Boston Dynamics 的 Atlas 機器人會跳霹靂舞了
在機器人公司中，Boston Dynamics 最特出之處，就是他們會在 YouTube 上炫耀機器人最新的能力，並且多年來為我們帶來了許多令人印象深刻的影片。今天他們又帶來了最新的 Atlas 機器人技術展示，其動作明顯比先前更加流暢，也更像真人。
Atlas 展示了幾種類型的全身運動，從走路開始，進階到跑步、爬行、翻筋斗，甚至還來了一小段霹靂舞。最特別的是，這些動作不單純是靠感應器和計算來進行，而是有用到強化學習（Reinforcement Learning）的機器學習技術來開發，並使用為真人動作的動作捕捉為訓練的原始材料。照這來看，機器人哪天能比人類更聰明還是未知數，但論跳舞大多數人應該已經是贏不了了。
這是 Boston Dynamics 與 Robotics and AI Institute（RAI Institute，機器人與 AI 研究院）合作研究的一部分。此外，Boston Dynamics也與其他單位有所合作，昨天他們也宣佈了與 NVIDIA 的深化在機器方面的合作，並使用 NVIDIA 的 Jetson Thor 運算平台來執行「複雜的多模態 AI 模型」，以操作 Boston Dynamic 的全身動作控制器。

Nvidia, Samsung Plan Investments in Robotics Startup Skild AI
(Bloomberg) -- Samsung Electronics Co. and Nvidia Corp. will take minority stakes in Skild AI Inc. as they seek to bolster their work in the emerging consumer robotics industry. Shuttered NY College Has Alumni Fighting Over Its Future Trump's Military Parade Has Washington Bracing for Tanks and Weaponry NYC Renters Brace for Price Hikes After Broker-Fee Ban NY Long Island Rail Service Resumes After Grand Central Fire NYC Mayoral Candidates All Agree on Building More Housing. But Where? The South Korean tech leader is making a $10 million investment in Skild, which develops software for robots, according to people with knowledge of the matter. The Santa Clara, California chipmaker is putting in $25 million, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing unannounced plans. The financing is part of the company's Series B funding round, which will value the company at around $4.5 billion and is led by a $100 million investment from Japan's SoftBank Group Corp. Internally, Samsung views its Skild investment as a way to keep visibility into the startup and its talent without needing to make a significant commitment. Another reason: to keep pace with other South Korean conglomerates like LG, Hanwha and Mirae Asset, which all have divisions putting between $5 million to $10 million into Skild. Nvidia has begun to push the idea of 'physical AI' — meaning robots and autonomous vehicles — becoming a significant future revenue driver as the technology matures. The chipmaker has semiconductors, software and services aimed at speeding up the deployment of robots that can think for themselves. Samsung considers some aspects of Skild's solutions inferior to others in the market, said some of the people. Representatives for Samsung and Nvidia declined to comment. A representative for Skild didn't respond to an inquiry. Robotics are quickly becoming a major area of future growth for the world's technology companies, with Apple Inc., Meta Platforms Inc., Inc. and Alphabet Inc.'s Google all investing heavily in the space. Tesla Inc., meanwhile, has long been preparing to ship its Optimus robot. A few months ago, Samsung took a minority stake in Physical Intelligence, which also develops underlying robotics algorithms, with a small investment. The startup has already raised around $400 million and was last valued at about $2.4 billion. Nvidia has invested in companies like Figure AI and Serve Robotics. Samsung already sells robot vacuums, but its ambitions go deeper to include humanoid robots and other household appliances. Later this year, in partnership will Google, it will launch the Ballie, a soccer-ball-sized machine that can project video onto walls. Samsung is also the largest shareholder of Rainbow Robotics, which makes humanoids. That company sits at the center of its work in the field. --With assistance from Ian King, Kate Clark and Yoolim Lee.

Is Intel the Turnaround Stock of 2025 and a Buy Now?
Intel Corporation INTC stock plunged 70% post chip foundry venture, yet Lip-Bu Tan's appointment as new CEO and recent 10% stock rise hint at a potential turnaround. Is it a good buy now? Let's see. Both Intel and NVIDIA Corporation NVDA produce graphics processing units (GPUs) that are essential for modern computing, including machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI). However, NVIDIA's CUDA software and Blackwell chips are highly sought after by developers and customers. The superior products from NVIDIA have allowed the company to secure a substantial share in most major AI segments, including data centers (read more: Is NVIDIA's Rise in Value a Sign to Invest in NVDA Stock?). Of course, it's challenging for Intel to compete with NVIDIA, but the former has more room to grow with a market capitalization of under $100 billion compared to NVIDIA's $3 trillion plus. Moreover, Intel's affordable AI accelerators can rival NVIDIA's. Intel is spending billions of dollars on enhancing its AI capabilities and may enter the market with energy-efficient chips. In the last two years, Intel has spent over $50 billion on upgrading its chip-manufacturing facilities. Such staggering infrastructure costs have made investors nervous due to the unprofitable foundry business. Intel's foundry business continues to face tough competition from the likes of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Limited TSM, or TSMC, and Samsung. However, TSMC and Samsung located in Southeast Asia, have manufacturing centers in China. The ongoing trade tensions between the United States and China could disrupt their business. In contrast, Intel's chip-making hubs are primarily in the United States, allowing domestic semiconductor companies to send chip orders to these facilities and bypass trade restrictions. Despite losing the top semiconductor title, Intel generated revenues of $12.7 billion in the first quarter of 2025, outpacing arch-rival Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.'s AMD $7.4 billion. This serves as a clear indication that Intel is making strides in the semiconductor industry and is well-positioned for a comeback. Last but not least, Lip-Bu Tan's appointment as the CEO of Intel has been well-received by market pundits, as his stint in the semiconductor industry has been productive. Tan's initiatives to streamline operations, deliver a competitive AI platform, and spin-off assets would restore stability at Intel and help the company return to its past glory. With Lip-Bu Tan leading Intel's foundry recovery and AI accelerators gaining ground among competitors through cost advantages, holding onto INTC stock seems judicious. Intel's business revival is becoming more probable, and brokers are showing optimism by increasing the short-term price target for INTC to $22.42 (up 9.5%) from $20.48. The highest target is $62, indicating a potential 202.7% upside. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research However, Intel's net profit margin is negative at 36.2%, while the Semiconductor - General industries have a margin of 49.5%, suggesting financial instability due to expenses surpassing revenues. Therefore, new entrants, for now, should wait for improved financials before considering INTC stock. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Intel has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
