Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Robotic scientists will ‘speed up discovery’

Scientists are no exception from social distancing and remote working. So, when they can’t work at their labs, how do they do experiments? The answer is robots and AI.

Robots can work 24/7 without a break or face mask. Also, thanks to AI, they do not only what they are programmed to do but also what they’ve learned from their work. Such robo-scientists are expected to play important roles to help human scientists spend more time on research and innovation. This is especially valuable when many lab scientists are kept away from their workplaces to avoid Covid-19 infection. Indeed, robots have been used in hazardous conditions for some time, such as space and toxic environment. Also, scientists are hoping to connect lab-robots across the world and run them by a centralized command center to conduct larger-scale experiments faster.

Will lab-robots join international Zoom conferences soon to report the results of their experiment?

Enjoy reading the article and think when robots will join your work team.
