The man who made robots dance now wants them to think for themselves

The Boston Dynamics AI Institute, founded by Marc Raibert, is focused on developing robots that can comprehend and handle complex situations without human assistance. While Boston Dynamics' robots have garnered attention for their physical capabilities, the institute aims to enhance their cognitive abilities. Raibert discusses the institute's mission and its efforts to incorporate language models and reinforcement learning into robotics. The goal is to advance AI beyond large language models and explore the integration of physical and cognitive intelligence. The institute is also working on projects such as bicycle repair robots and dexterous manipulation. Raibert addresses concerns about robots and AI becoming dangerous, emphasizing that most bad things in the world do not come from robots.
