Robots are now able to reproduce without the assistance of humans, in a move that some say brings humans closer to obsoletion
The robots do not reproduce in the ‘romantic’ way (yet) – they instead construct their offspring in upgraded configurations.
Rt.com reports:
Instead, a ‘mother’ robot builds her own ‘children’ by constructing them in different configurations. But it’s not exactly motherly intuition prompting the mother to reproduce – she’s been programmed (by humans) to do so.
The mother, a simple-looking metal structure that moves swiftly and bends up and down as needed, works like a hand, constructing her children in different configurations. Those children consist of one to five plastic cubes with a motor inside.
In each of five experiments conducted by researchers in Cambridge and Zurich, the mother built and tested 10 generations of children. But unlike human mothers, she was able to change the children she didn’t approve of.
She used the information gathered from each generation to guide the production of the next one. This means the robots only got better and better.
The desirable traits were passed down through generations, in what can be described a robotic form of natural selection.
“Natural selection is basically reproduction, assessment, reproduction, assessment and so on,” said Dr. Fumiya Iida of Cambridge University, who led the research with colleagues at ETH University in Zurich, as quoted by Mail Online.
“That’s essentially what this robot is doing – we can actually watch the improvement and diversification of the species,” he added.
