One of the leading names in the technology world OpenAIcan carry its success in artificial intelligence models to the physical world. of the company, a human-like robot evaluated development plans The Information It was discussed in the report published by. According to the news, based on two sources with direct knowledge of the subject, the details of the project have not yet been clarified and it remains unclear which areas of use the robot will target.

Which areas will be focused on?

Startups currently developing human-like robots generally focus on two main areas of use. The first of these warehouse automation. These robots aim to perform tasks more efficiently, such as moving products from one point to another, and some work directly in production. The second field is general purpose robots dedicated to use. These also target individual users, such as household chores.

OpenAI has invested in several companies operating in these areas. In February, the company developed humanoid robots Figure AIIt supported in a $625 million investment tour. Figure AI’s newest robot Figure 02It can process voice commands from warehouse workers using OpenAI’s artificial intelligence models. BMW is testing this robot in its factory in the USA.

OpenAI is also another humanoid robot manufacturer based in Norway 1XHe also invested in . The company developed EVE The robot named is a wheeled model that can reach a speed of approximately 16 km per hour. 1X is currently working on a consumer-focused robot that is slower but has a wider range of tasks.

Will it develop its own robot or form a partnership?

OpenAI’s current investments are to develop a human-like robot a strategic advantage provides. The company can accelerate this process by partnering with a startup. In addition, OpenAI may purchase an existing company with some of the $6.6 billion fund it has just raised.

It is known that the company is not completely unfamiliar with the world of robotics. Until 2021, OpenAI operated a unit that developed artificial intelligence models for autonomous machines. This unit has achieved several research successes, such as a robotic arm trained to solve a Rubik’s cube.

It is suggested that OpenAI’s new robotics initiatives could also benefit from efforts to develop custom AI chips. According to Reuters, OpenAI is working with Broadcom and TSMC on a type of custom chip. These chips can be optimized to run artificial intelligence software for human-like robots.
