Abstract

This study examines the interrelationship between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and robotics as two transformative pillars of modern technology that are reshaping human life and industry. It explores how AI enhances robotic capabilities—enabling autonomous decision-making, adaptive learning, and complex task execution through advances in machine learning, neural networks, and sensor technologies. The research highlights real-world applications across key domains, including medicine, agriculture, manufacturing, and social services, demonstrating significant gains in efficiency, accuracy, and productivity. However, it also addresses the accompanying technical, ethical, and societal challenges, such as data privacy, cybersecurity, job displacement, and legal accountability. The paper emphasizes the importance of transparent governance, interdisciplinary collaboration, and workforce reskilling to ensure responsible innovation. It concludes that while the synergy between AI and robotics offers vast potential for progress, its benefits must be guided by ethical principles and equitable policies to serve humanity as a whole.
