New DeepMind AI model can control robotic actions it was never trained to do

Google DeepMind has a new AI model that can control robotic tasks it’s never been trained to do. Named RT-2, the model learns from web and robotics data. It then turns this information into simple instructions for machines. In tests, the model was asked to perform actions never seen in the robotic data, such as placing oranges in a matching bowl. To follow these commands, the system had to translate knowledge from web-based data. According to DeepMind, the model had a 62% success for these operations — double that of its predecessor, RT-1. “Just like language models are trained on…
