Robotics creates the possibility of using robots to assist humans in several tasks, especially in hostile environments to humans. In order to cope with different types of environments, it is of great importance that robots are adaptable to the environment in which they operate. So, this study aimed is to develop a prototype of a humanoid robot by 3D printing as close as possible to the human being. The prototype will be used as the cradle of tests and thus will advance the most diverse techniques in robotics and artificial intelligence.

The path is traced from folklore, mythological and fantastic dreams of the human being to modern scientific technologies – helpers to humans in all spheres of their activity. Particular attention is paid to cybernetic achievement and a variety of social networks. Numerous functions of already existing robots and their different types are listed. A brief excursion is traced in an attempt to create artificial intelligence. Certain difficulties in solving the problem of emotive lacunarity are emphasized. The article analyzes artistic images of artificial intelligence in the variety of their types and subypes, including human-like ones. The problem of emotionalization of artificial intelligence is raised, and ways of their theoretical and applied solution are proposed. Robot – programmers are supposed to master the latest achievements in emotiology and emotive linguoecology in order to reproduce adequate roboto sentiens. The possibility of a cyber rebellion in a single combat between a robot and a human is touched upon as a warning to scientists about the repeated tragic outcomes of nanotechnology.


An artificial nose (e-nose) is a multipotential electronic device, based on various sensors with the ability to recognize different odours, in the same way that the human olfactory sense does. An updated e-nose system will allow us to detect different oncological and/or degenerative diseases of the human being that today are diagnosed late. Other options would include providing specific information on the quality and condition of food, analysing and detecting the degree of environmental pollution, analysing perfumes and their essences, determining the composition and characteristics of certain beverages such as wine, tea, oil, cocoa and other products. The application of new technologies, such as artificial intelligence and nanotechnology, make it easier to distinguish many different odours in less time. In this paper, we have made a current investigation of the different types of e-nose existing today. Aim of the study Currently nanotechnology, artificial intelligence and computer science are tools that have revolutionary possibilities for the construction of a new e-nose device and progress over the current scopes. If we manage to unite the advantages provided by each of these new technologies that we have mentioned, we will be able to build a very useful device applicable in various fields such as health, food and beverage industry, perfumes and environment. Therefore, the objectives we have in this study are the following: To learn where artificial nose technology stands and what has been developed so far. Based on these findings, ask ourselves the following question: Is it possible to achieve an effective functioning or is it an unreachable project? To compile the majority of scientific articles published mainly in the last 10 years with examples of the use that has been made of artificial noses in the measurement of volatile compounds in the different fields mentioned. In the same way to gather the information published in the last years in relation to the usefulness, existence in the market and purposes of equipment that can measure the olfaction in the human being, what we will call the Smell-o-meter or olfactometer for human use. Material and Methods In the first part of this research we will gather most of the information existing so far in the international bibliography, as well as the achievements and utilities obtained to date. Following we will analyse all the new concepts related to e-nose devices that exist on sensors, gas chromatography, nanotechnology application, electronic engineering, materials and techniques as preliminary ideas for the development of the devices.

All the time, innovative and new technologies continue to be developed. This forces anyone involved in the logistics industry to adapt so as not to be left behind and experience adverse effects. With the 4.0 industrial revolution, now many companies are starting to implement digitalization in their logistics activities. There are five main technologies that must be considered in the 4.0 Industrial Revolution, namely Artificial Intelligence (AI), Internet of Things (IoT), Wearable Technology (WT), Advanced Robotic (AR) and 3D Printing (3DP). This research was conducted to explore the benefits and impacts of digitizing the logistics process in the Industrial 4.0 era by examining it from various sources. The results showed that the use of technology for digitizing logistics provided many benefits both for individuals and for corporate organizations. The stakeholders are expected to be able to work together adequately to ensure the technology present in the Industrial 4.0 era provides the benefits that are expected.

