Hosting a robotics event at Antler VC in downtown Austin from 6:30-9:00PM

We’ll have poster presentations and a robotics learning panel with CoRL researchers

We are at capacity with 600 registrations right now, but if you are from out of town and would like to attend DM me and I can try to get you in

"Roboticists are too pain tolerant for their own good"

Earlier this year we held a Robot Learning panel with three postdoctoral researchers from UT Austin: Dr. Nathan Tsoi who works on HRI, Dr. Shuijing Liu (@dafeijing) who works on human-centered robot learning, and Dr. Claas Voelcker (@c_voelcker) who works on RL algorithms.

We covered whether better policies or better evaluation moves the field more, data-driven vs. hybrid methods, whether vision is all you need or if robots need tactile/force sensing, where robot learning sits relative to a "GPT-3 moment," and each panelist's own recent work (co-adaptive value alignment, MimicDroid, and REPPO).

Thank you to Nathan, Shuijing, and Claas for joining this conversation!
