"We acquired Assured Robot Intelligence, a company at the frontier of robotic intelligence designed to enable robots to understand, predict, and adapt to human behaviors in complex and dynamic environments."
"This team, led by Lerrel Pinto and Xiaolong Wang, will bring a deep expertise in how we can design our models and frontier capabilities for robot control and self-learning to whole-body humanoid control."
"Even if Meta never releases a consumer humanoid product, many AI experts these days believe that the path to artificial general intelligence (AGI) will require training AI models in the physical world."
Meta has acquired Assured Robot Intelligence, a startup focused on robotic intelligence that enables robots to understand and adapt to human behaviors. The ARI team will join Meta's Superintelligence Labs. ARI was developing foundation models for humanoid robots to perform physical tasks. Co-founders Xiaolong Wang and Lerrel Pinto bring significant expertise in robot control and self-learning. Meta has been pursuing humanoid robotics for years, with ambitions to create consumer products. Experts believe training AI in the physical world is essential for achieving artificial general intelligence.
