CHARLELIE : Hi everybody, it’s 10 o’clock sooooo welcome back in Rage Against the Robot on Delta’FM, the emission which talks about the evolution of robots in the society ! Today, I am not alone. I am with two french scientists, Dr Jeremstar, who works in the Artificial Intelligence. Hi !

PIERRE-LOUIS : Hello.

CHARLELIE : Hahaha, and we have Dr. Joestar, a scientist who is interested in exoskeletons.

PAUL : It’s a pleasure to be here.

CHARLELIE : You are totally welcome ! And today we will talk about the AI, then we’ll talk about exoskeletons, and we will hear the opinion of a listener about those two subjects. So now, let’s hear Dr. Jeremstar who describes the AI !

PIERRE-LOUIS : Firstly, what is the AI ? It’s a form of intelligence which is Artificial, like if machines could think. It is about a century of existence and Artificial Intelligence has considerably evolved. It evolved so well that during an interview at the BBC, the very famous astrophysician Stephen Hawking was afraid, that humans wouldn’t be able to challenge AI.

CHARLELIE : So you mean that in a few years, robots will take control of the world ?

PIERRE-LOUIS : Well, if we listen to specialists, science is far, very far from creating machines that are more intelligent than human Beings. Artificial Intelligence is more present in our homes, Google Home for example can be taken as a proof of the need of technology in nowadays society. Robotics have done real impressive progress those last years.

CHARLELIE : Thank you very much for all those informations ! Now, we are going to learn some things about exoskeletons ! Welcome back Dr Joestar !

PAUL : Thank you. So, an exoskeleton is an extern skeleton made of steal. It gives a huge power to the holder. It can be useful to disabled people and help them to carry out everyday tasks.  In 2016, army developed with Bionic Power an exoskeleton that can produce energy with leg’s movement. So, it can work without battery, only using leg’s movement.

CHARLELIE : Now we are going to hear about Mr Gobelet, our listener, interviewed by Mr Joestar.

– PAUL + HUGO RECORDING –

CHARLELIE : Thanks to both of you, and thanks to Dr Jeremstar. Now is the time to close this emission. Thank you very much for listening, and see ya later iiiiinnn… Rage against the Robot !

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Is the Artificial Intelligence the future ?

After about a century of existence, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has considerably evolved. It evolved that well that while an interview at the BBC, the very famous astrophysician Stephen Hawking was affraid, that humans won’t be able to rivalize with AI.

But, if we listen to specialists, science is far, very far from create machines more intelligents that human Being. Artificial Intelligence is more present in our houses, Google Home for example can be taken as a proof of the need of technology in actual society. Robotics have done real impressive progress those lasts years.

Awful Button Game (PL et Charlélie)

Posted on by

This game is called the ‘Awful Button Game’ (1st version). (This game will continue to be developed)

The purpose of this game is really simple: try to beat your score (timer), by clicking on start. There is only one image of the sprite, but actually there are 4 sprites, with different line codes.

 

 

 

The first one is made to begin the game, even though it is laughing at you because you will not be able to click it on the first time.

 

 

 

The second one is made as a break between the first and the second timer.

 

 

The third is based on an random algorithm which is making the sprite glide to a position based on the orthonormal system.

 

The fourth is telling you what are your two timers and tells you to try the game again.

We had some problems with the ‘random algorithm’ because we didn’t know how to code the fact that the sprite must move between two defined positions. We actually coded every position at the beginning, but we found the ‘pick random .. and .. ‘ block.

We also had some problems with the timer, like it was a specific block, so we didn’t know how to use it. We finally understood that we needed to use variables.

(I know this game is quite short, but with Pierre Louis’ absences and mine, we couldn’t code a really great game)
