Do AI models understand the language that they produce? To help answer this question and elucidate the mechanisms of language acquisition more generally, researchers at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) have created a virtual robot with a brain-inspired neural network and tested its performance after giving it the remarkably human trait of curiosity.Do AI models understand the language that they produce?
