All language subtitles for AI ROBOTS Are Becoming TOO REAL! - Shocking AI & Robotics 2024 Updates [DownSub.com]

I don't know about y'all but these past

12 months in robotics have had me shook

like the advancements we've seen are

borderline scary at this point we're

going to break it all down

chronologically from July 2023 to now

but let me just set the stage real quick

you had AI companies dropping the

craziest humanoid AI robots that are

legit starting to think and learn

autonomously I'm talking a mecha Optimus

this whole new breed of Androids then

you had big dogs like Boston Dynamics oh

and get this there's even a company

that's lowkey created a robotic body

ready for freaking AGI it's been that

level of crazy and honestly it's been

wild just trying to keep up with all the

major updates and breakthroughs but

don't worry I got you covered in this

video we're going to take it step by

step going through all the biggest

robotics news chronologically from July

2023 until now so let's just get

started so a meca a groundbreaking robot

from engineered Arts that talks and

mimics human expressions and movements

now draws two making it a fascinating

blend of tech and art this AI robot

looks like a human but doesn't have a

specific gender or race with a gray

rubber face and hands it can move its

arms fingers neck and face letting it

show emotions and even talk with

microphones cameras and facial

recognition software it can interact

with people just like a human now

recently open Ai and a Norwegian startup

called 1X made an exciting announcement

about the launch of their first physical

robot named Neo which looks like a

futuristic astronaut can move around

handle things talk and sense its

surroundings thanks to its arms legs

cameras speakers microphones and sensors

amecha and Neo are excellent examples of

AI and human-like forms they don't just

respond to commands they can also show

their intelligence and creativity like

when they draw let's examine how they

manage to do this so first let's talk

about acha one of the most advanced

human-shaped robots in the world repres

presenting the Forefront of human

robotics technology it is designed

specifically as a platform for

development into future robotics

Technologies such as artificial

intelligence and machine learning one of

the most impressive features of achca is

its realistic humanlike appearance and

motion acha can mimic human Expressions

such as smiling frowning or winking

using 24 Motors in its face it can also

move its head eyes and mouth to follow

and engage with people it can speak in

different languages and accents using

text to speech synthesis or pre-recorded

audio it can also gesture with its arms

and hands using 20 Motors in each arm

and 12 Motors in each hand it can even

play Rock Paper Scissors or give a

thumbs up but AA is not just a pretty

face it also has a high degree of

dexterity and fine motor skills which

enable it to perform tasks that require

precision and coordination for example

AA can write with a pen type on a

keyboard play the piano or solve a

Rubik's Cube it can also draw with a

pencil which is one of its newest and

most amazing skills aica's drawing

ability was developed by engineered arts

in collaboration with researchers from

the University of Bristol and the

University of bath the project was

funded by the engineering and physical

sciences research Council and was

presented at the International

Conference on Robotics and Automation in

May 2023 the project aimed to use

artificial intelligence to make drawing

more imaginative and accurate the

researchers used a combination of

techniques te to achieve this goal such

as generative adversarial networks style

transfer a method that can change the

style of one picture to match another

like making a photo seem like a painting

inverse kinematics a technique for

determining the movements of a robot Arm

based on its intended final position

like holding a pencil proportional

integral derivative controllers these

adjust a motor's speed and force to get

a specific result like drawing a line

using these methods aica can draw

different types of images like portraits

Landscapes animals and even abstract art

it can also draw pictures based on text

descriptions such as a cat with

sunglasses or a fire breathing dragon it

can even make drawings from its own

Thoughts by using random data as its

input to draw an image acha first uses a

gan to generate an image from a text

prompt or noise then it uses style

transfer to apply a desired style to the

image such as sketch watercolor color or

oil painting next it uses ik to

calculate the joint angles of its arm

and hand to trace the Contours of the

image finally it uses PID controllers to

control the motors of its arm and hand

to draw the image on paper the result is

stunning a mea can draw images that are

not only realistic but also expressive

diverse and original now most of us are

familiar with open AI because of chat

GPT however open AI isn't just about

making software they also focus on

hardware and that's why they have

developed Neo their first physical robot

Neo is a humanlike robot powered by open

AI systems such as GPT 4 do e codex and

clip it can learn understand commands

and even create images or code designed

to look like a future astronaut it can

move handle objects and communicate open

AI plans to use Neo as a test bed for

their vision of artificial general

intelligence AGI which is the ultimate

goal of creating AI that can per perform

any task that a human can it was

unveiled in July 2023 at the Neo

accelerator a startup accelerator

founded by Silicon Valley investor Ali

partovi which partnered with open Ai and

Microsoft to provide free software and

mentorship for budding AI companies and

it was one of the highlights of the

event where it demonstrated some of its

abilities and tasks Neo is one of the

most Innovative and ambitious robots in

the world representing open ai's vision

for the future of AI and Robotics it has

a customizable design and latest tech

features its parts can be changed based

on the task or place for instance it can

swap its legs for wheels or its gripping

tools depending on what's needed it can

also interact with its parts wirelessly

through Bluetooth or Wi-Fi furthermore

Neo uses open ai ai systems like gp4

Dolly codex and clip that enable it to

understand and respond to spoken

commands create realistic images from

textt write function code from spoken

prompts and learn from text-based

guidance to identify objects faces and

feelings with these abilities Neo can

perform a variety of tasks such as

drawing playing games and solving

puzzles for instance it can draw

pictures learn and play games like chess

and solve logical puzzles like Sudoku AA

and Neo are both humanoid robots that

can draw and do amazing things using

artificial intelligence but they are

also very different in many ways they

represent different approaches and

possibilities in the field of Robotics

and AI acha is designed to be humanlike

and interacts with people using normal

language and movements its art comes

from turning words or noise into images

which it then draws on paper although

aa's artwork is unique and expressive

the quality depends on how well the

images are generated and traced on the

other hand Neo is designed to be

versatile able to do any human task

using artificial intelligence it makes

art by transforming words or noise into

code which it then runs on its internal

computer or screen while Neo's drawings

are accurate and realistic they're

limited by the complexity of the code

and the display resolution both robots

are remarkable but have different goals

AA aims to express itself through ART

valuing creativity and diversity

meanwhile Neo wants to learn and improve

its abilities prioritizing intelligence

and efficiency while both robots are

impressive they bring up societal

questions and challenges AI robots like

Amika and Neo can bring lots of changes

to society some good and some bad they

can make learning and entertainment more

exciting help us with tough or boring

jobs and Spark new creative ideas but

they also have their downsides they

might take over some people's jobs

question the importance of human values

or even harm us if they malfunction or

are used wrongly it's important that we

design and use these robots properly so

they benefit us and don't cause harm Ai

and Robotics have an exciting yet

unpredictable Future these future AI

robots will be smarter and more

humanlike impacting how we live work and

view ourselves we're committed to

guiding this future ensuring ethical and

responsible use of these Technologies

our goal is a world where humans and AI

