Google\u2019s parent company Alphabet is bringing together two of its most ambitious research projects \u2014 robotics and AI language understanding \u2014 in an attempt to make a \u201chelper robot\u201d that can understand natural language commands.<\/p>\n

Since 2019<\/a>, Alphabet been developing robots that can carry out simple tasks like fetching drinks and cleaning surfaces. This Everyday Robots project is still in its infancy \u2014 the robots are slow and hesitant<\/a> \u2014 but the bots have now been given an upgrade: improved language understanding courtesy of Google\u2019s large language model (LLM) PaLM<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Most robots only respond to short and simple instructions, like \u201cbring me a bottle of water.\u201d But LLMs like GPT-3 and Google\u2019s MuM are able to better parse the intent behind more oblique commands. In Google\u2019s example, you might tell one of the Everyday Robots prototypes \u201cI spilled my drink, can you help?\u201d The robot filters this instruction through an internal list of possible actions and interprets it as \u201cfetch me the sponge from the kitchen.\u201d <\/p>\n

Yes, it\u2019s kind of a low bar for an \u201cintelligent\u201d robot, but it\u2019s definitely still an improvement! What would be really smart would be if that robot saw<\/em> you spill a drink, heard<\/em> you shout \u201cgah oh my god my stupid drink\u201d and then<\/em> helped out. <\/p>\n
