Skild AI is not building robots — the startup is building the AI that could make every robot instantly smarter.

How far, and for how long, a robot can navigate depends on how much power it consumes over time. Robot navigation systems are especially energy hungry.

Skild AI unveiled its latest look at a generalized brain for robotics. The company aims to provide a general-purpose brain, called the Skild Brain, that is capable of controlling diverse robots across ...

The mysterious Pittsburgh startup has reportedly raised more than $800 million, and has kept its plans for growth quiet despite high-profile investors.

Unlike other robotic applications, where software is purpose-built for a specific robot, Skild AI is taking the groundbreaking approach of developing what it calls the Skild Brain, an AI-driven ...

Elon Musk recently revealed that Neuralink, his brain-computer interface company, was forced to develop and rely on robots for electrode implantation surgeries because no human surgeon could meet ...

With their bright blue bases, yellow gears, and exposed circuit tops, the 3D-printed robots look like a child’s toys. Yet as a roughly two-dozen-member collective, they can flow around obstacles ...

Scientists in China have developed a ‘brain-on-chip’ system that combines lab-grown human brain matter with a neural interface chip to power a so-called ‘organoid’ robot.
