Robots of the future

What does the future hold for space exploration?

Some robots are coded to โ€œlearnโ€ to that they can start to create their own code. This is very advanced AI, but at this stage is something under development but may be possible in the future.

Part of the great thing about robots though is the possibility of operating them remotely, so in a sense you are teleporting your presence to another place, and interacting with the environment there via your robot.  That is a kind of teleporting!

People have questioned whether robots will be able to create robots more intelligent than themselves and therefore is thereโ€™s any limit to infinite intelligence.  Well, it depends how we measure intelligence though. Being intelligent is not the same thing as being creative, or having common sense, or being innovative. Many people think we will always limit robots in some way so that we always stay the masters!
