Robot Chemist: RoboChem, a system that outshines human chemists in chemical synthesis efficiency
A robot outperformed human chemists at synthesizing chemicals. Researchers at University of Amsterdam built RoboChem, an integrated robotic system that learned to design light-activated chemical reactions while achieving optimal yields and throughput.

This Language Model Speaks Robot: PaLM-E, the model that improves robot control with large language model expertise
A pretrained large language model has helped a robot resolve high-level commands into sequences of subtasks. It can do this more precisely with additional training — both on language-vision tasks and robotics tasks.

ChatGPT’s Best Friend: Unitree's robot dog Go2 is smarter than ever.
The latest robot dog is smarter — and less expensive — than ever. Unitree Robotics of Hangzhou, China, unleashed Go2, a quadruped robot that trots alongside its owner, stands on two legs, jumps, talks, takes photos, and retails for less than a high-end MacBook.

Sample-Efficient Training for Robots: Reinforcement learning from human feedback to train robots
Training an agent that controls a robot arm to perform a task — say, opening a door — that involves a sequence of motions (reach, grasp, turn, pull, release) can take from tens of thousands to millions of examples...
