How Stanford students train their robot

18 August 2024

Stanford students teach a robot using the "shadow" method. The robot is shown various movements dozens of times, and it remembers them. Here's what it looks like

While famous inventors dream of colonizing Mars, a group of Stanford students decided to start small - teach a robot to tie its shoelaces. And they succeeded. Using the shadow method, reminiscent of how parents teach children, they turned a piece of metal into a universal assistant.

The mechanical guy learned to put on sneakers and tie laces (although he may have had to explain the difference between the right and left shoe), type, wave his fists, play table tennis, and even organize piano concerts. In just 30-40 repetitions, the robot mastered more skills than some students do in an entire semester. All that's left is to teach him how to cook, and you can confidently send him off to look for a job.
