Play will make robots better
Can an AI robot become better at living among humans by learning new things through play? Follow Wallenberg Scholar Amy Loutfi to the lab at Örebro University. There, she teaches robots to become better at learning from their interactions with the environment by using play and curiosity. The idea is that robots can learn completely new things by being curious. Just like a child who learns things both by imitating – but also by playing. For those who try out of curiosity can learn something new and perhaps also something unexpected.
