The article discusses the AI challenges encountered while developing the Alexa Prize SimBot Challenge, an embodied conversational agent. It highlights how the team used BERT, reinforcement learning, and multimodal machine learning to overcome difficulties such as understanding language variations. The process involved using BERT to convert human instructions into structured commands for the robot to execute, thus facilitating natural interaction. By employing BERT, the robot could effectively decipher intent and perform actions like navigating or object recognition, showcasing advancements in AI capabilities for real-time communication and task execution.
Natural language is messy and can get very complicated. We humans say Go to the fridge but could also say Find the fridge and open it.
To do this, we used BERT (Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers) to convert text instructions into structured commands.
The user speaks or types an instruction, BERT processes the text and extracts intent, translating it into executable actions like navigate_to(fridge) or pick(red_cup).
