Robot systems, methods, control modules, and computer program products that leverage large language models

Abstract

Robot control systems, methods, control modules, and computer program products that leverage one or more large language model(s) (LLMs) in order to achieve at least some degree of autonomy are described. Robot control parameters, environment details, and/or instruction sets may advantageously be specified in natural language (NL) and communicated with the LLM via an NL prompt or query. An NL response from the LLM may then be converted into a task plan. A task plan that successfully completes a first instance of a work objective may be parameterized and re-used to complete a second instance of the work objective. Parameterization of a task plan may include replacing one or more nouns/objects in the NL task plan with variables, while optionally preserving one or more verbs/actions in the NL task plan.