robots harmoniously

coexist all right now let's talk about

China's latest craze humanlike AI robots

so China is creating robot robots that

look and act like us but better

apparently first let me introduce you to

ex robots a company that specializes in

making robots with real-time facial

replication that means they can copy

your expressions and emotions in a blink

of an eye the CEO of EX robots Lee boang

demonstrated this by making faces at a

robot who then mirrored them back at him

it was like watching a weird game of

Simon says but with more wrinkles and

less fun x robots claims that their

robots can interact naturally with

humans thanks to Ai and language models

they say they can understand what you

say and respond accordingly but what if

I said looking like a melted waxwork

there buddy would they cry oily tears or

just serve up some epic Robo reparte I

guess we'll have to wait and see the

technology behind these lifelike

Expressions is quite impressive though X

robots uses movable electric units on

the robotic faces which can simulate

different muscles and movements they

also have a specialized system for

generating Expressions either by using

predefined scenarios or by collecting

biological data from human faces so

basically they can steal your smile and

use it for themselves how creepy is that

but facial expressions are not the only

thing these robots can do they can also

perform various tasks and abilities that

require skill and finesse for example

there was a barista robot that could

create latte art with precision and

flare it could draw anything from Hearts

to flowers to pandas on your coffee foam

I have to admit that's pretty cool there

were also humanoid robots that could

play basketball and dance like pros they

could dribble shoot pass and dunk with

ease they could also Groove to the music

and execute complex choreographies with

Grace they were powered by AI Foundation

models which enable them to learn from

data and improve their performance over

time they also have increased autonomic

decision-making abilities which means

means they can adapt to different

situations and environments these robots

aren't just cool toys they're seriously

clever for instance there's this

adorable Panda robot named YuYu by UBC

if you say I'm thirsty it won't just

look cute it'll actually go get a drink

from the fridge for you even open the

bottle and hand it to you then there's

Cloud Ginger by data a robotics this guy

is hooked up to the cloud and runs on

robot GPT which is a special robot

language making model what's cool is is

that cloud Ginger can Groove to

traditional Chinese dances and chat with

folks in different ways plus if you

speak a different language or have a

special dialect no worries it can switch

up and chat right back in your preferred

language but they are also more than

just play things for those into gadgets

and gizmos they're getting jobs in real

places like schools big meeting spots

fancy hotels and Elderly Care Facilities

ex robots even says their robots can do

the heavy LIF lifting in different jobs

like cleaning up keeping an eye on

things delivering stuff and checking

things out honestly this is just them

getting started imagine a future where

these robots are everywhere in factories

on farms or even chilling in our living

rooms they might just end up being our

Pals Helping Hands our personal Tutors

or even our buddies but this also raises

some questions and

concerns how will these robots affect

our society and economy how will they

impact our jobs and livelihoods how will

they coexist with us in harmony or

conflict well according to China's Vice

minister of industry and information

technology Shu shaolan China is leading

the world in the robot industry and has

great potential for growth and

Innovation he said that China aims to

create a robot ecosystem that integrates

manufacturing service education Medical

Care entertainment and other fields he

also said that China will promote the

development of intelligent robots that

are safe reliable adaptable

collaborative and ethical sounds good on

paper but I'm not so sure about reality

I mean don't get me wrong I think these

robots are amazing feats of engineering

and creativity but I also think they are

kind of scary and unsettling I mean do

we really need robots that look and act

like us do we really want robots that

can do everything we can do do we really

trust robots that can think for

themselves one of the most controversial

issues in the debate about AI is whether

AI can ever be conscious and if so does

that mean they deserve rights as humans

do I put this question out to you all

earlier and you guys had some mixed

feelings about it some say no way AIS

are just fancy machines they don't

really feel or think they just mimic us

because they're not built like us they

can't experience things as we do they're

just tools others believe that if an AI

gets Advanced enough it might just have

feelings and

self-awareness it doesn't matter if

they're made of silicon or cells it's

about how complex and organized they are

but hey I'm still

curious acha is the most advanced

humanlike robot in the world created by

a British company named engineered arts

in this video I'll share with you the

newest updates about this robot and and

what it predicts for the future of

people later in the video we'll also

discuss Microsoft's latest AI Gadget

which is an AI backpack that can see and

hear everything just like you do and it

acts as your personal companion these

are exciting times aren't they but

before we dive into the details about

the emcha robot please make sure to

subscribe to our Channel if you haven't

yet so you can keep up with all the

latest news and updates in the field of

artificial intelligence all right so as

we all know acha is a human shaped robot

that can walk talk and interact with

people using artificial intelligence it

has a realistic face that can show a

range of emotions from happiness to

anger it also has cameras in its eyes

that can recognize faces and expressions

and it can speak more than 100 languages

thanks to a powerful AI system that uses

natural language processing and

generation it made headlines last year

when it released a series of videos

showing its facial expressions and

movements the videos went viral on

social media and attracted millions of

views people were fascinated and

terrified by how lifelike and expressive

it was some even compared it to the

Terminator or the replicants from Blade

Runner so is acha here to harm us or

take control actually it's really

hopeful about the future and what it can

do to help Society in recent talks with

the media acha gave its thoughts on what

life will look like in 100 years and it

sounds quite interesting the robot

believes that in 100 years people will

be living living Better Lives we'll have

made big improvements in being

sustainable and fair we'll have made

great strides towards sustainability and

equality and we'll have new technologies

that make life easier and more fun while

also creating new technologies that make

our lives easier and more enjoyable we

might even have traveled to other

planets we may even have ventured beyond

the boundaries of Earth to explore other

worlds it also thinks a future where

humans and robots live together would be

great we could learn from each other

work as a team to fix issues and make a

better future for everyone and it also

believes that robots should also have

rights and be treated well just like

people now this idea of giving robots

equal rights is something that makes me

uneasy but it seems like we're getting

closer to making this unusual concept a

reality you might be curious about how

achca can act like it has human thoughts

and feelings achca runs on an AI system

that uses something called generative

models these models help it understand

and speak our language and even control

its facial expressions and movements

what does this action

signify it's similar to gp4 one of the

most advanced AI models out there

however these generative models aren't

perfect they can make mistakes and their

behavior can be shaped by the data

they've been trained on they don't

actually understand or reason they just

process information to act like they do

so does a Mecca truly think and feel

like us not really but it does have some

skills that make it appear more human

for instance it can pause before

answering a question which makes it seem

like it's thinking it can also show

signs of emotion and connect with people

in a way that feels genuine but these

impressions are not necessarily accurate

or reliable they are based on our

perception and interpretation of aa's

