Men trust robots more when driving compared to women. Men want a robot to take care of children and perform personal tasks 2 times more than women. About 62% of men aged 18-22 would like a robot to help them with everyday tasks such as brushing their teeth, compared to 31% among women
The increasing reports about the increasing presence of robots in our lives sometimes make us ask what's next? We already have a robot that cleans the floor, a robot that is a voice assistant, so what about a robot that brushes our teeth? Or a robot that will change our baby's diaper or give him medicine when we are sick? Imagine that your robot is very similar to a human, maybe even someone you know, and it is programmed to do everything you ask it to do? What other actions would you be willing for the robot to do for you?
A new survey conducted by the survey company "Sample" ahead of the innovation conference iNNOVEX2018 which will be held on February 7, presents fascinating findings with gender and age gaps. The survey was conducted among 502 respondents aged 18-70.
In the approaching era of autonomous vehicles, it seems that humans are beginning to trust robots more as drivers. About 36% of the participants in the survey agreed to entrust their lives - and driving a car - to robots, with men trusting the robot to replace them in driving more than women (39% compared to 34% respectively). The younger generation trusts the robots even more as a driver replacement with 46% ready to adopt a robot driver among the 23-29 year olds.
The findings show, for example, that 62% of men aged 18-22 would be interested in having a robot perform personal daily tasks for them, such as brushing their teeth, whereas only about 31% of women in the same age range would agree to this. 46% of young people aged 18-22 want a robot to perform personal tasks for them compared to 26.5% aged 23 to 49 and 7.6% aged 50-70.
Regarding the transfer of the care of the children to a robot, most of the respondents are still reluctant to leave their loved ones in the hands of robots, but even here the men are more open to robotic assistance. Over 10% of the men were willing to have a robot take care of their children and perform actions for them such as changing diapers compared to only about 5% of the women. When broken down by age group, it appears again that young people trust robots much more than adults. 15.5% in the 18-29 age group are ready to let a robot take care of the baby compared to 5.6% in the 30-49 age group and only 3.2% in the 50-70 age group.
To the question of whether you would be willing to develop a friendly relationship with a humanoid robot, 6.6% of all respondents answered in the affirmative, when the distribution according to the age groups was as follows: about 13% of the young people aged 18-29 answered the question in the affirmative, 3.1% of those aged 30-49 and 5.1% of people in the 50-70 age group. This is the only question in the survey in which adults aged 50-70 answered positively that they wanted to be near the robots more than age groups below them.
When broken down by gender, it is clear that men are more interested in the assistance of robots. About 58% of the women are not interested in the assistance of robots and only 40% of the men replied that they would give up the services of robots. The older population (50-70) will more easily give up assistance from a robot: 65% of the respondents aged 50-70 answered that they would give up the services of a robot compared to only 36% of the younger ones.
The innovation conference Innovex2018 will be held this year on February 7, at the AVENUE conference center at Kiryat Airport. The conference will deal with a variety of issues related to the technological innovation essential to the development of any business company in a knowledge-intensive industry. Dozens of managers and innovation experts from all over the world will participate in the conference which is expected to present a series of technological innovations that will affect our lives in the near future.

Last but not least, there are tens of thousands of worthy scientists in the field. To reduce to five bachelorettes is excessive.
The representation of the Jewish genius at the science summit of the intelligence:
Joshua Bengio, David Silver, Oli Aaron Courville, Naftali Tashvi, Alex Krichevsky. For a people that is 0.2% of humanity,
When at the top there are 10-20 top scientists. 5 top Jewish scientists, it is not racist to say they are 25% to 50% of this top.
But at the same time it is worth noting that the Arabs and in particular the Iranians are top researchers in the field. Just look at who is the CTO and CEO of DEEP MIND.
The five biggest in the field:
Jan LeCun, Jeffrey Hinton, Joshua Bengio, Ian Judfellow and most importantly - the one who made the breakthrough Alex Krichevsky.
Alex is probably a genius, somehow he is less known than the previous ones.
As mentioned, the mathematics is stunning in its complexity. It's time for a Nobel in artificial intelligence. It doesn't make sense that in physics it does
And with artificial intelligence that did not exist in Alfred Nobel's time, no. And it's not covered by the Fields Medal.
They are too busy there with manifold theory, number theory. But artificial intelligence affects our lives just as much.
What's nice is that everything is open. On the one hand - mediocre researchers will be mediocre. On the other hand, bold - there is an opening for progress.
It is possible to write down: about two thirds are not ready.
The truth: from what I learned at university, after overcoming the difficulties, the robot will do the job better than us.
There are robots called reinforcement learning combined with deep learning
that the deep mind team at Google is developing, we have a distinguished representative there named David Silver, a Jew from England, but an important one
To note that the CTO, and the CEO are there, well - these developments do the job better than a human.
The mathematics there is stunning in its complexity, open to new theoretical advances by researchers, and another part
Non-mathematical engineering - just as complex. In addition, I recently implemented such a project for the first time in my life, and the amount of difficulties
in which I encountered a lot of technology. The secret is to learn all the difficulties the hard way and progress to the point where operation in an artificial intelligence environment is easy.
And one more thing: the Iranians, and the Arabs in general, are cannons in the field of artificial intelligence, and this is a sign for anyone who brags about
The stupidity of our cousins. on the contrary. Iranians are in start-ups in the West, in the best universities in the world: Princeton, Stanford, Cambridge in England, in Toronto - the capital city of AI, where Jeffrey Hinton and Joshua Bengio live.
