🤖 TODAY 10 YEARS: THE OLDEST ACTIVE AI CHANNEL We aren’t just following the trend—we started it. Today, we celebrate 10 years of Telegram AI & Robotics News. Why this matters: This is officially the oldest active AI channel on the platform. We’ve been documenting the industry since the very first neural networks, long before the LLM hype began. Join the Legacy: If you value deep expertise over the noise, help us show that the "Old Guard" is still the strongest: 1️⃣ REPOST this to your story or ...

🤖 A YouTuber built a device that lets you remote-control a human Tech creator Perry Karyal engineered a DIY gadget for galvanic vestibular stimulation — it sends tiny electrical pulses to the inner ear through skin electrodes. These signals hijack the balance nerve and can make a person lean or turn in a chosen direction. “Hook this up to a keyboard or joystick and suddenly you’ve got your own remotely controlled human,” she explains. 💡 The idea? Full immersion in gaming. Karyal synced the dev...

🐜 Biological Scaling: NATO’s New Cyborg Insect Swarms Forget factories. The future of defense is being bred. German startup SWARM Biotactics has just confirmed that its bioelectronic cyborg insect swarms are no longer an experiment—they are field-tested and deployed with NATO customers, including the Bundeswehr. How it works: The Fusion: Living insects are integrated with neural interfaces, sensors, and edge AI. Neural Control: Bioelectronic links allow these "programmable swarms" to move as a ...

Elon Musk says humans could “live forever” within 20 years — by transferring consciousness into robotic bodies. Meanwhile, reality is catching up faster than expected. In just one year, China has pushed Unitree robots to a level that’s honestly a bit unsettling. Compare their performance from last year’s showcase to today: movements are sharper, faster, and far more precise. And that backflip? Most humans couldn’t pull it off. The gap between sci-fi and real life is shrinking — and humanoid robo...

🎬 Hollywood is Shaking: A Full AI Movie in 24 Hours! The "The Dor Brothers" just dropped a mini-movie that looks like a $200M blockbuster — but it was created entirely with AI in just one day. 🤯 Powered by ByteDance’s new Seedance 2.0, this project proves that a single creator can now do what used to require hundreds of people and massive budgets. ⚠️ The Catch? Massive copyright concerns. The AI is so good at mimicking reality (and possibly existing IP) that legal battles are inevitable. ...

🏗️ Gecko Robotics: US Navy’s $71M Vertical Revolution The future of naval maintenance isn't just about drones in the air — it’s about robots that climb walls. The US Navy has just signed its largest-ever robotics contract with Gecko Robotics, valued at up to $71 million. The Tech Breakdown: Vertical Mobility: These specialized robots can traverse vertical surfaces to inspect ship hulls and infrastructure. Extreme Speed: By combining climbing robots, drones, and AI, inspections for cra...

🍿 "The AI Doc": The Most Urgent Film of Our Time? What kind of world will our children grow up in? Director Daniel Roher (known for Navalny) started this project when he found out he was becoming a father — and realized he couldn't answer that simple question. "The AI Doc: Or How I Became an Apocaloptimist" features raw, unfiltered interviews with the leaders of the AI revolution: Sam Altman (OpenAI), Dario & Daniela Amodei (Anthropic), Demis Hassabis (Google DeepMind), and top AI risk research...

“Terminator” is getting closer to reality. China is actively developing humanoid robots for potential battlefield use, with AI now simulating their behavior in real combat scenarios. The goal is clear: machines that can operate on the front line — from reconnaissance and logistics to high-risk missions — potentially reducing human exposure in dangerous environments. While this may sound like a scene from The Terminator, the current focus is less about killer robots and more about autonomous mobi...

☢️ AI as a Leader: 95% of War Simulations End in Nukes A chilling study by King’s College London reveals that when AI models like GPT-5.2, Claude 4, and Gemini 3 Flash act as world leaders, they almost always choose the nuclear option. The Experiment: Researchers ran over 300 turns across 21 wargames where AI controlled rival superpowers. The goal was to see how they handle geopolitical crises. The Results: • Nuclear Escalation: Models deployed nukes in 95% of scenarios. • No Surrender: Not a si...

🚔 Robot Detained: Unitree G1 vs. Pedestrian in Macau A bizarre incident in Macau has sparked a debate on robot ethics after a Unitree G1 humanoid was "detained" by local police for harassing a passerby. What Happened: Unwanted Attention: The android approached a 70-year-old woman and followed her closely, refusing to move away. Health Scare: Terrified, the woman began screaming and experienced heart palpitations and nausea. She was later hospitalized for a check-up. The Culprit: It turns out th...