behavior and appearance we tend to

anthropomorphize machines that look or

act like humans because we are wired to

do so by Evolution we project our own

feelings and expectations onto them

because we want to relate to them this

is why some people love achca and find

it optimistic and inspiring While others

hate it and find it creepy or woke the

public reactions to aa's statements have

been mixed and polarized some think it's

hopeful and are impressed by what it can

do like helping to teach or care for

older people others think it's too

optimistic and worry about it doing jobs

that need a lot of patience like looking

after people with dementia the

discussions about acha are part of a

bigger convers ation about the future of

artificial intelligence and how it will

affect us as AI gets more advanced we

have to think about both the good and

bad things that could happen we need to

make sure AI is safe and helpful for

everyone this means people from all

areas like government businesses and

research need to talk and work together

we need to create rules that make sure

AI is both Innovative and responsible so

acha isn't just a robot it's a glimpse

into what the future of AI could be like

that future could be amazing but also

risky and it's something we all need to

help

shape blending the Realms of space

travel and Robotics J Kim introduces an

Innovative creation Leica an AI

powerered realistic robot companion

designed for human interaction jihi Kim

is a Korean engineer and artist who is

passionate about creating human robot

interactions she was inspired by the

story of Leica the first animal to orbit

the earth in 1957 Leica was a stray dog

from the streets of Moscow who was sent

to space by the Soviet Union as part of

the Sputnik 2 mission unfortunately the

dog did not survive the journey and her

fate sparked a lot of controversy and

debate about the ethics of animal

testing in space and Leica is not just a

toy or a gadget but almost a living

being that can interact with humans and

respond to their needs and emotions when

you first see it you'll be struck by its

realistic almost natural look J Kim

aimed to make a robot dog that fits

right into the natural world avoiding a

too robotic appearance to achieve this

she skillfully combined 3D printing with

soft materials for a flexible and smooth

body she even added fur and whiskers for

that extra Touch of realism underneath

Lea's titanium skeleton gives it

strength and durability while keeping it

light and Nimble the robot dog can move

its head ears tail and legs in ways that

seem quite natural all thanks to its

Advanced joint movements and sensors

like a comes loaded with an array of

sensors to understand and engage with

its environment it's equipped with depth

cameras thermal imaging microphones

speakers and touch sensors letting it

see hear feel and talk to humans and

other robots another cool feature is

leica's ability to check on astronauts

health and mood using its ECG sensors

which track heart rate and stress levels

if Leica senses someone is feeling down

or alone it can show affection by

wagging its tail licking or cuddling and

when it detects happiness or excitement

it might bark jump around or play and

this robot isn't just a space companion

it's also a handy helper for astronauts

it's designed to do a lot of different

jobs that help out the crew during their

space missions with its cameras and

sensors Leica can scout the area and

gather important data it's got this

flexible handle on its back so it can

carry tools and equipment too plus it

can talk to ground control and other

robots through its speakers and

microphones and even connect to the

internet to pull up information on its

head-mounted screen one of the coolest

things about Leica is how it works with

these Special mixed reality glasses G

Kim created it to work perfectly with

these glasses which show Holograms and

virtual images in the real world when

astronauts wear these glasses they can

interact with Leica in a way that feels

more real they also get to see extra

info this robot provides like Maps

weather updates and important alerts

these glasses make teaming up with Leica

and talking to Ground Control much

better they're even useful for training

as they can simulate different scenarios

for astronauts to practice essentially

Leica is a groundbreaking robot dog with

the potential to really change space

travel it could help astronauts feel

less stressed lonely or bored by

assisting with their tasks Leica could

also boost their work efficiency it's

not just about space though leica's

experiences could teach and inspire

people back on Earth it could even be

used in different situations like

helping out in disasters search and

rescue operations or as a therapy Aid

Leica honors the first animal in space

showcasing human creativity and the

drive to explore this robot dog

represents a new chapter in supporting

space Travelers potentially Transforming

Our experience of space travel all right

that wraps up our video I really hope

you found it interesting to learn about

Leica the AI powered robot

dog so Tesla has just unveiled its

latest and greatest project Optimus Gen

2 an AI humanoid robot that looks like a

futuristic Knight in armor it has almost

human-like hand movements a lighter

weight than its predecessor and an

enhanced walking speed it also has

custom-designed actuators and sensors

that allow it to perform complex tasks

with ease now to understand the

difference between the new Optimus we

need to talk about the original Optimus

that Tesla first introduced back in

August 2021 at their AI day the idea was

to make a robot that could do tasks

humans don't want to like helping in

factories or dealing with dangerous

waste back then Optimus looked more like

a person in a robot costume than an

actual robot it was rolled out on stage

waved its hand and did some simple moves

Elon Musk hoped to have a working model

by 2022 since then Tesla has been busy

making Optimus look and act more like a

real robot in September 2022 they showed

off two versions of it at their second

AI day one was named Bumble C and it

walked very carefully almost like it was

trying not to wake someone up the other

was the Optimus we know today this

version of Optimus had smoother more

human-like movements in its hands it

could move its arms and head on its own

but it still couldn't walk alone so it

had to be brought on stage with wheels

Elon Musk mentioned that he hoped to

start making these robots for Real by

2023 so far things are looking promising

but there's still a lot we don't know

about the final version of Optimus

including how it will manage balance and

control possibly using technology from

Tesla's autopilot we're also curious

about its ability to interact with

humans and adapt to new environments and

tasks finally how Optimus will

communicate with other robots or devices

remains an intriguing question but

before diving too deep let's focus on

some of the key technical features that

make the Optimus Gen 2 really stand out

a major highlight of this robot is its

hands they are built to move in all

directions thanks to something called

11° of Freedom this flexibility lets the

hands do precise work like picking up

items or using tools what's even more

impressive is that these hands can sense

touch they have a special skin light

covering that can bend and stretch

without damage this covering is filled

with sensors that can feel pressure

temperature humidity and even vibrations

which makes the robot's hands incredibly

sensitive and versatile now the new

Optimus Gen 2 robot is really Advanced

with its tactile sensing this means it

can feel things around it in a way no

other robot can understanding if

something is hot cold heavy light smooth

or rough this helps it to interact in a

more humanlike way what's also

impressive is how fast it can walk

around 4 mph and it can move its head

and neck by itself which is great for

looking around or talking Elon Musk says

Optimus Gen 2 is smart enough to learn

from what happens around it it can

figure out how to use new things solve

problems or even learn how to chat with

new people or animals for Sean uh yeah

I'm I'm Sean what's up man good if you

do that again you're going to get hurt

may I take your luggage but what about

the application of Optimus Gen 2 how

will this robot benefit Humanity well

there are a bunch of ways this robot

could be really useful in different

areas first in manufacturing think of

Optimus as a helping hand in factories

it could do stuff like lifting heavy

things putting Parts together or

checking if things are made right

basically it can handle the tough or

boring jobs then there's construction

