A Brief History of Embodied Artificial Intelligence, and its Outlook
Embodied Artificial Intelligence (EAI) integrates artificial intelligence into physical entities like robots, endowing them with the ability to perceive, learn from, and dynamically interact with their environment. This post serves as a brief review of the history of EAI, its current developments, as well as a discussion of its future outlook. 1.
Measuring GitHub Copilot’s Impact on Productivity
Code-completion systems offering suggestions to a developer in their integrated development environment (IDE) have become the most frequently used kind of programmer assistance. 1 When generating whole snippets of code, they typically use a large language model (LLM) to predict what the user might type next (the completion) from the context of what they are working on at the moment (the prompt ...
Building Computing Systems for Embodied Artificial Intelligence
Mar 21, 2024 · Embodied AI involves embedding artificial intelligence into tangible entities, such as robots, equipping them with the capacity to perceive, learn from, and engage dynamically with their surroundings [1].
