Part 1 of THERE’S NO MORE TOMORROW (TODAY) is live! This SF story set in Tokyo and Harajuku was inspired by the shutdown, the rise of virtual influencers, and outsiders stuck behind borders. Pics are by awesome Japanese artist MITSUME.
An illustration i did a while ago for WIRED Japan about nature being more creative than human or AI #illustration #ai #artificialintelligence #nature #science #wiredmagazine #blackandwhite

A 26-year-old Nigerian, credited for building the world’s first gaming robot, Silas Adekunle, has become the highest paid in the field of robotic engineering. Adekunle achieved the feat after signing a new deal with the world’s reputable software manufacturers, Apple Inc.
The robotics engineer was also named as “Someone to Watch in 2018” by the Black Hedge Fund Group.
Adekunle is currently the founder and CEO of Reach Robotics, a company developing the world’s first gaming robots.
He also recently graduated with a first class degree and has four years’ background in robotics.
In 2017 MekaMon, he released the world’s first gaming robot, with the special ability to customise the gaming bot to perform personalised functions.
The initial launch of Mekamon sold 500 bots, generating $7.5 million.
Following this feat, he received support from various organisations including London Venture Partners ($10 million) and Reach Robotics signed a deal with Apple securing exclusive sales in Apple stores.
“Impressed by the quality of his robots and their ability to show emotion with subtly-calibrated movements, Apple priced his four-legged “battle-bots” at $300 and has put them in nearly all of its stores in the United States and Britain.
Early customers skew towards male techies but a growing number of parents are buying the robots for their children to get them interested in STEM, Adekunle told Forbes in an interview this year.

No industry will have a bigger impact on humanity than Artificial Intelligence, Robotics and Human Augmentation. When this happens we will cease to exist as we are today. Now is the time to start learning about AI and most importantly getting your kids involved. They are the ones who will have to live through this. #artificialintelligence #robotics #futuretech #humanaugmentation #ghostintheshell (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/BriKVJ9FQF3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wneddxdl07de
