As robots advance in terms of dexterity and other physical capabilities, it becomes more likely that humans may find themselves working alongside them. If that happens, how will robots’ emotional capabilities need to advance for them to successfully work with people?
In a recent study, researchers trained collaborative robots to read human emotions by not only accounting for facial expressions, but also contextual factors in the interactions as well. Through experiments with 40 volunteers, the res

CoorDex: Coordinating Body and Hand Priors for Continuous Dexterous Humanoid Loco-Manipulation

My suitcase robot gets high now off a real gas sensor wired straight into the LLM sampler. Smoke raises temperature/top_p/top_k live, so his speech genuinely gets loopier and never repeats.
