Fans of The Terminator movies found themselves on the edge of their seats when watching the unstoppable T-1000 robot in Terminator 2: Judgement Day. Particularly thrilling was the way it could overcome any obstacle by turning to liquid then reforming as a solid. This robotic feat is now a reality - as scientists from The Chinese University of Hong Kong have created a man-shaped robot that can do the same. It is seen here in video footage ‘escaping’ a jail by turning to liquid, slipping through the bars of its prison and then reforming outside. Inspired by sea cucumbers, the miniature robots rapidly and reversibly shift between liquid and solid states. On top of being able to shape-shift, the robots are magnetic and can conduct electricity. The scientists also put the robots through an obstacle course of mobility and shape-morphing tests. In addition to impressing film fans, the Chinese University of Hong Kong scientists hope their research will pave the way for similar bots that can deliver drugs and remove foreign bodies from people’s systems.

Apple Inc on Thursday forecast that revenue would fall for a second quarter in a row but that iPhone sales were likely to improve as production had returned to normal in China after COVID-related shutdowns. While striking an optimistic tone on sales of services and iPhones, CEO Tim Cook said an uncertain economy is expected to hurt categories like gaming and digital advertising. Overall, Apple's leaders tried to reassure investors that despite the firm being buffeted by up-and-down sales cycles for its flagship device and vulnerable to supply chain shocks, the world's largest listed company remains on a steady - if somewhat slower - rise.

Unprecedented take-up may make AI chatbot the fastest-growing consumer internet app ever, analysts say
ChatGPT isn't the only game in town. It may have just hit a record-breaking 100 million monthly active users in just two months, according to a UBS study, but other artificial intelligence (AI) heavyweights hope to catch up. Chief among them are Google's LaMDA, so clever that an employee was fired for calling it "sentient", and Anthropic's Claude, which The New York Times reports is closing in on $300 million in funding. Chatbots aside, there's a whole lot else going on in AI, with news site CNET having to correct dozens of articles generated by a computer, tech company NVIDIA helping you keep eye contact on video calls, and even an infinite "Seinfeld" rip-off on streaming site Twitch that's powered by none other than AI.
