that is difficult to relate to for people.
