A team of engineers from the world of artificial intelligence have recently enabled a Boston Dynamics robot dog with OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Text-to-Speech voice, making it the real-life Skynet-like robot. In a Twitter post, machine learning engineer Santiago Valdarrama displayed a video, demoing how the robo-dog can communicate with humans through voice interactions much faster than manual control panels and assessments. This robot performs automated tasks that can consist of many miles long hard-to-understand configuration files every day, which only technical professionals or experts can handle. When paired with the ChatGPT and Google’s Text-to-Speech voice, one can ask the robot simple questions regarding the mission results and configuration files in real-time, which ChatGPT is responsible for interpreting and providing an answer.
With the ChatGPT brain, anyone can now talk to the robot. In the near future, joining ChatGPT to robots might seem modest but AI technology brings dark risks, building intelligent robots or a Skynet-like scenario.
OpenAI is an artificial intelligence research laboratory focused on producing machine learning technology and techniques known as deep learning. It is a research laboratory open to all industries, sectors, and organizations. It’s founder, one of the leading technology giants in the world Elon Musk, believes that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is both a risk and a great asset. Their mission is to build safe Artificial General Intelligence systems that increase their decision-making capabilities and overcome their ethical and economic challenges.
Santiago Valdarrama, a renowned Machine Learning Engineer is at the heart of the robotic invention which could revolutionize the world of AI. After numerous years of research, Valdarrama has created the robo-dog, a robot which could be the groundwork for the Skynet-like robot. He has brought together the two tech giants OpenAI and Google’s Text-to-Speech capabilities and enabled the robot to interact with humans. Despite the dark side of using AI, Valdarrama believes in the potential of machine learning to improve our lives and make robots more intelligent.
