Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers have introduced “Diffusion Forcing,” a new sequence model training technique that blends the strengths of next-token prediction models like ChatGPT and full-sequence diffusion models. This innovation enables AI systems to generate stable and flexible sequences, improving applications in robotics, video generation, and decision-making. For example, Diffusion Forcing helped a robotic arm complete tasks despite visual distractions and produced high-resolution videos in complex environments like “Minecraft.” By adding noise to tokens and gradually "unmasking" them, this technique shows promise in motion planning, video generation, and long-horizon tasks. The research could pave the way for robots that learn from their surroundings and complete tasks without prior human demonstration. Progress like this is bringing us closer to AI systems that imagine and act in the real world. https://lnkd.in/eQVszFbH #AI #Robotics #IP #VC #Patents #DeepTech

On AI, robots, fuzzy heuristics, and their implications for management, manufacturing, and decision-making under uncertainty. Despite being completed in the 1990s, I would like to present some thoughts on my master's dissertation, situated in Artificial Intelligence and Control Theory, which introduced a novel methodology for designing and analyzing fuzzy logic control systems applied to robotic manipulators—having an essential role for the manufacturing industry—with implications to interdisciplinary areas of management and entrepreneurship. This unique approach, which underlines the importance of Natural Language Heuristics in addressing uncertain and complex decision problems, has the potential to significantly advance not only the field of Heuristics in management and entrepreneurship but also the subject of Explainable AI. During my master’s studies, I presented a paper at the 1995 International Fuzzy Systems Association World Congress. I then had the great opportunity to meet Professor Lotfi Zadeh, the father of fuzzy sets and systems, and attend his brilliant speeches and lectures. In the following video, I will explain the contributions of my Ph.D. on Cognitive Machines in Organizations (Nobre, 2005: https://lnkd.in/d23i8dvn), one of the first thesis to introduce Artificial Intelligence in management and organization research.
