Robotics researchers are no strangers to artificial intelligence—it has for years helped robots detect objects in their path, for example. But a few years ago, roboticists began marveling at the progress being made in large language models. Makers of those models could feed them massive amounts of text—books, poems, manuals—and then fine-tune them to...
