A look at Covariant.AI, which builds warehouse robots trained with reinforcement learning, as few warehouse tasks remain that cannot be automated
and say they're ready for the big time. https://www.technologyreview.com/ ... @techreview : “Every time, we expected that they would fail with the next product, because it became more and more tricky ... But the point was they succeeded, and everything really worked. We've never seen this quality of AI before.” https://www.technologyreview.com/ ... https://twitter.com/... Karen Weise / @kyweise : .@CadeMetz and @satariano on the big AI and robotics breakthrough in warehouse work: picking through a bin of random items https://www.nytimes.com/... Isaac Saul / @ike_saul : A robot arm is successfully sorting boxes in a factory with 99% accuracy. Might not seem like much, but it's a task that has been out of reach of the most advanced artificial intelligence.

Research labs have made incredible advances in combining AI & robotics, but bringing them into the real-world has been a completely different story. I visited @CovariantAI that says it has cracked the nut and is ready to take on warehouse floors by storm. https://www.technologyre…
