DeepMind is training embodied agents
13 Dec 2024
OpenAI is training embodied agents. Not precisely true, but certainly something close to this. Sora, the text-to-video AI, makes troublingly real videos, but OpenAI has bigger plans. Sora doesn’t just generate artificial worlds, it also can play characters within those worlds. This seems like a plausible way to simulate some of the embodied-ness most people think is required to create true conscious agents. See also my comments here and here,
