Reward Isn't Free: Supervising Robot Learning with Language and Video from the Web

This work was conducted as part of SAIL and CRFM . Deep learning has enabled improvements in the capabilities of robots on a range of problems such as grasping 1 and locomotion 2 in recent years. However, building the quintessential home robot that can perform a range of interactive tasks, from cooking to cleaning, in novel environments has remained elusive. While a number of hardware and software challenges remain, a necessary component is robots that can generalize their prior knowledge to new