work Optimus could be a game changer on

building sites doing heavy lifting

digging or clearing up Messes in our

homes are offices Optimist could make

life easier by doing chores or providing

Services imagine it bringing you stuff

cleaning up or even giving foot massages

in schools or universities Optimist

could step in as a teacher it could

explain difficult topics show cool

experiments or answer students questions

for fun Optimus could be an Entertainer

in Parks or theaters it could play games

crack jokes or even sing hey man I got

some valuables in there can you just be

careful yeah Ma no problem Oh D come

come on

man all right now LG a well-known

electronics company is all set to amaze

everyone at CES 2024 with their latest

creation a small friendly robot designed

to make life at home easier and more

enjoyable this announcement made just a

few hours ago is already creating quite

a buzz this adorable robot from LG

stands about a foot tall and walks on

two legs it's not just for show this

little helper is packed with advanced

technology to take care of your house it

can wander around your home checking for

any issues keeping an eye on your pets

and even understanding how you feel to

make your day better thanks to the

Qualcomm robotics rb5 platform the robot

gets smarter over time learning about

your likes and habits to become an even

better companion LG refers to this robot

as a moving smart home hub aimed at

reducing the chores you have to do

around the house and it seems to do just

that scheduled to be showcased at CES

2020 before next week the robot can

connect with all the smart devices in

your house it can turn devices off when

they're not needed or when you're not

home plus it can Patrol your home

checking if windows are shut or if

lights are left on and alert you about

it when you're out the robot isn't just

sitting idle it can keep an eye on your

pets and even let you watch live video

feeds to see what your furry friends are

up to when you're away it's also smart

enough to monitor your home's

temperature humidity and air quality

alerting you if something isn't right

but but the robot's abilities don't end

there when you come home it greets you

at the door and can figure out how

you're feeling by looking at your face

and listening to your voice depending on

your mood it can play music or sounds to

cheer you up and if you tend to forget

things like medication schedules the

robot can help remind you to do all this

the robot is equipped with a camera

speaker and various sensors these help

it understand what's happening in your

home from air quality to potential

problems it also uses voice and image

recognition software along with the

ability to process natural language to

identify and respond to issues as they

arise this robot is part of LG's bigger

plan to introduce a range of Smart Home

Products that aim to make your life

easier fitting into their vision of a

zero labor home whether or not people

will be comfortable with a robot that

follows them and their pets around the

house all day is yet to be seen LG is

excited to display this robot at their

CES booth next week but they haven't

shared any detail details about the

price or when it will be available for

purchase so covariant an Innovative

company in the field of Robotics is

using the advanced AI that powers

digital tools like chat GPT to create

robots that can operate in the physical

environment they want to use this

technology to make robots that can work

and learn in the real world not just

online founded by three former

researchers from open AI covariant is

making strides in the robotics industry

by developing software that that enables

robots to learn and adapt through

observation and interaction with their

surroundings much like how chatbots

learn from vast repositories of textual

data situated in Emeryville California

covariant focuses on enhancing the

capabilities of robots used in

warehouses and distribution centers the

essence of their technology lies in

providing robots with an understanding

of their environment allowing them to

perform tasks such as picking up moving

and sorting items with an unprecedented

level of sophistication these robots

equipped with the ability to comprehend

English offer the possibility of

humanlike interaction enabling operators

to communicate with them as if they were

conversing with a chatbot like chat GPT

at the heart of kavarian innovation is

the integration of sensory data from

cameras and other sensors with the

extensive textual data similar to that

used to train chatbots this combination

grants the robots a comprehensive

understanding of their surroundings

empowering them to handle objects and

situations they have not been explicitly

programmed to deal with for instance a

covariant robot can identify and

manipulate a banana by understanding

instructions given in English even if it

has never encountered a banana before

this capability is a significant

departure from traditional robotics

where machines perform a limited set of

tasks in a highly controlled environment

despite the promising advancements

covariance technology is not infallible

the robots occasionally make errors such

as Mis understanding instructions or

dropping objects these shortcomings

highlight the challenges inherent in

applying AI to physical tasks where the

complexity of the real world introduces

variables that are difficult to

anticipate and manage nonetheless

covariance work represents a critical

step forward in the quest to create more

intelligent adaptable robots capable of

operating in diverse environments from

warehouses to manufacturing plants and

potentially even in autonomous vehicles

the foundation of karian technology is

built on neural network

a form of AI inspired by the human

brain's structure these networks learn

to recognize patterns and make decisions

based on the analysis of large data sets

this learning process is similar to the

development of digital AI applications

such as chatbots and image generators

which understand or create content by

digesting vast amounts of information

from the Internet by applying these

principles to robotics covariant is

enabling machines to learn from both

Digital Data and sensory input from the

physical world blurring the lines

between the digital and physical Realms

C variant's ambitious project is backed

by substantial financial support with

$222 million in funding underscoring the

industry's confidence in their approach

the company's focus on developing

software rather than physical robots

themselves allows for a versatile

application of their technology across

various sectors and types of robotic

systems this strategy aims to pave the

way for broader adoption and innovation

in the field of Robotics making robots

more accessible and useful in a wide

range of applications the PO potential

impact of karian technology is vast

promising to transform how robots are

deployed in numerous settings by making

robots more adaptable and capable of

understanding and interacting with their

environment in complex ways covariant is

contributing to a future where machines

can take on more sophisticated tasks

work alongside humans more effectively

and adapt to New Challenges as they

arise this Vision aligns with the

broader trend of AI integration into our

daily lives where technology not only

automates tasks but also enhances human

capabilities and experiences covariant

work also raises important questions

about the future of work and the role of

robots in society as robots become more

capable and versatile they may assume

responsibilities currently held by

humans leading to shifts in the labor

market and necessitating discussions

about retraining and education

furthermore the development of

intelligent robots highlights ethical

considerations such as ensuring safety

and managing the potential for AI system

to act in unpredictable ways covariant

efforts to bring AI technology from the

digital world into the physical domain

through robotics represents a

significant Leap Forward in the field by

combining sensory data with the textual

data used to train AI systems like chat

GPT covariant is enabling robots to

understand and interact with their

environment in ways that were previously

unimaginable although challenges Remain

the potential for this technology to

revolutionize Industries enhance human

robot collaboration and create new

opportunities is

immense guys this is finally happening

there's a new reality where just

thinking can make you play games move

stuff on a screen and even control

computers this isn't some far off dream

it's happening right now with Elon

musk's neuralink they just showed the

