Black box AI: The AI program that is not able to explain decisions.
Responsible AI: An AI system that is explainable, monitorable, reproducible, secure, human-cantered, unbiased and justifiable.
Faceswap video blackmailing: Blackmailing people with morphed images and/or videos.
Ethical AI system: An AI system that solves a particular problem, uses unbiased data and is trained using the right learning model for the problem and is monitored to evaluate if the results produced by it are right and fair.
Robotics: The study focused on designing, developing and programming physical robots which are able to interact with the physical world and automate one or more tasks.
Humanoid Robots: Robots that look like or mimic human behaviour and usually perform human-like activities (like walking, carrying objects). Example, Hanson Robotics’ Sophia and Boston Dynamics’ Atlas.
Autonomous Robots: Robots that operate independently of human operators and are usually designed to perform tasks in open environments without any human supervision.
Teleoperated Robots: Semi-autonomous bots that use a wireless network to enable human control from a safe distance. They are usually deployed in extreme geographical conditions, weather and circumstances.
Augmenting Robots: Also known as VR robots, they are used to enhance or replace current human capabilities.
Independent robots: Robots that are deployed to replace humans for performing dangerous, mundane or otherwise impossible tasks.
Dependent Robots: Robots that are non-autonomous as they interact with humans to perform their actions.
Bots: Also known as software robotics, they are computer programs that perform tasks autonomously.
Chatbot: A computer program that simulates conversation both online and over the phone and is often used in customer service scenarios.
Sensors: Devices that detect the events or changes in the environment and send data to the computer processor.
Actuators: The motor parts that facilitates a robot’s movement.
End Effectors: The physical, typically external components of a robot that facilitates it to complete a task. For example, in factories, robots have interchangeable tools like paint sprayers, gripping claws or even hands for undertaking tasks.
Cognition: The capability of a system to make purposeful decision and execute them to achieve its highest-order goals.
Trajectory planning: Moving from point A to point B while avoiding collisions over time in a 2D or 3D space.
Generative adversarial network (GAN): A machine learning (ML) model in which two neural networks compete with each other to become more accurate in their predictions.
Neuromorphic computing: A technique in which a computer (both hardware and software) is modelled based on the architecture of the human brain and its nervous system.
