In this episode, we explore a cool new way scientists are teaching robots to learn and make decisions, just like humans! We talk about how robots can now use something called "Cognitive Belief-Driven Q-Learning" (CBDQ)—it’s like how you use your brain to guess what might happen next based on what you’ve learned before. We’ll explain how this helps robots avoid making mistakes and get better at things like driving cars or playing games. Tune in to find out how these smart robots are getting even smarter, all by thinking a bit more like you!
