to uncover just how far we&#8217;ve really come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ben is unashamedly unnerved by the tremendous rate that robots are evolving, whilst Danielle is welcoming them with open arms. To make sense of Ben&#8217;s fears and Danielle&#8217;s optimism, they set out to investigate the evolution of robots &#8211; treating them as if they are an emerging &#8216;species&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ben meets one of the most humanlike robots in the world &#8211; the disarmingly charming <a href=\"https:\/\/robots.ieee.org\/robots\/erica\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Erica (opens in a new tab)\">Erica<\/a> &#8211; who might be warm to the touch, but whose sense of humour falls decidedly flat. Their encounter seems weird enough until he meets her creator, who has made a robot twin of himself, and even has cosmetic enhancements to ensure they continue to look the same. He also finds out why it&#8217;s so difficult for robots to walk like us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This episode uncovers the roots with our obsession with robots in human form, with a visit to the fearsome <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Eric_(robot)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Eric (opens in a new tab)\">Eric<\/a> &#8211; the UK&#8217;s first robot &#8211; to unpack the deep distrust of robots inherent in western culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Danielle meets an early pioneer of robotic movement, who led the way for robots to take over the workplace, and ends up in a sea of robot arms, working in beautiful robotic harmony at a car plant. She also meets the latest breed of robots at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bostondynamics.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Boston Dynamics (opens in a new tab)\">Boston Dynamics<\/a>, who combine biology with technology.

The presenters come face to face with a whole range of creations &#8211; from one of the first talking robots, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Alpha (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/paleofuture.com\/search?q=alpha\" target=\"_blank\">Alpha<\/a>, a 1930s gun-toting womaniser; and the one-sided conversations with <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Siri\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Siri (opens in a new tab)\">Siri<\/a>; or <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Valkyrie (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/pt.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Valkyrie_(rob%C3%B4)\" target=\"_blank\">Valkyrie<\/a> &#8211; a heroic female robot designed to pave the way for us to set up home on Mars; to a little robot called <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Kirobo (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Kirobo\" target=\"_blank\">Kirobo<\/a> &#8211; designed to be a companion on the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"International Space Station (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/International_Space_Station\" target=\"_blank\">International Space Station<\/a>. Unbearably cute, Kirobo even has the body language off pat &#8211; turning and nodding as he speaks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ben visits the first attempt to make a robotic brain &#8211; a 1940s tortoise born in Bristol &#8211; with a rudimentary awareness of its surroundings, before meeting its most advanced descendant &#8211; the driverless car. Can Ben overcome his inherent fear of robots and put his trust in a robotic car enough take his hands off the wheel?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, we meet some astonishing robots who aren&#8217;t simply pre-programmed with facts about the world, they learn about it for themselves. The one-metre-high <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/ICub\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"iCub (opens in a new tab)\">iCub<\/a> not only looks like a child, but he learns like one. Just like a two-year-old he is learning to count on his fingers and is forming his own unique understanding of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As robots continue to evolve, Ben and Danielle consider the unsettling question of what it would mean if robots developed consciousness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First broadcast: 2<sup>nd<\/sup>\u00a0August 2017<br>Duration 58:47<\/p>\n<div class='GTTabsNavigation' style='display:none'><span class='GTTabs_nav_prev'><a href='#GTTabs_ul_15743' onClick='GTTabs_show(0,15743)'>&lt;&lt; Episode 1<\/a><\/span><\/div><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Episode 1Ben Garrod and Danielle George explore whether machines built to enhance our lives could become our greatest rivals.
