Host Galen Korosec sits down with Dr. Mark Post, Senior Lecturer in Robotics and Autonomous Systems at the University of York, to talk about where robotics stands today and where it's headed. The two first worked together on Galen's undergraduate modular robotics project, so the episode doubles as a catch-up between former supervisor and student.

Mark's work centres on robots that can adapt and survive in harsh, unpredictable environments such as space, underwater, nuclear sites, and increasingly farms, all with minimal human intervention. The conversation moves from his current space-warehouse project to the deeper challenge of building machines that can reason, handle uncertainty, and earn human trust.
