What is physical artificial intelligence and why is it important?
Physical artificial intelligence (PAI) refers to AI systems that can perceive, understand, reason about, and interact with the physical world in real time through sensors and actuators. Unlike digital AI (DAI), which operates in virtual domains, PAI powers tangible actions in dynamic, real-world environments. PAI is used in closed-loop systems where the AI model not […]
