SiFAB, a scalable proprietary silicon anode battery technology demonstrated in a number of applications, including electric vehicles, power tools, smartphones, personal computers, medical devices and aviation, can deliver up to a 20% increase in gravimetric energy density in lithium-ion batteries versus cells using a graphite anode.

What is or is not called a robot is an ongoing debate that most roboticists seem to try to avoid, but personally, I appreciate the idea that very broadly, a robot is something that seems alive but isn’t—something with independent embodied intelligence. They were not a celebration of mechanical engineering. Published by The MIT Press.

Yes, I am well aware that the computational theory of mind is a deeply entrenched one, starting with the work in the early 1940s of Warren McCulloch and Walter Pitts in Chicago, and then later at MIT, where they were joined by Jerome Lettvin and Humberto Maturana. A person with Alzheimer's always has clumps of plaque in the brain.

Networks that link personal computers in offices. One of the first decisions Pake in turn made was to hire, among others, Robert Taylor, then at the University of Utah , to help him recruit engineers and scientists for the Computer Science and Systems Science Laboratories. If it was a personal computer, you had to be able to build 100.”

But these engineers and programmers largely shared the same point of view. The type of computing they envisioned was thoroughly interactive and personal, comprehensively networked, and completely graphical—with high-resolution screens and high-quality print output. This vision wasn’t entirely new or limited to Xerox PARC.

Quantum simulation of ecosystems is another, says Seth Lloyd , a quantum physicist at MIT. They’d been able to do it only because millions of people believed that in dismantling Mercury E and turning it into a sun-powered F quantum computer G there would be enough computing power for every living person to upload their consciousness into it.
