Pre-Publication V2. Combining computer science, engineering, and technology to design, construct, and utilize automated, programmable machines often utilizing artificial intelligence intelligent systems that are intended to can replicate or substitute sophisticated human bodily-kinesthetic intelligence actions and decision-making to execute complex physical tasks, including but not limited to such as operating cameras, performing stunts, and bringing physical characters to life. When integrated with AI, robots can perceive their surroundings, make decisions, and adapt to new situations without explicit programming for every scenario, using techniques like computer vision, machine learning, and reinforcement learning.
Deliberation Summary:
(1) Consider qualifying the definition to relate to AI, as the term is much broader otherwise. (2) Consider naming the human capability machines replicate as bodily-kinesthetic intelligence, on the view that the undervaluing of movement as a cultivated skill contributes to the erasure of movement performers. (3) Definition should describe what machines are able to do with more clarity.
