yes... The fluidic and elastomeric architectures required for function span several orders of magnitude from the microscale to the macroscale. Integrated design and rapid fabrication approach enables the programmable assembly of multiple materials within this architecture, laying the foundation for completely soft, autonomous robots....

Nature, 536(7617), 451-455.

I don’t know that version but a few decades later AI enhanced robots will be doing lots of things like surgical interventions, give talks, writing best seller books, teaching, fighting, willing to dominate human beings......

Capability of self improvements. Of course yes, we have this potential in ML technologies for AI. This is where even worry of leaders like Elon musk lies. There are libraries being built by several organizations which will enable this feature in machines.

Dear Dariusz,

Metamorphosis and the industrial revolution

The main tools necessary for this implementation of Industry 4.0 already exist: sensors, automata, big data, Internet of Things, cloud computing ... More than a technological revolution, the industry is rather akin to a complete reorganization mode of production with existing tools and giving greater importance to the network. This new generation of factories aims to boost the dynamism of the industry and move towards greater autonomy by generating intelligent tools such as autonomous robots. Finally this factory is a reality that looks like a sci-fi movie.
