Lifelike humanoid robot Ameca to appear as featured speaker at Inventures 2024

Inventures organizers have shared that Ameca, one of the world’s most advanced humanoid robots, will be speaking at the innovation event being held in Calgary from May 29 to 31. Ameca will engage Laura Kilcrease, CEO of Alberta Innovates, in a fireside chat from the main stage, on Wednesday, May 29.

“We are thrilled that Ameca will join us as a featured speaker at Inventures,” says Laura Kilcrease, CEO of Alberta Innovates. “Artificial intelligence and human intelligence are making robotics incredibly realistic. It is that intersection between artificial intelligence and an artificial body that allows us to consider the possibilities of the future. Ameca is just one of the remarkable things you’ll see at Inventures; so, join us in May and be amazed and inspired.”

Ameca was developed and designed by Engineered Arts as a platform for development into future robotics technologies. It is reportedly created to be the perfect humanoid robot platform for human-robot interaction.

Alberta Innovates shares in a press statement that Ameca is the physical presence that brings code and large language models to life.
