Over the last few months, President Trump has introduced a confusing and evolving slate of tariffs against specific countries and industries raising prices for Americans seemingly to pay for billionaire tax cuts. 🇺🇸 No one knows for sure what’s coming next as the federal deficit is also expected to increase raising inflation and prices even more. If Americans continue to decrease spending we can expect more layoffs later this year too. image

It will be interesting to see how robots using LLMs will be used to complete complex tasks in the hospital, while it will help lower costs it will also replace jobs currently held by humans. Study: Embodied large language models enable robots to complete complex tasks in unpredictable environments, tested here to complete coffee making and plate decoration. An embodied large-language-model-enabled robot (ELLMER) framework, utilizing GPT-4 and a retrieval-augmented generation infrastructure, to enable robots to complete long-horizon tasks in unpredictable settings. The method extracts contextually relevant examples from a knowledge base, producing action plans that incorporate force and visual feedback and enabling adaptation to changing conditions. https://www.nature.com/articles/s42256-025-01005-x image

As the tariff chaos and confusion continues it seems more and more likely stagflation will start this summer with rising prices and inflation and decreasing GDP. 🇺🇸 President Donald Trump on Friday said the U.S. would begin unilaterally informing many of its trading partners of new tariff rates, acknowledging for the first time that his administration will be unable to negotiate deals to lower tariffs with more than 50 trading partners by a self-imposed early July deadline. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/16/trump-says-us-will-set-new-tariff-rates-for-countries-skirting-negotiations-00353370

China's AI-powered humanoid robots aim to transform manufacturing. Robots' rise and replacement of humans in some job categories spurs talk of AI unemployment insurance. 🇺🇸The US needs to come up with policies or legislation about what we are doing to deal with the fact that AI automation is replacing human jobs and apparently in the future AI robots will replace even more human jobs.🇺🇸 In a sprawling warehouse in a Shanghai suburb, dozens of humanoid robots are manoeuvred by their operators to carry out tasks like folding a T-shirt, making a sandwich and opening doors, over and over again. A successful and widespread deployment of these robots in factory floors would enable China to keep driving economic growth. China's government published a national elderly-care plan in December that encouraged integration of humanoid robots and AI. Soon after, tech giant Ant Group announced the creation of new subsidiary Ant Lingbo Technology, whose humanoid robots will focus on elderly care, among other areas. "The robots in five or 10 years could organise a resident's room, pick up a package or even transfer people from a bed to a washroom," said AgiBot's Yao. https://www.reuters.com/world/china/chinas-ai-powered-humanoid-robots-aim-transform-manufacturing-2025-05-13/ image
