Wondrous Robotic Futures (mini-ebook)

With the advent of deep neural networks, AI systems have become neurobiologically plausible models of intelligence. AI researchers and engineers now use a crude but effective metaphor for the human brain (and other animal brains) to accomplish complex, difficult, and economically valuable real-world tasks. In this mini-ebook, I argue that applying cutting-edge deep neural networks in real world robots is a key to unlocking economic comfort and prosperity for all humankind.
