Researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, working with Unitree Robotics, have demonstrated the world’s first full-size humanoid robot that can autonomously play interactive basketball with a human. Using HKUST’s SkillMimic framework, a CVPR 2025 highlight led by PhD student Yinhuai Wang, the Unitree H1 can dribble, shoot, pass, and react to blocks by learning directly from human demonstrations. The robot is still tethered for power and moves cautiously, but all actions a

🤖A team of Purdue University students has shattered the Guinness World Record for the fastest Rubik’s Cube solve by a robot. Their creation, dubbed “Purdubik’s Cube,” completed the puzzle in a lightning-fast 0.103 seconds—nearly three times quicker than the previous record of 0.305 seconds set by Mitsubishi Electric in 2024. The robot employs machine vision, custom algorithms, and industrial-grade motion control to achieve sub-millisecond precision. The project was born from Purdue’s Cooperativ

👀 AI pioneer Ilya Sutskever received an honorary Doctor of Science from the University of Toronto, his alma mater. In his June 6, 2025, convocation address, Sutskever warned graduates they are living in “the most unusual time ever” due to artificial intelligence. He argued that since the brain is a “biological computer,” AI will inevitably become capable of all human tasks, calling it “the greatest challenge of humanity ever.” The former OpenAI chief scientist urged the new alumni to pay close

Meta is developing a wristband that lets users control phones and computers by detecting the intention to move — even if no physical motion occurs. Built in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University, the device uses surface electromyography (sEMG) to read electrical signals from forearm muscles triggered by motor intent. Advanced AI then translates these tiny nerve signals into digital commands like moving a cursor, clicking, typing, or drawing in the air. The technology aims to provide hand

At Pace University's May 2025 commencement, AI technology was employed to announce graduates' names. Students submitted phonetic spellings online, allowing the system to generate audio previews for review. While some appreciated the effort to ensure correct pronunciations, others felt the approach lacked the personal touch of a human announcer. This practice is part of a broader trend, with institutions like the University of Georgia and Georgia Tech using similar AI tools to enhance ceremony ef

👀 China hosted its first fully autonomous humanoid robot football match in Beijing, featuring four university teams competing in a 3-on-3 tournament. The AI-powered robots, developed by Booster Robotics, struggled with basic coordination—frequently falling, missing kicks, and even requiring stretchers. Despite the clumsy display, experts like Prof. Subramanian Ramamoorthy noted the steady annual progress in humanoid robotics. Cheng Hao, Booster’s CEO, sees sports as a key testing ground, with h

Neuralink’s CONVOY study has enabled ALS patient Nick Wray, the eighth person implanted since July 2025, to control a robotic arm through his neural signals. Early results show natural, coordinated movements, marking a leap beyond digital cursor control, though long-term safety trials continue under FDA oversight. Source: Nick Wray | The Rundown

A military university in China's Hunan province has unveiled a mosquito-sized drone designed for battlefield surveillance and stealth missions. Developed by the National University of Defense Technology, the micro-robot weighs under 0.2 grams and measures just 2 cm in length, making it nearly invisible during use. The drone was showcased in a June 14 report by China Central Television, where researchers emphasized its potential for reconnaissance in confined or high-risk environments. While expe
