A simulated kitchen.
That?s where something like Habitat comes in. Facebook recently announced the new open source platform, which allows computer scientists to train artificial intelligence agents in virtual rooms, no bumbling around a couch or bumping into a wall required. Habitat is able to host simulated environments where AI can learn navigational skills at a rapid pace. It comes with a host of pre-made photorealistic environments called Replicas that simulate the layout and details of common rooms like kitchens, conference rooms, and bedrooms.
A simulated living room.
These rooms are effectively training ground for AI that needs to quickly learn the difference between, say, a dresser and a doorway and how to most efficiently navigate to a certain location. According to TechCrunch, bots can squeeze in weeks, months, and years of training time into a few i...
