Welcome back to the Cozy AI Kitchen, where we stir up warm conversations about the coolest tech innovations. In this episode, host John Maeda welcomes Tim Chung, GM of Autonomy and Robotics at Microsoft, for an energizing, hands-on look at how AI is transforming robotics — and what it means for the future of human–robot collaboration.
From action models to physical intelligence, from Teams-connected robots to LED-powered robot dances, this episode brings you right into the next frontier: robots as teammates.
Whether you’re a developer, roboticist, maker, or simply “robotics curious,” this is your perfect deep-dive into how generative AI is opening entirely new possibilities in physical autonomy.
