Episode notes
LLMs: A Turning Point
- Large language models are a turning point for robotics.
- They enable robots to learn from vast amounts of data and perform multiple functions, unlike single-function robots.
Eureka Project
- NVIDIA Research's Eureka project taught a robot hand to spin a pen using large language models.
- This demonstrates the power of LLMs to simplify complex robotic tasks.
NVIDIA's Role
- NVIDIA acts as a foundry for robotics developers.
- They provide a platform for building and deploying AI capabilities in robots, not the robots themselves.
