Curious AI, on the other hand, is designed to simulate the way humans explore, hypothesize, and learn from limited sensory input.We cover:- Why large language models (LLMs) aren’t enough for real-world intelligence- The importance of embodiment and multimodal sensing for AI systems- How Curious AI actively acquires information instead of waiting to be prompted- Applications in industrial domains like refineries, power plants, and predictive maintenance- The future of AI and robotics—human-like avatars vs. task-optimized systems- Why human creativity and judgment will always remain essentialSam envisions a future where AI isn’t just reactive—it’s proactive, curious, and capable of helping us manage complex, dynamic systems more effectively.If you’re interested in the cutting edge of AI, robotics, and the future of human-machine collaboration, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.</p>
