Researchers from the Technical University of Delft (TU Delft) in the Netherlands and the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland have joined forces with OpenAI’s ChatGPT to embark on a groundbreaking project that showcases the transformative potential of AI.

The aim of this collaboration is to design a robot, delving into the possibilities and risks associated with integrating AI into the design process, Unite reported.

ChatGPT, an advanced language model developed by OpenAI, has proven its proficiency in generating human-like text across various domains, including poems, essays, and even complete books.

The researchers at TU Delft and EPFL were curious to explore whether this AI’s capabilities could extend beyond language and into the realm of robotics.

The outcome of their collaboration is a remarkable tomato-harvesting robot, highlighting the success of combining human expertise with AI.

Nevertheless, this innovative design process has also brought about a shift in the roles of human engineers, who now focus more on technical aspects.

In light of this, the research team further investigated the different levels of cooperation that can be achieved between humans and Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT.
