The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) showcased a brand new robot training model this week that abandons the previous focus on training methods centered around specific datasets, opting instead for an approach that utilizes vast amounts of information similar to that used in training large language models (LLMs). Researchers noted that imitation learning—where agents learn by mimicking individuals performing tasks—can fail when facing minor challenges. These challenges may include varying lighting conditions, different environmental setups, or new obstacles. In such cases, the robots lack sufficient data to adapt to these changes.

This week, MIT showcased a new model for training robots, aimed at addressing the challenges faced by imitation learning when introduced to small obstacles. Researchers pointed out that imitation learning can fail in conditions such as varying lighting, different environments, or new obstacles because robots simply do not have enough data to adapt. The team sought powerful data methods, like those used in models such as GPT-4, to tackle the problem. They introduced a new architecture called the Heterogeneous Pretrained Transformer (HPT), which aggregates information from different sensors and environments.

Is AI actually starting to ‘get smarter’?! The latest research from MIT indicates that the internal structure of large language models (LLMs) astonishingly resembles that of the human brain!