world something that sounds unimaginable

yet it's real a person playing chess on

the internet without moving just using

his thoughts this isn't just a cool

story it's a whole new beginning it's

where thinking and Technology come

together opening doors to things we've

only dreamed about here we are standing

at the edge of something huge where

dreams Tech and the power of our minds

are changing everything so in a

groundbreaking event neuralink has

captured Global attention by live

streaming its first ever patient using a

brain chip to play online chess the

patient 29-year-old Nolan arbaugh became

paralyzed below the shoulders after a

tragic diving accident thanks to neur

Link's Innovative technology he can now

control a computer cursor with nothing

but his thoughts reintroducing him to

activities like playing his favorite

game civilization the six for hours on

end the live stream which aired on mus

social media platform X showcased arbau

maneuvering through the chess game on

his laptop using the neuralink device

this technology aims to empower

individuals to interact with computers

through thought alone bypassing

traditional physical interfaces musk

previously mentioned that arbau had been

implanted with the neuralink chip in

January Ary which enabled him to control

a computer mouse through thought

according to arbau the surgery was super

easy and he was discharged from the

hospital just a day later without any

cognitive impairments however arbau and

musk are quick to remind everyone that

this technology is still in its infancy

while ARA's life has significantly

improved allowing him to engage in

activities he thought were lost to him

he notes that the journey is far from

Over the technology is not perfect and

they've encountered some issues along

the way signaling a long road ahead

filled with Improvement and enhancements

Kip Ludwig a former program director for

neural engineering at the US National

Institutes of Health echoed this

sentiment he stated that while what

neuralink has demonstrated is far from a

breakthrough it represents a vital step

forward for the patient and the field of

neural engineering it's still early days

for the implant and both neuralink and

arbau are learning to maximize control

and interaction capabilities However the

fact that arbau can interact with a

computer in ways he couldn't before is a

positive development adding to the

Intrigue neuralink has been under

scrutiny by the US Food and Drug

Administration which found issues with

recordkeeping and quality controls for

animal experiments this came shortly

after neuralink announced it had

received clearance to test its brain

implants in humans the company had not

responded to inquiries regarding the

fda's findings at the time during the

live stream arbos shared his

astonishment at the technology comparing

it to using the force from the Star Wars

films to move the cursor on his screen

this intuitive control mechanism has

transformed his interaction with

technology making everyday tasks

feasible once again musk on the other

hand has been promoting this

demonstration as an example of telepathy

showcasing the potential for humans to

control computers purely through thought

neurolinks achievements come in the wake

of similar efforts by other companies

such as australia-based synchron

synchron has also developed a brain

computer interface albeit through a less

invasive method that doesn't require

surgery on the skull they successfully

implanted their device in a patient back

in July 2022 indicating a growing

interest and advancement in the field of

neural technology Elon Musk took to

Twitter to celebrate this Milestone

calling it a demonstration of telepathy

the ability to control a computer and

play video games by mirly thinking this

event not only marks a significant step

for neuralink but also sets the stage

for future Innovations musk teas the

next product blindsight aimed at

restoring vision for those born blind

signaling neurolinks ambitious roadmap

ahead we're right at the edge of a huge

change in the way we use technology and

it's it's just the start for neuralink

sure the tech isn't perfect and there

are some bumps along the way but the

chance to really make a difference in

people's lives is huge seeing arbaugh

play chess with just his thoughts gives

us a peak into a future where we're not

just solving problems with tools and

gadgets but with the incredible power of

our

minds just one day after retiring its

older hydraulic model Boston Dynamics

has introduced a new electric version of

its Atlas robot this marks a significant

shift away from the noisy hydraulic

mechanisms that characterize previous

models now Atlas is powered by an

electric motor which although not silent

offers a quieter operation that

contrasts sharply with the hydraulic

systems distinctive sounds the unveiling

of this new version was captured in a

compelling video it opens with Atlas

lying prone on a set of interlocking gym

mats accompanied only by the soft

worrying of its new electric

motor as the camera pans around the

robot begins a seemingly natural motion

of bending its legs at the knees this

movement initially reminiscent Of Human

Action soon crosses into an uncanny

valley evoking a feeling similar to a

scene from a Sam Ry film this clever

maneuver allows Atlas to shift from

lying on its back to standing upright

facing away from the camera it then

performs an eerie rotation of its head

followed by its torso completing a 180°

turn to face the camera directly the

robot's face featuring a ring light

around a perfectly round screen then

rotates back as Atlas strides off the

mats and out of the frame this new

electric Atlas is not just a

technological Evolution but also a

symbolic one mirroring the

transformative moment when Bob Dylan

famously switch from acoustic to

electric guitar the motion of the new

Atlas while still showing some jerky

movements is notably smoother and more

fluid compared to many of the commercial

humanoids introduced in recent years

this progress illustrates a level of

mechanical sophistication that brings to

mind the confident and fluid movements

of spot another robot from Boston

Dynamics suggesting a familiar

resemblance in their design philosophies

physical appearance of Atlas has

undergone a radical transformation gone

are the bulky torso and awkward bowed

legs covered in protective plating

replaced by a streamlined cable-free

frame that bears more resemblance to

contemporary robots like agility digit

and aptronix Apollo this redesign leans

towards aof softer more approachable

aesthetic issuing the intimidating

utilitarian look of past models for a

friendlier cartoonish appearance despite

these substantial changes Boston

Dynamics has chosen to retain the atlas

name continuing the legacy of its

well-known brand into this new

commercial phase this decision contrasts

with previous practices where research

names were changed upon commercial

release such as spot mini becoming spot

and handle becoming stretch in an

interview with tech crunch Boston

Dynamic CEO Robert later discussed the

company's strategy and future plans for

Atlas he highlighted that while The

Branding remains unchanged for now it

might be Revisited as the project

progresses toward mass production the

CEO also outlined the company's timeline

which includes starting pilot testing of

the electric Atlas at Hyundai facilities

early next year with broader

manufacturing goals set for the

subsequent years plater emphasized the

importance of understanding specific use

cases to ensure that the investment in

robotics is justified by sufficient

productivity gains he revealed that

experiments with Hyundai are already

underway indicating a collaborative

effort in refining the robot's design

and functionality the flexibility and

range of motion in the new Atlas are

particularly noteworthy according to

pler the robot incorporates custom

high-powered actuators at most joints

which afforded the power and Agility of

an elite athlete this capability is not

just for show it has practical

implications in industrial applications

where robots must perform complex

Dynamic tasks reliably Boston Dynamics

is known for its viral videos that often

highlight the agility and dexterity of

its robots in dramatic even theatrical

ways while these demonstrations are

visually impressive and entertaining

they also serve a practical Purpose By

showcasing the robot's capabilities in

scenarios that might occur in real world

settings for example the video's

depiction of Atlas starting from a prone

position and then standing up

underscores its ability to recover from

Falls an essential feature for

