[OpenAI Accelerates Embodied Intelligence Development, Sam Altman States 'Will Definitely Develop Humanoid Robots'] Beating AI News Flash: OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated that the company 'will definitely develop humanoid robots,' while also exploring other forms of robots. Altman believes that since a large number of facilities and tools in the real world are designed around humans, humanoid structures are better suited for physical environments. OpenAI is currently restructuring its robotics team and recruiting talent in areas such as robot control algorithms, actuator design, data collection, and embodied intelligence (Embodied AI). Previously, OpenAI had shut down its early robotics project around 2021 due to a lack of sufficient real-world data to train robotic systems. Now, with advancements in large models and robotic data systems, the company is refocusing on this field. Altman has also repeatedly expressed interest in embodied intelligence and humanoid robots, stating that if AI possesses capabilities close to general intelligence but cannot perform tasks in the real world, it would be a limitation.
