"DeepMind's RoboCat: Revolutionizing Robotics with Self-Improving AI"
DeepMind's new transformer-based AI, RoboCat, can learn a wide range of skills and switch between different robotic bodies, picking up new skills much faster than normal. It can also accelerate its learning by generating its own training data. The researchers created a dataset focused specifically on robotics challenges, which was used to train a single large model. RoboCat's ability to self-improve and master many different challenges suggests more adaptable robot brains may not be so far off.
