How Much Control Do We Give Robots? | The Future of Robotics | WIRED

What is a robot? Well, it doesn't always look like a human. In fact, different roboticists have different definitions. But most agree that a robot needs to be a physical machine that can sense the world around it, and make at least some decisions on its own. In the next few years, we're going to start seeing robots that make decisions entirely on their own - fully autonomous robots. Many fear that these kind of robots will breed dangerous results: can we trust a robot that makes all decisions for us? Or should humans and robots share the control?

Facebook Has Lost its Dominance Among Key Demographics and Social Media Users

There was a time not all that long ago when Facebook was considered to be the absolute pinnacle of social media in general. Because of the fact that this is the sort of thing that could potentially end up being no longer the case without widespread innovation, Facebook has worked quite hard to diversify its offerings. However, recent data suggests that in spite of the fact that this is the case, Facebook has now lost its dominance among key demographics as well as social media users in general.

According to research conducted by the EdisonResearch, two very intriguing statistics have emerged. The first is that Facebook is no longer the social media platform of choice for people between the ages of 12 and 34. This is arguably the single most important demographic out there due to the reason that these are the people that the vast majority of advertisers are going to want to target at any given point in time. Only 21% of users between 12 and 34 years of age say that Facebook is their social media brand of choice.

How the logistics industry is positioned in India

The market size of logistics grew at a CAGR of 11 per cent from FY19 till FY24 and it is projected to reach a market size of ₹35.3 trillion by FY29. While expenditure on logistics as a % of GDP is at a relatively higher 13 per cent, it is expected to drop to high-single-digits on improving connectivity and efficiencies through formalisation of the economy. The transportation segment contributes to most of the logistics market in India and within that, roadways dominate as of FY21. However, with the improvement in the rail infrastructure, Railways are expected to grow at a faster pace. This has been compiled from the RHP of Wester Carriers (India) Limited
