The Next Einstein: New AI Can Develop New Theories of Physics

Posted by in categories: physics, robotics/AI

Their AI is able to recognize patterns in complex data sets and to formulate them in a physical theory. The development of a new theory is typically associated with the greats of physics. You might think of Isaac Newton or Albert Einstein, for example. Many Nobel Prizes have already been awarded for new theories. Researchers at Forschungszentrum Jülich have now programmed an artificial intelligence that has also mastered this feat. Their AI is able to recognize patterns in complex data sets and to formulate them in a physical theory.

In the following interview, Prof. Moritz Helias from Forschungszentrum Jülich’s Institute for Advanced Simulation (IAS-6) explains what the “Physics of AI” is all about and to what extent it differs from conventional approaches.

Video: GPT-enhanced humanoid speaks and reasons as it works

Posted by in categories: robotics/AI, transportation

Figure has demonstrated the first fruit of its collaboration with OpenAI to enhance the capabilities of humanoid robots. In a video released today, the Figure 1 bot is seen conversing in real-time.

The development progress at Figure is nothing short of extraordinary. Entrepreneur Brett Adcock only emerged from stealth last year, after gathering together a bunch of key players from Boston Dynamics, Tesla Google DeepMind and Archer Aviation to “create the world’s first commercially viable general purpose humanoid robot.”
