Imagine a world where you can simply speak an object into existence. Researchers at MIT have made this a reality with their groundbreaking speech-to-reality system, which combines generative AI and robotics to create physical objects on demand. This innovative technology allows users to request items like furniture or decorative pieces, and within minutes, a robotic arm assembles them based on voice commands. The process begins with speech recognition that interprets the user’s request, followed by 3D generative AI that crafts a digital representation of the object.
