AI Designs Shuffling Insta-Robot in 26 Seconds, Showing Potential for Rapid Solutions to Global Problems
-
Northwestern professor Sam Kriegman designed an "insta-robot" that was created by AI in just 26 seconds, showing the potential for rapid robot design.
-
The AI algorithm built upon each version of the robot until arriving at a workable design that could shuffle and hop.
-
This compresses millions of years of evolution into seconds, with implications for solving problems like destroying asteroids or developing cancer drugs.
-
AI can create new robot designs beyond human imagination, like the three-legged shuffling bot, opening new possibilities.
-
AI has ideas of its own that could unlock new tools and therapies to problems we currently have no solution for.