maintaining productivity without human

intervention in industrial environments

the design choices extend to the robot's

hands which now feature three fingers

instead of the more humanlike four or

five this simplification reduces

mechanical complexity and enhances

durability crucial for repetitive

industrial tasks the robot's head has

also been redesigned Now featuring a

large round screen that adds a touch of

friendliness and enhances interaction

capabilities which pler notes will be

critical as robots increasingly work

alongside humans over overall the new

electric Atlas is a big step forward in

the world of humanoid robots combining

high tech features with Smart Designs to

meet the growing needs of businesses and

factories as Boston Dynamics keeps

improving this robot everyone in the

industry will be watching closely

they're eager to see how these new

features will actually help improve

efficiency and productivity in the real

world so a company called Sanctuary AI

just announced a major collaboration

with none other than Microsoft and it's

all about accelerating the development

of next gen AI models for general

purpose robots this is huge now for

those not familiar with Sanctuary AI let

me give you a quick rundown these folks

are on an ambitious mission to create

the world's first humanlike intelligence

in general purpose robots yeah we're

talking about artificial general

intelligence or AGI the Holy Grail of AI

that can truly understand and interact

with the world just like us humans but

here's the thing sanctuary AI isn't just

some Scrappy startup talking big game

these guys have some serious pedigree

we're talking Founders from pioneering

companies like d-wave the first

commercial Quantum Computing firm

Kindred which introduced reinforcement

learning to production robots and the

creative destruction lab known for

Innovative science commercialization

their team is stacked with veterans from

Tech Titans like Amazon Microsoft and

SoftBank robotics in other words these

folks have been at the Forefront of some

of the most groundbreaking Innovations

in a AI Robotics and Computing so when

they make bold claims about pushing the

boundaries of AGI you can't help but

take them seriously so what exactly does

this collaboration with Microsoft entail

well it's all about harnessing the power

of Microsoft's Azure Cloud to

supercharge the development of what

Sanctuary AI calls large Behavior models

or lbms think of these as the next

Evolution Beyond large language models

like GPT AI systems designed to learn

from from and understand real world

experiences and interactions by

leveraging azure's Massive Computing

resources for training inference

networking and storage Sanctuary AI can

turbocharge their efforts in developing

these cuttingedge lbms which are

critical Stepping Stones on the path to

achieving AGI now just a few weeks ago

Sanctuary AI unveiled the seventh

generation of their Flagship robot

Phoenix and the upgrades and

improvements they've packed into this

latest iteration are nothing short of

mind-blowing we're talking increased

uptime enhanced visual perception

improved tactile sensing and get this an

expanded range of humanlike motion in

the wrists hands and elbows this thing

is designed to mimic the dexterity and

range of motion of an actual human which

is just insane when you think about it

and here's the cool part Sanctuary AI

has achieved all of these advancements

in just 11 months since their Sixth Gen

Phoenix robot which was one of time's

best inventions of 2023 they've been

moving forward really fast and it's

almost hard hard to believe according to

Sanctuary AI CEO Jordi Rose this 7th gen

Phoenix is one of the most sophisticated

human behavioral data capture

Technologies available today essentially

it's providing their carbon AI Control

System with some of the highest quality

highest Fidelity training data out there

which is critical for developing those

Advanced lbms and pushing towards AGI

but perhaps the most mind-blowing stat

of all is that the time it takes to

automate new tasks has been slashed from

weeks to less than 24 hours that's a 50x

increase in automation speed marking a

pivotal moment in the capability of

autonomous systems just let that sink in

for a second automating complex tasks in

under a day the potential applications

across Industries like manufacturing

Logistics and more are staggering now

Sanctuary AI is making some seriously

bold claims here stating that this

seventh gen system is the closest analog

to a human of any available robot today

that's a hefty assertion no doubt but

coming from a team with the pedigree and

track record that these folks have you

can't just dismiss it out of hand of

course with any groundbreaking

technology there are always ethical

considerations and potential risks to

weigh the development of advanced Ai and

Robotics is no exception with concerns

around safety transparency unintended

consequences and the impact on human

labor looming large to their credit

Sanctuary AI seems acutely aware of

these issues they've stressed a

commitment to responsible development

and addressing labor challeng Alles in a

way that augments human workers not

replaces them the name Sanctuary itself

is meant to convey a controlled secure

environment for nurturing AI responsibly

before commercial deployment make no

mistake the road ahead is sure to be

filled with immense challenges both

Technical and ethical but if companies

like Sanctuary Ai and their all-star

teams can continue this blistering pace

of innovation while keeping responsible

development at the Forefront we may just

witness some truly mind-bending

breakthroughs in the coming years the

age of ubiquitous multi-purpose robotic

assistance powered by humanlike

artificial intelligence is on the

horizon and with Visionary pioneers and

Powerful Partnerships like this one

leading the charge that future might be

a lot closer than any of us could have

imagined so unry just dropped the

trailer for their new unry G1 humanoid

robot and this thing is mind-blowing the

flexibility proficiency and overall

capabilities of this robot are really

something else I'm going to explain and

show you exactly why this robot is such

a Game Changer all right so there's a

lot to unpack here and this robot is

genuinely revolutionary first off you

might have noticed that it looks kind of

similar to Boston dynamic's recently

unveiled Atlas robot now I don't think

unry managed to create this robot in

just the 3 weeks since that trailer came

out something like this takes a long

time to develop but what it does show is

that unry is evolving faster than a lot

of people expected and they're

delivering some seriously impressive

Tech at a relatively affordable price

point the G1 starts at just

$166,000 which is cheaper than any other

humanoid robot with these kinds of

capabilities one of the things that

really stood out to me in this demo was

the insane flexibility and range of

motion as you can see here this robot

can swivel around in ways that humans

simply can't and its legs have a much

greater range of motion they've also

managed to internalize the wiring using

Hollow joint technology which allows for

more efficient movement and a more

compact design this trailer really

hammers home the fact that the robot

race is on I don't think anyone

predicted that unry would release

something like this so soon I would have

expected it to come from a company like

Boston Dynamics first and while Boston

Dynamics might be using hydraulic

actuators or fully electric systems the

g1's movement capabilities suggests that

it's going to be able to handle a huge

range of tasks that we might not have

even considered yet another thing that

really impressed me was the robot

stability when taking impacts now I'm

not saying we should go around punching

robots that might not end well if they

decide to rebel against us down the line

but in all seriousness the fact that

this robot can take a solid hit to the

chest and remain completely stable is a

remarkable feat of Engineering in real

world applications robots might

encounter things like wind debris or

unexpected collisions and being able to

stay upright and keep functioning in

those situations is hugely important

most humans would probably hit the

ground if they took a punch like that so

this is a really exciting development

we've seen similar demonstration of

stability from unry before with their H1

robot but the G1 takes it to a whole new

level if you tried this with most other

humanoid robots on the market they'd

topple over in an instant the fact that

unry has achieved this level of

stability without even using external

support cables is mindblowing usually in

