上海交大卢策吾：具身智能与他的首个刮胡子机器人 | 智者访谈

This article features a video interview with Professor Lu Cewu from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, discussing embodied artificial intelligence. Professor Lu made headlines as "the first person in the world to have their beard shaved by a robot." The demonstration showed a robotic arm equipped with force feedback sensors performing the delicate task while responding to his head movements. The project illustrates embodied AI's fundamental requirement: achieving both generalization and robustness. A system must handle "the precise adjustment of pressure and cutting force" simultaneously — visual guidance alone cannot accomplish this task safely. The "Intelligent Conversation" segment (智者访谈) covers: embodied intelligence principles and characteristics, standards for "body" and "intelligence", achieving 99.X% reliability alongside general capability, various technical approaches in the field, whether systems like Sora understand physical principles, large model architecture for embodied AI, scaling laws in this domain, data collection methodologies, evaluation metrics and costs, and talent requirements in the field. He holds multiple honors including a Scientific Exploration Award for embodied AI research, MIT TR35 recognition, and numerous publications in prestigious journals. He is also co-founder and chief scientist of Qiongche Intelligence (穹彻智能).<br/>---END---
