By allowing robots to learn and explore in a simulated video game environment, they can acquire the skills needed to navigate, handle objects, and perform tasks in the real world.
By designing reward functions that incentivize the robot to explore and understand the world, it becomes more curious and motivated to learn.
The knowledge gained from training robots in virtual environments can be applied to real-world tasks, such as last mile delivery and self-driving cars.
The need to manually design reward functions for different tasks limits the generality of AI agents.