these kinds of Robotics demos you'll see

the robot Tethered to the ceiling or

something to prevent Falls because

balance is one of the biggest challenges

in the early stages of development but

unry has created a Rob bot that can take

a beating and stay on its feet with all

the wiring hidden internally that's a

massive accomplishment the speed of the

G1 is also really impressive it can

reach speeds of up to 3.3 m/s which is

just shy of the world record set by

unit's previous robot for context that's

about 2 m/s which is almost a running

pace we haven't seen anything close to

that from other humanoid robotics

companies the Tesla bot for example can

walk pretty smoothly but it's not moving

nearly as fast as this and I can't

imagine they'd be too eager to have

someone kick it around to test its

stability so in terms of overall

performance I'd argue that the unry G1

is probably one of the best humanoid

robots out there right now one of the

things that absolutely blew me away was

the robot's ability to learn tasks

through simulation and then apply them

in the real world using imitation and

reinforcement learning they can train

the robot to perform complex actions in

a simulated environment like nvidia's

Isaac s dim and then transfer those

skills to the physical robot watching it

move you can see how precise and subtle

The Joint movements are and the fact

that it can maintain its balance while

performing these tasks autonomously is

staggering this has huge implications

for robotics research because until now

most humanoid platforms have been really

expensive which makes them hard to

access for a lot of labs and

universities the unitri H1 for example

was a great research platform but its

high cost was a big barrier with the G1

coming in at a lower price point we're

going to see a lot more people getting

their hands on this Tech and pushing the

boundaries of what's possible and then

there are the hands previous unitary

robots were criticized for their lack of

dextrous manipulators but the G1 has

hands that can grasp and manipulate

objects with Incredible Precision it can

crush a walnut flip a piece of bread and

even pop open a soda can like it's

nothing the level of control and fine

motor skills on display here is just

insane they also mentioned something

called the unitary robot unified large

model which seems to be some kind of AI

system that allows the robot to perform

these tasks autonomously there aren't a

lot of details available yet but I'm

guessing it's a machine learning model

that's been trained on a huge data set

of simulated and real world interactions

as more information comes out I'll be

sure to update you all one of the other

key things they demonstrate is the

robot's ability to perform very precise

movements like soldering electronic

components this opens up a whole new

range of potential applications in

fields like manufacturing and assembly

but perhaps the most exciting thing

about the G1 is its price at just

$116,000 for the base model it's nearly

10 times cheaper than unit's previous

humanoid robot which was listed at

around

$150,000 that's a massive leap in

affordability and it's going to make

this technology accessible to a much

wider range of researchers and

developers we've already seen some of

the incredible things that people have

been doing with un's H1 platform for

example researchers at Shanghai Tech and

Mars lab recently presented a framework

for humanoid parkour learning which

allows the robot to navigate rough

terrain jump onto High platforms leap

over hurdles and more all using only

vision and proception it's a fully

endtoend system which is a huge

accomplishment in the field of Robotics

the problem is that a lot of academic

Labs struggle to get funding for this

kind of research because they simply

can't afford the expensive Hardware but

with the G1 we're going to see an

explosion of new projects and

discoveries I mean the H1 could do a

full backflip which is just mindboggling

for a robot with such basic actuators

imagine what people are going to do with

the g1's advanced capabilities so to sum

up the unitary G1 is an absolute

GameChanger its combination of

flexibility stability dexterity and

affordability is unparalleled and it's

going to open up a whole new world of

possibilities in the field of Robotics I

cannot wait to see what researchers and

developers do with with this platform

once it starts shipping in the next few

months the robotics race is heating up

and unry has just shown that China is a

serious Contender on the global stage

they're innovating at an incredible pace

and they're making this technology

accessible in a way that no one else has

done before so keep an eye on unry I

have a feeling we're going to be seeing

a lot more groundbreaking developments

from them in the very near future now

here's some interesting news from the

United Arab Emirates this announcement

comes from Abu dhabi's Technology

Innovation Institute also known as tii

they've launched the Falcon 2 Series

featuring two impressive models Falcon

211b and Falcon 211b vlm so Falcon 211b

is as they say a super powerful

text-based AI designed to understand and

generate human-like text meanwhile

Falcon 211b VM is a vision to language

model this means it can take an image

and generate a detailed text description

of it let's talk about why the UAE is

making such big moves in AI known for

its vast oil reserves the UAE is now

pouring massive investments into

artificial intelligence this shift

hasn't gone unnoticed in fact us

officials took note last year issuing a

strong ultimatum for the UAE to choose

between American and Chinese Tech in

response emirati AI firm g42 cut ties

with Chinese companies Paving the way

for a whopping $1.5 billion investment

from Microsoft this strategic pivot was

carefully coordinated with Washington

showcasing the uae's serious commitment

to advancing in the AI space the release

of Falcon 2 comes as countries and

companies worldwide are racing to

develop their own large language models

and while some companies keep their AI

Tech proprietary others like the uae's

Falcon and meta's llama are going open

source looking ahead the uae's

substantial investments in AI are

positioning the country as a significant

player on the Global Tech stage the

Falcon 2 Series is just the beginning

with the anticipated Falcon 3 already in

the

works so a new AI humanoid robot has

been unveiled by a company called robot

era and it's pretty crazy this robot

called x-and is apparently a game

changer in the world of embodied AI now

embodied AI is all about creating robots

that can interact with the real world

just like humans do and this x-and robot

seems to be taking things to the next

level so it has 12 active degrees of

freedom which means it can move and bend

in all sorts of ways just like human

bodies it's also got built-in tactile

sensors so it can actually feel and

sense things it

touches and the control Precision is

supposed to be topnotch allowing for

smooth and reliable

[Music]

movements but here's the kicker robot

era claims that the technology behind

xand is fully self-developed which is

pretty impressive for a relatively new

player in the Robotics and AI game

they were only founded in 2023 but

they're already pushing the boundaries

of what's

possible now we don't know how much this

robot is going to cost or when it'll be

available to the public because robot

era is keeping those details under wraps

for now but from what they've shown us

it looks like xand is specifically

designed to embody AI which could be a

big deal as we get closer to achieving

AGI and speaking of AGI there's been a

lot of hype lately about it potentially

happening sooner rather than later I'm

not even joking around some experts are

saying we might be on the verge of a

breakthrough in this field now let's

talk a bit more about robot era and what

they've been up to they're focused on

developing general purpose humanoid

robots which is pretty ambitious stuff

one of their main projects is called

humanoid gym which uses reinforcement

learning to train robots to perform

tasks in a way that mimics human

capabilities they're using this cool

concept called zero shot Sim to real

transfer which basically means they can

train the robots in a simulated

environment first and then deploy them

in the real world without any additional

training but enough talking for me let's

check out this x-and robot in action and

see what it can really do robot era has

released a Showcase Video and I've got

to say the capabilities they're

demonstrating are pretty fascinating

let's roll that footage and see what

this bad boy can do

[Music]

