Some thoughts on the evolution of robots in books
What distinguishes a machine from a robot?
Or a computer?
Perhaps we need a robot-like spectrum.
Contributing attributes might include complexity, autonomy, sentience, response to sensory input, intent, ...
The list of books seems to weigh heavily on the human form so phenotype must have some influence.
Does it need to be mechanical or could an organic structure be built? A virtual robot?
Nice article. Got me thinking a bit.
I love Alex + Ada!
It was a wonderful and quick read. I ended up finishing the first five volumes in one sitting!
