Self-learning robots.
Researchers from AMOLF's Soft Robotic Matter group have shown small, autonomous, self-learning robots can adapt easily to changing circumstances. They connected a group of simple robots in a line, after which each individual robot taught itself to move forward as quickly as possible.
The results are available in PNAS: https://www.pnas.org/content/118/21/e2017015118/tab-article-info

Continuous learning of emergent behavior in robotic matter
In the last century, robots have been revolutionizing our lives, augmenting human actions with greater precision and repeatability. Unfortunately, most robotic systems can only operate in controlled environments. While increasing the complexity of the centralized…