This article elucidates the meaning of intelligence in machines. It employs hermeneutic-phenomenology and cybernetics. Its point of departure is Melanie Mitchell’s Artificial Intelligence: A Guide for Thinking Humans (2019). It (1) reviews the different types of machine intelligence (MI) Mitchell describes and the understanding of intelligence she suggests is common among MI researchers and developers, (2) hermeneutic-phenomenologically exhibits the intelligence of Da-sein (t/here-being, human being as such), (3) discerns the intelligence of machines cybernetically in contrast to the intelligence of Da-sein rendered hermeneutic-phenomenologically, and (4) assesses the MI industry’s goal of producing ‘general human-level’ intelligence in machines.

The subject of the research is the introduction of artificial intelligence as a technological innovation into the Russian economic development. The relevance of the problem is due to the fact that the Russian market of artificial intelligence is still in the infancy and the necessity to bridge the current technological gap between Russia and the leading economies of the world is coming to the forefront. The financial sector, the manufacturing industry and the retail trade are the drivers of the artificial intelligence development. However, company managers in Russia are not prepared for the practical application of expensive artificial intelligence technologies. Under these circumstances, the challenge is to develop measures to support high-tech projects of small and medium-sized businesses, given that the technological innovation considered can accelerate the development of the Russian economy in the energy sector fully or partially controlled by the government as well as in the military-industrial complex and the judicial system.The purposes of the research were to examine the current state of technological innovations in the field of artificial intelligence in the leading countries and Russia and develop proposals for improving the AI application in the Russian practices.The paper concludes that the artificial intelligence is a breakthrough technology with a great application potential. Active promotion of the artificial intelligence in companies significantly increases their efficiency, competitiveness, develops industry markets, stimulates introduction of new technologies, improves product quality and scales up manufacturing. In general, the artificial intelligence gives a new impetus to the development of Russia and facilitates its entry into the five largest world’s economies.

New technologies like artificial intelligence, robotics, machine intelligence, and the Internet of Things are seeing repetitive tasks move away from humans to machines. Humans cannot become machines, but machines can become more human-like. The traditional model of educating workers for the workforce is fast becoming irrelevant. There is a massive need for the retooling of human workers. Humans need to be trained to remain focused in a society which is constantly getting bombarded with information. The two basic elements of physical and mental capacity are slowly being taken over by machines and artificial intelligence. This changes the fundamental role of the global workforce.


This book is the first to examine the history of imaginative thinking about intelligent machines. As real artificial intelligence (AI) begins to touch on all aspects of our lives, this long narrative history shapes how the technology is developed, deployed, and regulated. It is therefore a crucial social and ethical issue. Part I of this book provides a historical overview from ancient Greece to the start of modernity. These chapters explore the revealing prehistory of key concerns of contemporary AI discourse, from the nature of mind and creativity to issues of power and rights, from the tension between fascination and ambivalence to investigations into artificial voices and technophobia. Part II focuses on the twentieth and twenty-first centuries in which a greater density of narratives emerged alongside rapid developments in AI technology. These chapters reveal not only how AI narratives have consistently been entangled with the emergence of real robotics and AI, but also how they offer a rich source of insight into how we might live with these revolutionary machines. Through their close textual engagements, these chapters explore the relationship between imaginative narratives and contemporary debates about AI’s social, ethical, and philosophical consequences, including questions of dehumanization, automation, anthropomorphization, cybernetics, cyberpunk, immortality, slavery, and governance. The contributions, from leading humanities and social science scholars, show that narratives about AI offer a crucial epistemic site for exploring contemporary debates about these powerful new technologies.

AbstractCan Artificial Intelligence (AI) be more effective than human instruction for the moral enhancement of people? The author argues that it only would be if the use of this technology were aimed at increasing the individual's capacity to reflectively decide for themselves, rather than at directly influencing behaviour. To support this, it is shown how a disregard for personal autonomy, in particular, invalidates the main proposals for applying new technologies, both biomedical and AI-based, to moral enhancement. As an alternative to these proposals, this article proposes a virtual assistant that, through dialogue, neutrality and virtual reality technologies, can teach users to make better moral decisions on their own. The author concludes that, as long as certain precautions are taken in its design, such an assistant could do this better than a human instructor adopting the same educational methodology.
