Do-it-all robots aren't ready for our homes.

Scientists at MIT & beyond think compliance might change that: https://t.co/1HSbupGcoh

2025 was the year when artificial intelligence’s full potential roared into view, and when it became clear that there will be no turning back.

For delivering the age of thinking machines, for wowing and worrying humanity, for transforming the present and transcending the possible, the Architects of AI are TIME’s 2025 Person of the Year. https://t.co/NiTkWet1cB

Switzerland is joining Horizon Europe!

We are uniting two research powerhouses.

For cutting-edge innovation that will boost our energy security, digital transformation, health and so much more.

Today is a good day for science, and for our EU-Switzerland partnership.

Un 23 de junio nació el matemático e informático Alan Turing. En 1950 propuso el test de #Turing, una prueba para evaluar la capacidad de una máquina de ser indistinguible de un humano. 🤖 El modelo de IA detrás de ChatGPT, GPT-4, habría superado el test⬇️

Historic!

The EU becomes the very first continent to set clear rules for the use of AI 🇪🇺

The #AIAct is much more than a rulebook — it's a launchpad for EU startups and researchers to lead the global AI race.

The best is yet to come! 👍

In the past, robots have usually required firsthand experience in order to perform an action. But with our new vision-language-action model, RT-2, they can now learn from both text and images from the web to tackle new and complex tasks. Learn more ↓ https://t.co/4DSRwUHhwg

In a new preprint, we assess LLMs’ in-context learning abilities for *abstract* non-linguistic patterns—& explore how this might be useful for robotics.
Examples:
-extrapolating symbolic patterns
-extending periodic motions
-discovering simple policies (e.g. for CartPole)

Code-writing LLMs are surprisingly good at 📝 writing reward functions for 🦾 MPC low-level control – providing a chat-like interface to teach robots to things like "stand up and moon-walk" 🐶

@ylecun But I think the hardest part is to integrate all that in a single system. On one side architectural, on the other side, closing the "gap" of a hybrid AI: high-level symbolic reasoning combined with numerical controllers ( deep machine learning and/or "classical" optimal control)

[Jose de Gea @jdegea]

@ylecun Regarding Point 2: I think we have impressive physical / dynamical skills in some robots (backflipping, dexterous hands...), some other robotics/AI systems able to show reasoning and planning, and AI algorithms with impressive perception capabilities (especially Deep Learning)

Everybody should just calm down about #GPT4, says robotics and AI legend @rodneyabrooks. And don't hold your breath waiting for an artificial general intelligence any time soon, he told me at the IEEE Vision, Innovation, and Challenges Summit https://t.co/CjjBzbV8XY
