OpenAI Ramps Up Robotics Work in Race Toward AGI
The company behind ChatGPT is putting together a team capable of developing algorithms to control robots and appears to be hiring roboticists who work specifically on humanoids.
The role also calls for expertise in simulation tools including Nvidia Isaac, which is widely used to train humanoids by having an algorithm learning inside a virtual physical environment. A renewed focus on robots would suggest that OpenAI believes reaching artificial general intelligence (AGI)—AI that exceeds human intelligence—may require developing algorithms that are capable of interacting with the physical world. Despite already having industry-leading models for conversation, reasoning, coding, and image and video generation, OpenAI will be racing a series of strong competitors as it seeks to develop the algorithms for more capable humanoid robots.
