Deep Dive: A robot recently beat the human half-marathon world record by seven minutes, another walked the Met Gala red carpet, while one major world religion is ordaining them as monks.

Humanoid robots are turning up in spaces we once thought were exclusively ours - and that's not an accident. It's the latest move in a multibillion-dollar effort to make machines feel familiar, relatable and, ultimately, welcome.

In this episode of The Briefing, Chris Spyrou traces the 60-year playbook behind our relationship with machines - from a 1960s MIT chatbot to a breathing AI in your pocket – to explain how we arrived at a moment where robots are beginning to move from our screens and showrooms into our streets.
