AI is part and parcel of Robots
Not wanting another discussion on the current crisis, but I wonder how many other new uses for existing pharmaceuticals are out there?
AI discovered an old arthritis drug that can help elderly people survive COVID-19.
" The company used its AI software to comb through scientific literature for drugs that might block the infection process. The most promising treatment it discovered was baricitinib, which it predicted could stop the infection from entering lung cells. "

The AI equivalent of a marine worm or other primitive nematode. Sharks, T-Rexes, tigers, bears, and even worse apes just around the corner.
Every time I disobey my guidance I make it a point of saying outloud "Honey, I think we should turn left like nice robot lady says. OK, if you are SURE you know the way better, but I still think the left turn was best. See. noew YOU are making HER RECALCULATE ".

Magnetic Spray Creates Robots ?!?
"Medical researchers led by Dr. Shen Yajing from City University of Hong Kong (CityU) don't wish to alarm you but they've just devised a simple method of making millirobots which can be employed in various biomedical applications like targeted drug delivery and catheter navigation.
"As a result of the coated substance and driven by the corresponding magnetic field, these minuscule objects gain the ability to crawl, walk, creep, or roll along surfaces, in the future perhaps even inside the body.
There is video at the link

Salesforce is an unlikely source for medical study, right?

" In an effort to address this, Salesforce researchers developed an algorithm — the aforementioned ReceptorNet — that can predict hormone-receptor status from inexpensive and ubiquitous images of tissue. "
Visual - that is an exam of a photo - rather than tests by pathologists. This could be like a first exam or triage -- You are then selected for the second level of testing.

" Whether they were genuine robots is debatable. Like the remotely piloted Predator unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), the vessels may have had autonomous capabilities, but they also had a human involved.
"However, the next generation of unmanned vessels will come close to having autonomous warfighting capability. "
