Wow. this is insane
"Sony just built a spin-tracking AI robot called Ace that can go head-to-head with elite table tennis players."
"It doesn’t just hit the ball, it reads spin, predicts trajectories, and adapts in real time like an actual opponent"
"In matches, it won 3 out of 5 against top-tier players, though professionals still managed to beat it twice."
"This is huge because table tennis has always been a nightmare for robotics, insanely fast, unpredictable, and brutally precise."
