EVOLVING MOLECULAR BOTS. "Nanotechnologists ... see the future of intelligent machines at the level of molecules: tiny robots that evolve and ... come together to form intelligent superorganisms. Perhaps the future of artificial intelligence will be both silicon- and carbon-based: digital brains directing complex molecular structures to copulate at the nanometre level and reproduce." Robotic swarming superorganisms. https://lnkd.in/dhAg_hD View in LinkedIn

UNIVERSAL CONSTRUCTOR. "Self-replicating machines have been around, at least in theory, for decades. In 1949, the mathematician John von Neumann showed how a machine could replicate itself. He called it the “universal constructor” because the machine was both an active component of the construction and the target of the copying process." https://lnkd.in/dhAg_hD View in LinkedIn

AUTONOMOUS ROBOTS. "Ultimately, the question whether self-reproducing robots will evolve or not boils down to the capability of artificial intelligence systems to self-improve. Only then could the “brains” of the robotic factory build evolved robots without the need of human designers. It’s already happening." https://lnkd.in/dhAg_hD View in LinkedIn

ROBOTS THAT REPLICATE AND EVOLVE. "By supplying and removing ‘fuel strands’ that drive strand pairing and unpairing, it is possible to make molecular-scale machines that move, such as DNA ‘walkers’ that stride along guide strands. Eventually such DNA systems might be given the ability to replicate and evolve." https://lnkd.in/dDwjZMg View in LinkedIn

DNA BASED ROBOTS. "Nature programs its cellular matter partly by the instructions inherited in the DNA of the genome. But by exploiting the same chemical language of the genes ... researchers have been able to make DNA itself a kind of programmable material, designed to assemble into specific shapes and patterns." https://lnkd.in/dDwjZMg View in LinkedIn
