Robots could soon spend far more time practising in virtual worlds before they are deployed in real homes, factories and other environments. Researchers at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) and Toyota Research Institute have developed SceneSmith, a system that uses AI agents to automatically create detailed 3D environments where robots can practise tasks and test different action plans. The main idea behind this is to address one of the biggest challenges in robotics: Training robots with diverse data without physically teaching them every task in the real world.The ask here is simple, and what has been created is very interesting to see how it unfolds.
