- Technology
In this episode, the focus was on the advancements in robotic learning by Google's DeepMind team. The team introduced RT-2, an innovation that builds upon its previous creation, the Robotics Transformer or RT-1. Unlike RT-1, which required extensive training to perform tasks, RT-2 can learn from relatively small datasets and apply these learnings to different scenarios, demonstrating a shift from strictly trained actions to a more abstract understanding of tasks. The episode also discussed the concept of transformer models in AI, their increasing relevance in fields ranging from translation to drug discovery, and the ongoing research to make them even more efficient. In the tools section, the AI-based chatbot DashAI by DoorDash, currently under testing, was explored. DashAI aims to provide personalized restaurant recommendations to users and potentially redefine food ordering.
