Strikes me as weird to ask a robotics expert about an artificial intelligence question.

  Robotics is a very diverse field with a lot of different problems. There's plenty of people in it who do hardcore AI. A lot of the time, the results developed by roboticist can be used more generally, they just picked robotics as their application domain. Robotics also has some different constraints that can make problems interesting -- namely computation time and safety requirements.

    I agree about robotics being a diverse field, but from his history it didn't sound like he had any serious AI experience. I can't think that if he did, the article wouldn't cite it right?

  It's probably what you do when you need something for an article that would sell good to the public. General population doesn't understand that intelligence doesn't need a physical body to be useful, or dangerous.
