Why can’t robots outrun animals?

stp2y0 CommentsGenAI
Robotics engineers have worked for decades and invested many millions of research dollars in attempts to create a robot that can walk or run as well as an animal. And yet, it remains the case that many animals are capable of feats that would be impossible for robots that exist today. "A wildebeest can migrate for thousands of kilometres over rough terrain, a mountain goat can climb up a literal cliff, finding footholds that don't even seem to be there, and cockroaches can lose a leg and not slow down," says Dr. Max Donelan, Professor in Simon Fraser University's Department…

Startup Blaize Inc., which supplies artificial intelligence chips for edge devices and data centers, today disclosed that it has raised $106 million in fresh funding. The capital was provided by a consortium that included Mercedes Benz, Franklin Templeton and a half-dozen other backers. The round comes less than six months after Blaize announced plans to go public through a merger with a special purpose acquisition company, or SPAC. The chipmaker said at the time that the deal was expected to raise at least $71 million. Most AI models are implemented as a collection of code snippets called artificial neurons. Each…

Microsoft is testing a new feature in its Phone Link app. The PC app will soon allow users to extract text from images that are stored on your Android Phone. The feature uses optical character recognition (OCR), to scan for text in images and saves it to the clipboard. You can then paste it into a text editor or another app of your choice. As you may know, the OCR option is already available in Windows 11's Snipping tool, it was added to the app last year. It is particularly handy when you take a screenshot of an image, and…

Join us in returning to NYC on June 5th to collaborate with executive leaders in exploring comprehensive methods for auditing AI models regarding bias, performance, and ethical compliance across diverse organizations. Find out how you can attend here. As companies race to implement generative AI, concerns about the accuracy and safety of large language models (LLMs) threaten to derail widespread enterprise adoption. Stepping into the fray is Patronus AI, a San Francisco startup that just raised $17 million in Series A funding to automatically detect costly — and potentially dangerous — LLM mistakes at scale. The round, which brings Patronus…
