New Meta Reality Labs Division To Develop AI-Driven Humanoid Robots
After splitting Reality Labs into “Wearables” and “Metaverse” divisions this past summer, Meta is further restructuring its virtual reality/augmented reality (VR/AR) hardware department by establishing a new unit focused on developing artificial intelligence (AI)-powered humanoid robots designed to assist with physical household tasks, according to an internal company memo.
In the memo, Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth says that the robotics product group will focus on research and development around “consumer humanoid robots” with a goal of “maximizing” the platform capabilities of Llama, the company’s family of automated open-source large language models.
