An impressive technological breakthrough has emerged from South Korea: Pibot, a robot equipped with the artificial intelligence of the popular language model ChatGPT.
Developed by the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), this robot not only pilots aircraft, but also demonstrates dexterity comparable or even superior to that of a human pilot.

The system uses machine learning language models, similar to the company's chatbot. OpenAI, to enable Pibot to operate the flight controls similar to a human.
With a compact structure of just over one and a half meters in height, the Pibot is equipped with upper limbs containing arms and fingers articulated with high precision.
This skill allows him to handle the cabin controls in a deft way, even in situations of intense vibration of the aircraft, as in cases of turbulence.
Pibot also has several cameras, both internal and external, to monitor and manage the systems. External cameras assess the status of the aircraft, while internal cameras help Pibot interact with the control panel.
AI built into the robot allows it to understand and memorize emergency procedure manuals written for human pilots, allowing it to act quickly in critical situations.
The research team, which has been working on Pibot development since 2016, highlights recent advances in ChatGPT and other language models as essential to the project.
The vision for the future includes improving the robot so that it can operate flawless flights, calculating safe routes in real time based on the conditions of the aircraft during flight.
Furthermore, Pibot is expected to be able to react to emergency situations with speed and precision beyond human capabilities.
The research team is also working on creating a custom language model for Pibot, allowing it to query without the need for Internet access.
This resource will be stored in a small onboard computer, providing unique information about aircraft piloting.
In addition to its piloting abilities, Pibot has the potential to serve as a helper in risky situations where human intervention could be dangerous.
It can communicate via voice synthesizers, enabling it to assist air traffic controllers or cabin crew, even from a distance.
Although the project is still in the development phase, the prediction is that Pibot will be finalized by 2026, marking a major step towards the future of intelligent automation in the technology industry. aviation.
