OpenAI Considers Two-Armed, Two-Legged Humanoid Robot Amid AI Model Focus
Dec 24, 2024, 05:19 PM
OpenAI has recently discussed the possibility of developing its own two-armed, two-legged humanoid robot, according to reports from The Information. This move comes as the company, known for its ChatGPT AI model, has previously invested in robotics startups like Figure, which received a $625 million funding round, and 1X, which developed the EVE robot. The discussions indicate a potential shift back into robotics for OpenAI, which had closed its robotics division in 2021. Despite this interest, OpenAI's priority remains on developing AI models and software automation tools. The interest in humanoid robots is driven by advancements in both hardware and AI technologies, with potential applications in warehouses and household chores. OpenAI's rumored efforts to develop custom AI chips could further support this venture.
