Superhuman capacity of AI is obvious in games as well as in image and language processing, in autonomous driving, in digital language assistants, and chatbots. In research, humanoid, or human-like, robots fascinate people, as they give abstract methods of AI a physical appearance that can be experienced. The real-world lab "Robotic Artificial Intelligence" at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) is aimed at making AI tangible in a variety of experiments and different real environments, including childcare centers, schools, museums, libraries, and hospitals. The lab will be funded by the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Science, Research, and the Arts with EUR 800,000.
