A 'dream team' consisting of the five brightest scientists in the field of AI worldwide recently revealed the launch of Robust.AI, a new start-up aimed at revolutionizing the industry. Robots with the core platform are artificial intelligence.
According to a post on Robust.AI's official website, the company intends to create real-world navigable robot models with real autonomy:
"Modern robots today are quite intelligent but extremely limited in their autonomy. They are usually only used in environments with strict control, as well as being unable to operate in a dynamic environment. dynamic, open to high self-determination, and at the same time not equipped with the technology necessary to deal with unexpected situations, we are building a foundation of industrial strength awareness - the first foundation First in the field of robot development - aims to allow robots to become intelligent, cooperative, powerful, safe and truly self-reliant, with the participation of the most advanced artificial intelligence science applications This new generation robot will be extremely useful, can help people in countless real situations see off, from housework, construction, delivery, to support scientific research '.
- MIT strives to develop an AI model that can drive almost like a human
According to co-founder Robust.AI Gary Marcus, the robotics field has great potential to change people's lives in a better way. However, the application of robots in almost every field seems too limited. Ordinary robots can only work in an environment that is heavily restricted by humans, they are not flexible. It can be said that robots are now working more like automation machines than a self-propelled technology device.
However in the past few years. Startups in the high-tech sector in general and artificial intelligence in particular have sprung up like mushrooms after rain. While the contribution of such startup projects to the task of changing human life is still too vague, humanity needs a real push to change, and Robust.AI is expected to have the name can do that. Robust.AI brings two important things that most other start-up companies in the field of robotics or other artificial intelligence do not have.
- The future of AI and people is cooperation
The first is the outstanding talent, Robust.AI is 'holding in' 5 of the scientists who are considered to have the best minds in the field of AI. Giving good ideas to these individuals is just like having a "meal".
The five co-founders of Robust.AI, and also five of the leading AI in today's AI, include:
- CEO Gary Marcus : NYU Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience.
- CTO Robert Brooks : Former director of CSAIL's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), founder of the iRobot project.
- CSO Mohamed R. Amer : Senior technical director at Vision Technology Center (enter for Vision Technologies), SRI International.
- COO Anthony Jules : Former CTO of Formant, former COO of Redwood Robotics.
- Henrik Christensen: President of Qualcomm Robotics and Professor at the University of California (UCSD).
Second is a bold way of thinking: Giving more autonomy to robots.
- Bad news for journalists: Robots are increasingly able to 'snatch' better
In fact, it is difficult to find such a perfect group of individuals to form a startup company of artificial intelligence robots. Robust.AI can be said to be a dream team of global AI technology. Gary Marcus and Robert Brooks are both the most famous AI experts in the world today - and are critics of the hype surrounding contemporary deep learning technologies. Meanwhile, Mohamed R. Amer, Anthony Jules and Henrik Christensen are also world-class experts in their own way.
However, talent and bravery are one thing, scientists will need a lot of time to learn how to collaborate with each other as much as possible, and imbued with the development orientation of robots with the ability to solve problems like people. To succeed, they must ensure that.
- The difference between AI (Artificial Intelligence) and Cognitive Computing (Cognitive Computing)
In essence, the team hopes to be able to incorporate modern deep learning techniques with a new method called symbolic artificial intelligence. Theoretically, breeding both technologies and applying them to robots will help these complex machines possess the ability to learn and solve problems more like humans. In fact, there is still a lot of controversy surrounding the proper use of AI, especially in equipping AI on robots to help them become more autonomous, even operating independently with their children. people. However, the current situation also shows that this model seems to be mired.
- How did AI affect daily life?
The combination of the 'dream team' Robust.AI and their idea can be considered an interesting development model for AI enthusiasts and robots. Nowadays, everyone knows that robots possess great application potential, how to develop and use it properly is not an easy problem. In fact, humanity is still very confused in this, and the special expectation for Robust.AI is also understandable.
