Researchers use generative simulation to unlock infinite training data for robots

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

Researchers present RoboGen, a generative robotic agent that automatically learns new skills in a generative simulation.

The work by researchers from CMU, Tsinghua IIIS, MIT CSAIL, UMass Amherst, and the MIT-IBM AI Lab aims to leverage recent advances in generative AI to generate infinite training data for automated robot learning.

According to the team, RoboGen is a generative robotic agent that learns various robotic tasks automatically and en masse through generative simulation. The team is using existing foundation models, such as OpenAI’s GPT-4, to “automatically generate diversified tasks, scenes, and training supervisions, thereby scaling up robotic skill learning with minimal human supervision.”
