Recently named one of Forbes' 30 Under 30 and The Australian's Top 100 Innovators for 2024, Grace Brown from Andromeda is a trailblazer addressing loneliness and isolation in patients.

In this episode we’ll explore the boundless possibilities of human-robot collaboration with change makers Grace Brown and Mani Thiru and their brainchild, Abi, the first Australian humanoid robot, designed to enhance the quality of life for children in hospital, the elderly and other groups in need. With cutting-edge capabilities in empathetic communication, and artificial intelligence, Abi represents a paradigm shift in how we could approach companionship in the modern age.

This episode offers a glimpse into a very near future where human ingenuity and robotic innovation could converge to redefine the landscape of care and friendship … and that’s only the beginning.
