Oct 11, 2023 · No engineer would come up with such a robot. But in seconds, an AI running a new algorithm did—and it walks. A team of scientists from the University of Vermont, Northwestern University, and MIT created this new approach: the first artificial intelligence that can design unique robots from scratch. “AI is exploding in so many fields right now.

Mar 12, 2025 · Driving the news: Google announced two new Gemini Robotics models, pairing its Gemini 2.0 AI with robots capable of physical action. In video demos, Google showed robots handling an array of tasks. In one demo, a robot was able to understand and execute a command to dunk a miniature basketball in a toy hoop — a task for which it had not been ...

Mar 12, 2025 · Finally, because robots come in all shapes and sizes, Gemini Robotics was also designed to easily adapt to different robot types. We trained the model primarily on data from the bi-arm robotic platform, ALOHA 2 , but we also demonstrated that it could control a bi-arm platform, based on the Franka arms used in many academic labs.
