OpenAI plans humanoid robots; building robot’s brain biggest challenge, says Sam Altman

WASHINGTON: OpenAI has begun preparing to enter the field of humanoid robots to extend artificial intelligence into the real world. The robots will be able to perform various tasks in everyday life and be used to help people.

According to a UAE news agency, the company’s Chief Executive Sam Altman said the biggest challenge in this effort is building the robot’s brain, so that it can understand the real world, make decisions and carry out tasks correctly.

He said a humanoid design is suited to working in environments built for humans.

OpenAI has not yet disclosed the final design of the robot or the specific tasks it will perform.

However, the company is recruiting experts to develop artificial intelligence systems and technologies that control movement, with which the robots will be able to interact with the real world.

The company aims to build general-purpose robots that can perform a wide range of tasks. Its long-term plan also includes personal robots that can help people in everyday life.

To achieve this, it will be necessary to build systems that can understand their surroundings and respond effectively and safely in unexpected situations.
