Robot: A machine capable of completing basic and advanced objectives, sometimes having an appearance similar to that of a human and possibly able to be coded by a computer
AI: A machines ability to interpret data, rationalize it, and utilize it to complete preset objectives by its developer and go further beyond
Machine Learning: A synonym for AI, used to describe the process of robotic learning and its development
Robots in the early ages
Robots in the early ages
3000 B.C.: Water clocks in ancient Egypt were made to look like humans were ringing the bells.
2000 B.C.: Egyptian statues could gesture and prophesize using hydraulic based cogs and pipes
400 B.C.: Archytus of Taremtum, the inventor of the screw and pulley system created a wooden bird that could fly
1000 A.D.: Petronius Arbiter created a life sized human doll that could move like a human
1557 A.D.: Giovanni Torriani created a wooden robot that could fetch the Emperor's daily bread from the store.
The real robotic revolution didn't begin until the first modern robot was created in 1950 by George C. Devol, and later revolutionized by Joseph Engleberger who later became known as the father of robotics.

The connection between AI and Robots
The connection between AI and Robots
Artificial learning, as described earlier, is a tool used in conjunction with the development of robots. the combination of the two is still a rather new idea only truly coming to fruition in the early 2010's.
The tool itself is the hope to capture the idea and process of human understanding and allowing it to function at a higher rate than any other human could hope to achieve.
If an AI is to be connected to a robot and given a set of objectives, the AI would analyze the requirements, resources, surroundings and the internet ,if it was available, and instruct the robot on how best to proceed.
