OpenAI is looking to enter the humanoid robotics market, according to recent reports. The AI company behind ChatGPT wants to combine its AI models with physical robots. This marks a significant shift from their previous robotics efforts.
The Information broke this news based on conversations with two inside sources. These sources say OpenAI has started discussions about building human-like robots. The exact stage of these plans remains unclear.
This isn’t OpenAI’s first attempt at robotics. The company had a robotics division since its start. Wojciech Zaremba led this division. However, they shut it down before releasing GPT-3. Zaremba explained in a podcast that lack of training data was the main problem. The team couldn’t achieve their desired level of robot intelligence.
