The Robot Revolution: Nvidia's GROOT, Neuralink Breakthroughs & Our Cyborg Future
Download MP3Summary
Dalton discusses two groundbreaking projects in this episode: NVIDIA's Project Groot and Neuralink's human trials. Project Groot is part of NVIDIA's Gear project roadmap and aims to create a foundational model using Legos as an analogy. It combines Omniverse, Isaac Lab, and LLMs to enable robots to learn and perform tasks. Neuralink, on the other hand, focuses on connecting the brain to computers and robots. Dalton shares the inspiring story of Nolan Arbosh, who regained independence through Neuralink's chip implant. He also highlights the ethical concerns and the potential impact of AI and technology on society.
