Summary
For decades, engineers have been trying to create robots that look and move like humans, and now breakthroughs in AI are giving humanoid robots a new ability to acquire skills through learning. At Hyundai’s new auto plant near Savannah, Georgia, correspondent Bill Whitaker watches as Boston Dynamics’ humanoid, AI-powered robot Atlas learns to perform factory work in a real-world setting for the first time. Marc Lieberman is the producer.
For eight years, CBS News correspondent Steve Hartman and photographer Lou Bopp have documented the rooms of children killed in school shootings across the United States. Their bedrooms – virtually untouched as the children left them on the day they were killed – have become memorials to young lives cut short. Correspondent Anderson Cooper visits these spaces and speaks with the parents about their significance. Katie Brennan is the producer.
Barcelona’s 18-year-old soccer phenom Lamine Yamal has captivated fans with his improvisation and flair. Already, he is considered a generational talent and an heir to the great Lionel Messi. Correspondent Jon Wertheim meets Lamine Yamal in his home country of Spain to talk about his rapid ascent as the World Cup kicks off in North America. Draggan Mihailovich and Nathalie Sommer are the producers.
