Phone2Proc: Bringing Robust Robots Into Our Chaotic World
|
|
|
Training embodied agents in simulation has become mainstream for the embodied AI community. However, these agents often struggle when deployed in the physical world due to their inability to generalize to real-world environments. AI2's PRIOR team has improved this process with a new embodied AI training approach: Phone2Proc. This three-step process allows you to train for successful, robust agent behavior in a real environment.

With OpenAI's ChatGPT and Bing's new chatbot, AI models are being centered in news coverage and making people more aware of artificial intelligence's technical strides. But there is also plenty of misunderstanding surrounding this coverage, which brings the spotlight back to the importance of AI literacy. In a piece written jointly by AI & Society lead Nicole DeCario and AI2's interim CEO Peter Clark, the two identify five tips for engaging with chatbots responsibly.

Objaverse: A Universe of Annotated 3D Objects
|
|
|
3D datasets have historically been hard to come by, making it difficult to train robots to understand real-world environments. AI2's PRIOR team has responded to this challenge with Objaverse, a gigantic and diverse database of 3D models. As Devin Coldewey from TechCrunch explains, "Objaverse includes variations on common objects so the model can learn what defines them despite their differences."

A Computer Vision System That Writes Code
|
|
|
In a recent effort, the PRIOR team has created a computer vision system called VisProg that solves complex compositional tasks described in natural language by generating and executing programs. Each line of the generated program may invoke one of several off-the-shelf computer vision models, image processing routines, or python functions to produce intermediate outputs that may be consumed by subsequent parts of the program. In other words, VisProg solves tasks by writing code!
