Using ChatGPT, this Robot Dog Can Now Communicate

Share

It’s amazing to see engineers breaking down barriers and coming up with new ways to improve the operation of these gadgets, which are becoming more and more common in our society.

By merging ChatGPT with Boston Dynamics’ robot dog, Spot, for improved communication and much more, Santiago has successfully done just that.

As you are surely already aware, OpenAI’s ChatGPT is a powerful AI model that can produce intelligent text in response to user input. With the help of ChatGPT, Santiago has integrated Google’s text-to-speech technology, enabling users to ask Spot questions via voice and receive a real-time response. As a result, a robot dog is created that can understand queries, analyse papers, and come up with answers.

Spot responds to questions about its battery level, mission specifics, and more in Santiago’s demo video. Spot is even capable of indicating yes or no by nodding and shaking its head.

Every day, robot dogs carry out automatic activities using lengthy and sophisticated configuration files that can only be understood by a professional. The robot dog collects a lot of data after each operation, but there is no easy way to access that data at any given time. The answer is ChatGPT, which makes it easier to understand configuration files and query data.

Some people may be concerned about the integration of AI into robots because the idea of robots using an AI model to communicate with people may conjure up images of a dystopian future in which robots rebel against their creators.

However, the current goal is to use robot dogs to increase task efficiency.
