Physical Intelligence and Cognitive Biases Toward AI
Abstract: When will robots be able to clean my house, dishes, and take care of laundry? While we source labor primarily from automated machines in factories, the penetration of physical robots in our daily lives has been slow. What are the challenges in realizing these intelligent machines capable of human level skill? Isn’t AI advanced […]

Abstract: Generating an interactive, enlivened, and physical world enables a wide range of applications in entertainment, embodied AI, education, and creative designs. Recent image/video models have shown promise in producing realistic visuals, yet they operate purely at the pixel level and lack underlying physical grounding, leading to failures in physical fidelity and user interactivity.
