Let's get physical – DeepMind: The Podcast (Season 2, Episode 4)

Do you need a body to have intelligence? And can one exist without the other? Hannah takes listeners behind the scenes of DeepMind’s robotics lab in London where she meets robots that are trying to independently learn new skills, and explores why physical intelligence is a necessary part of intelligence. Along the way, she finds […]
