Link Building Outreach: How to Run Successful Outreach Campaigns in 2021

by Leave a Comment

Link building is a process of creation, augmentation, and spreading of hyperlinks to a website.

The main goal of this process is improving search engine visibility. Hyperlinks (also known as “backlinks” or just “links”) are used to skip from one Internet page to another. Link building is one of the most effective and productive ways of SEO optimization.

It is necessary to differentiate a process of link purchasing from link building. Buying a link can be faster than building it, but a purchased link would not be qualitative enough. [Read more…] about Link Building Outreach: How to Run Successful Outreach Campaigns in 2021

Robot displays ‘glimmer of empathy’ to partner robot

by Leave a Comment

Columbia University engineers say they have created a robot that learns to visually predict how its partner robot will behave, displaying a glimmer of empathy. This “Robot Theory of Mind” could help robots get along with other robots – and humans – more intuitively.

Like a longtime couple who can predict each other’s every move, a Columbia Engineering robot has learned to predict its partner robot’s future actions and goals based on just a few initial video frames.

When two primates are cooped up together for a long time, we quickly learn to predict the near-term actions of our roommates, co-workers or family members. Our ability to anticipate the actions of others makes it easier for us to successfully live and work together. [Read more…] about Robot displays ‘glimmer of empathy’ to partner robot
