Karol Family Applied Technology Professor Matthias Scheutz has big ideas about small AI models. He recently spoke with WBUR about his work with robots that use smaller AI models.

Robots powered with these small AI models can make decisions quickly. And because the chips are installed in the robots, there's no need to send signals to and from data centers for processing. That means the robots can run AI without an internet connection and are more energy efficient than robots that run on larger models.

When people picture a robot, they tend to visualize a boxy, metal contraption—like something from the Disney movie “WALL-E.” But in reality, this type of robot gets damaged easily.

Associate Professor and Jon Levy Faculty Fellow Markus Nemitz's lab works to create soft robots that are more human-like to allow them to withstand the many physical impacts that so often present themselves in the real world. Nemitz is working to automate how soft robots are designed, built, and tested, which could save significant time and material—and even, one day, lives.
