Deans' stroke musings: AI-powered humanoid robot can serve you food, stack the dishes

Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

AI-powered humanoid robot can serve you food, stack the dishes — and have a conversation with you

Might be helpful to your living alone after your stroke, assuming it doesn't become like the robot in the movie; 'Robot and Frank'.

I really prefer the socially assistive robot in the movie 'Robot and Frank'.

AI-powered humanoid robot can serve you food, stack the dishes — and have a conversation with you

Figure 01 learned how to make coffee by watching a human do it, and now it can speak to you like a person.

A self-correcting humanoid robot that learned to make a cup of coffee just by watching footage of a human doing it can now answer questions thanks to an integration with OpenAI's technology.

In the new promotional video, a technician asks Figure 01 to perform a range of simple tasks in a minimalist test environment resembling a kitchen. He first asks the robot for something to eat and is handed an apple. Next, he asked Figure 01 to explain why it handed him an apple while it was picking up some trash. The robot answers all the questions in a robotic but friendly voice.

The company said in its video that the conversation is powered by an integration with technology made by OpenAI — the name behind ChatGPT. It's unlikely that Figure 01 is using ChatGPT itself, however, because that AI tool does not normally use pause words like "um," which this robot does.
