MORE CAPABLE: A Robotics Podcast

In a word, robots are AWESOME. But beyond all the cute bloops, silly bleeps and the irrational fear that they’ll take over humanity someday, the field of robotics sits at the intersection of dreams and practical applications. On MORE CAPABLE, a 3-part limited-release robotics podcast, we discuss how the business and innovations that drive robotics overlap and often conflict with popular imagination. And if the millions of Roombas in homes around the world have taught us one thing, it’s that the goal of robotics isn’t to replace humanity – it's to make human life more livable. So we spoke with some of the most important voices in robotics today to get a pulse on the current state of assistive robotic technologies and the future of their medical applications. Because better tools enhance the overall experience of life and it’s the relationship we create and embrace with robots that let us focus on being less task-driven and more human. And if we can replace the fear of singularity with the reality of multiplicity – we'll see that a world with robots is better than one without. Because somewhere near the crossroads of human problems and robotic solutions, the field of robotics makes us all MORE CAPABLE.