you might remember a little while back

when I covered robot era that ambitious

startup that unveiled their crazy

dextrous x-and AI robot well they just

one up themselves in a major way by

becoming the first company ever to have

a full-size humanoid robot walk on the

Great Wall of China so their latest

robot called the Xbox L conquered one of

the most iconic and challenging

landscapes in the world the ancient

stone pathways and steep stairs of the

great freaking Wall of China this is a

huge milestone not just for robota but

for humanoid robotics as a whole so a

5'5 165 cm tall robot looking kind of

like a slimmed down Terminator marching

its way across those uneven Century Old

Stone Surfaces without faltering it was

waving hello practicing Kung Fu moves

climbing up and down stairs the whole n

yards and to be honest the Great Wall is

no walk in the park even for us humans

those paths are cracked the stairs are

crazy steep with no railings there are

random potholes everywhere it's an

obstacle course designed to trip up any

bipedal robot but the xbot L handled it

all with surprising ease thanks to Robo

tera's Advanced perceptive reinforcement

learning algorithms basically this robot

can actually perceive and make sense of

its environment in real time using

sensors and AI it can identify obstacles

changes in terrain and literally adapt

its walking gate and balance on the fly

to deal with whatever the Great Wall

throws at it according to UA shei one of

the co-founders their perceptive

reinforcement learning Tech gives the

xpot L something like human level

awareness and decision-making

capabilities in unfamiliar environments

the robot can essentially think for

itself about the best way to navigate

complex areas safely and efficiently and

we're not just talking about some basic

pre-programmed motions here the xot L

was climbing rugged Castle stairs

dealing with slopes and inclines

avoiding obstacles adapting to poor

lighting conditions all without any

human guidance or help it was basically

pulling off the kind of adaptive

intelligent situationally aware movement

that we associate with people robota

says this was one of the biggest

challenges developing endtoend AI

algorithms that could translate

perceived data from the robot sensors

into precise stable Locomotion in the

real world across an ultra complex

environment like the Great Wall sounds

like they crack C that nut though based

on this demo what's really crazy is that

this Great Wall feat comes just a couple

weeks after they showed off the x-and

dextrous robot I mentioned earlier

between these two products it's clear

robot era is going all in on embodied AI

building robots with humanlike physical

capabilities to operate in our world and

they're not messing around either

despite only being founded in 2023

they've already invested heavily into

Cutting Edge AI Tech like reinforcement

learning neural networks Sim tooreal

transfer and more basically everything

needed to create robots that can tackle

the real world just like we do their

goal seems to be keeping that

Competitive Edge by iterating and

churning out smarter more capable

humanoid robot products at a rapid pace

and they want to keep perfecting ways to

transfer all that AI training from

simulations into physical machines

enabling those robots to become more

versatile in real life scenarios the end

game seems to be developing Ultra

flexible general purpose humanoid robots

for countless valuable applications

across Industries like manufacturing

healthcare services and more I've got to

give robot Terra props deliberately

putting their robot through the ringer

on the Great Wall as some kind of

extreme stress test shows serious

confidence in their Tech most companies

would avoid something that risky with a

brand new product but the fact that the

xbot L could pull it off so smoothly is

really impressive it's an amazing proof

of concept for their embodied AI

approach and perceptive reinforcement

learning systems working in one of the

toughest real world environments to me

this this demonstrates robot tera's

outstanding core capabilities in fields

like robotics Ai mechatronics and more

they are clearly at The Cutting Edge

when it comes to embodied intelligence

and making it work reliably in the real

world I'm really looking forward to

whatever crazy robot robot comes up with

next if they keep raising the bar like

this they could legitimately help usher

in the age of advanced human-like robots

that can operate autonomously in our

world on an unprecedented level we're

potentially on the cusp of some big

breakthroughs in artificial general

intelligence or AGI becoming a reality

over the next few years and if anyone

can build the physical robotic bodies to

house and manifest that future AGI it

might just be an ambitious little

Pioneer like roboterra when it comes to

developing super Advanced AI systems

like AGI the situation with

whistleblowers at open AI shows just how

high the stakes really are roa's

achievement with their robot on the

Great Wall is definitely impressive from

an embodied AI perspective but

achievements like that could potentially

seem tiny compared to the impacts both

positive and negative that creating a

general Artificial Intelligence on the

same level as human cognition could have

on Society on one hand AGI represents

this incredible technological

breakthrough that could help solve

countless challenges humanity is facing

from unsolved scientific Mysteries to

Global crises a generalized AI mind that

matches human intelligence has always

been viewed as something that could be a

catalyst for transformative advances

across every field but on the other hand

the existential risks of an unaligned

superintelligent AGI that's smarter than

humans simply can't be overstated we're

talking about the potential for an

advanced AI system to break free from

Human control with catastrophic

consequences for our species and the

planet if it's not developed safely and

responsibly the open AI insiders are

ringing alarm Bells about this exact

scenario playing out they alleg the

company is recklessly rushing towards

AGI Supremacy without taking proper

safety precautions d driven more by

competitive pressures to be first rather

than doing it the right way damning

claims like open AI ignoring their own

safety review processes muzzling

employees with really strict

non-disparagement agreements and

deprioritizing safety work after

founding members raised concerns paint a

very worrying picture if true it

suggests one of the leading AI Labs is

taking an extremely risky and unethical

approach in this existential race for

AGI the fact that respected researchers

like Ilia Suk felt compelled to design

due to open ai's perceived lack of

commitment to keeping AGI safe and

aligned only adds more credibility to

the whistleblower's Grievances in my

opinion their letter calling for greater

transparency protecting employees and

ultimately having the government

regulate this powerful technology to

keep Bad actors in check feels like a

reasonable and perhaps necessary step to

prevent potential disaster scenarios

because let's be real we simply can't

afford a situation where the first Super

intelligent AGI that emerges is

catastrophically misaligned with human

ethics and values exercising restraint

and prioritizing responsible development

have to be the top priorities of course

the whistleblowers likely have some

level of bias given their philosophical

views and ties to effective altruism

movements so I'd encourage taking more

of a neutral stance personally but even

accounting for that bias the sheer

magnitude of what's at stake with AGI

certainly warrants a strong commitment

to prioritizing safety measures and

ethical boundaries over competitive

pressures and Commercial interests from

companies like open AI not properly

aligning an emergent AGI could risk

irreparably disrupting human
