Robotics
Reasoning and reliability in AI
PhD students interning with the MIT-IBM Watson AI Lab look to improve natural language usage.
Multiple AI models help robots execute complex plans more transparently
A multimodal system uses models trained on language, vision, and action data to help robots develop and execute plans for household, construction, and manufacturing tasks.
MIT Generative AI Week fosters dialogue across disciplines
During the last week of November, MIT hosted symposia and events aimed at examining the implications and possibilities of generative AI.
New technique helps robots pack objects into a tight space
Researchers coaxed a family of generative AI models to work together to solve multistep robot manipulation problems.
A method to interpret AI might not be so interpretable after all
Some researchers see formal specifications as a way for autonomous systems to "explain themselves" to humans. But a new study finds that we aren't understanding.
AI copilot enhances human precision for safer aviation
Designed to ensure safer skies, “Air-Guardian” blends human intuition with machine precision, creating a more symbiotic relationship between pilot and aircraft.
