Portland, Ore. — Robots at Cornell University are making copies of themselves without human intervention. In principle, the machines will thus be able to repair and reproduce themselves in space and ...

Zaza Osmanov, a physics professor at the Free University of Tbilisi, Georgia, wants to find mischievous, self-replicating probes built by a hyper-advanced alien civilization. “The self-replication ...

These bio-bots are made from frog cells. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. In action, the bots (dubbed "xenobots" by their ...

If the idea of living robots made out of frog cells isn't quite weird enough for you, how about living robots made out of frog cells with the ability to reproduce? These first-of-a-kind "Xenobots" are ...

TORONTO, Ontario (CNN) — Scientists in the United States have created robots that can spontaneously self-replicate in what they’re calling a “profound” discovery. The study, published on Monday in ...

When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Across 10 trials, two AI models created separate and functioning replicas of themselves in 50% ...

In January 2020, scientists created a new breed called the “Xenobots”—the world’s first-ever living robots, engineered from the stem cells of the Xenopus laevis species, or the African clawed frog.

In a recent study posted to the bioRxiv* preprint server, researchers assessed the efficiency of a controllable self-replicating ribonucleic acid (c-srRNA) vaccine against severe acute respiratory ...

In 2020, scientists made global headlines by creating “xenobots”—tiny “programmable” living things made of several thousand frog stem cells. These pioneer xenobots could move around in fluids, and ...

The missing link that helps to explain the origins of life may not be an as-yet-undiscovered fossil, but rather, could be embodied in a tiny, self-replicating globule called a coacervate droplet, ...
