Surpassing the biological limitations of the brain and using one’s mind to interact with and control external electronic devices may sound like the distant cyborg future, but it could come sooner than we think. Researchers warn of the potential social, ethical, and legal consequences of technologies interacting heavily with human brains.

Automation in HR: Robotisation without losing sight of the human dimension
Although automation and robotisation are emerging in Human Resources (HR), the conversation that took place during CIOnet’s webinar on the future of work was mostly about people. ‘Automation in HR is about harnessing talent without losing the people-focused dimension,’ one of the panellists said. But what that will look like differs from company to company. ‘That is also what makes our profession so interesting.’

Report: SAS Open D[N]A Café with RoboValley focusing on Symbiotic Robotics
The key theme of SAS Open D[N]A Café on March 4 was symbiotic robotics, the interaction between humans and robots. The host of this café, Arthur de Crook, interviewed Jaimy Siebel and Joost van de Loo of RoboValley, the thriving robotics community driven by TU Delft Robotics Institute. RoboValley aims to stimulate the development of intelligent robotics by furthering collaboration between industry, government and academia. Here are some takeaways.

Computer scientists: ‘We wouldn’t be able to control super intelligent machines’
Using theoretical calculations, an international team of researchers, including scientists from the Center for Humans and Machines at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development, shows that it would not be possible to control a superintelligent AI. The study was published in the Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research.

‘The robot made me do it’: Robots encourage risk-taking behaviour in people
New research has shown robots can encourage people to take greater risks in a simulated gambling scenario than they would if there was nothing to influence their behaviours. Increasing our understanding of whether robots can affect risk-taking could have clear ethical, practiCal and policy implications, which this study set out to explore.

Research: eye contact achieves smooth interaction between humans and robots
According to a new study by Tampere University in Finland, making eye contact with a robot may have the same effect on people as eye contact with another person. The results predict that interaction between humans and humanoid robots will be surprisingly smooth.

Get the robot out of the human, is the credo of Asher Lake’s KLM Automation Center of Excellence. But what do the employees themselves think about working with their digital colleagues from UiPath? In this report we interview KLM employees from a wide range of disciplines. “Instead of the expected 20,000 mutations, it saves us 40,000. And the robot was there in six months, “and” The robot saves me an hour of work a day. “
