Welcome back to Cozy AI Kitchen, where we explore the latest in AI through fun, hands-on demos.
In this episode, we’re joined by robotics expert Griffin Norris from General Robotics, who shows how AI agents and Microsoft Copilot can dramatically simplify programming and controlling robots.
Instead of writing complex code from scratch, you’ll see how natural language, MCP servers, and AI models make it possible to:
- Generate robot control scripts instantly
- Connect robots to cloud-based AI models
- Use vision AI for real-world understanding
- Build reusable “skills” for robotic systems
- Control robots interactively with feedback loops
From making a quadruped robot stand and walk to identifying objects like a toaster using vision models, this episode highlights how fast robotics development is evolving in the AI era.
If you’ve ever been curious about robotics but didn’t know where to start, this is the perfect introduction.
