A new handheld interface from MIT gives anyone the ability to train a robot for tasks in fields like manufacturing. The versatile tool can teach a robot new skills using one of three approaches: natural teaching, kinesthetic training, & teleoperation: bit.ly/4nTAw6F
Yale Philosophy offers a course on “Formal Philosophical Methods” — a broad introduction to probability, logic, formal semantics, etc. Instructor Calum McNamara has now made all materials for the course (78 pages) freely available static1.squarespace.com/static/6255ffe…

Ok I’ve read it now and as I expected the complaints about it are ill founded. It seems fine. I think it convincingly shows a lot of what I’ve been saying about these thinking models.

How can robots understand spatiotemporal language in novel environments without retraining? 🗣️🤖 In our #IROS2024 paper, we present a modular system that uses LLMs and a VLM to ground spatiotemporal navigation commands in unseen environments described by multimodal semantic maps
Recent results like Apple’s show that LLMs (even o1) flub on reasoning with simple changes to problems that shouldn’t matter. A consensus is building that it shows they are “just pattern matching.” But that metaphor is misleading: good reasoning itself can also be framed as “just…

My (pure) speculation about what OpenAI o1 might be doing [Caveat: I don't know anything more about the internal workings of o1 than the handful of lines about what they are actually doing in that blog post--and on the face of it, it is not more informative than "It uses Python…

RL in POMDPs is hard because you need memory. Remembering *everything* is expensive, and RNNs can only get you so far applied naively. New paper: 🎉 we introduce a theory-backed loss function that greatly improves RNN performance! 🧵 1/n
Ever wonder if LLMs use tools🛠️ the way we ask them? We explore LLMs using classical planners: are they writing *correct* PDDL (planning) problems? Say hi👋 to Planetarium🪐, a benchmark of 132k natural language & PDDL problems. 📜 Preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2407.03321 🧵1/n

Back on April 1st I posted my three laws of robotics. Here are my three laws of AI. 1. When an AI system performs a task, human observers immediately estimate its general competence in areas that seem related. Usually that estimate is wildly overinflated. 2. Most successful AI…
@krishnanrohit It’s likely not about divining a smarter training set. Need fundamental advances in learning to get vastly more efficient scaling, e.g. going beyond next token prediction, or Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks, or something such.
