Foldimate’s laundry-folding machine actually works now
Back in 2018, Foldimate was one of two laundry-folding machines exhibiting at CES that promised to make folding clothes a thing of the past. It was up against Laundroid, a $16,000 AI-powered machine that was supposed to analyze each clothing item and figure out the best way to fold it using AI. Neither machine worked at the time— Foldimate’s model was a non-working prototype, and I accidentally broke the Laundroid when I confused the machine’s AI with a black T-shirt.

The research institute AI Now has identified facial recognition as a key challenge for society and policymakers—but is it too late?

I find it tough at times if the overall criticism is negative, but generally I approach it in a manner of it being a learning experience. If someone took the time to criticize, then I will take the time to see if I can learn from it. Of course the trolls are ignored :D

Wow, that was hard to read. I really do hope I am never ever in this situation, I feel terrible for anyone who has to live with the memory of that experience. Literally no amount of jail time will be as bad as that feeling for the rest of their lives.

As if we didn’t already have enough to worry about when it comes to artificially intelligent machines being able to perform many tasks faster and better than humans can, potentially stealing our jobs in the future, and presenting what some technologists worry is an existential threat to humanity, now it appears AI will soon be able to match humans at being, well, human, too.
