Microsoft's Magma AI Can Manipulate and Control Robots

Microsoft just introduced Magma, a new artificial intelligence model designed to help robots see, understand and act more intelligently. Unlike traditional AI models, Magma processes different types of data all at once -- an effort Microsoft is calling a big leap toward "agentic AI," or systems that can plan and execute tasks on a user's behalf. The model, which uses a combination of vision and language processing, is trained on videos, images, robotics data and interface interactions so as to

Microsoft’s new AI agent can control software and robots

On Wednesday, Microsoft Research introduced Magma, an integrated AI foundation model that combines visual and language processing to control software interfaces and robotic systems. If the results hold up outside of Microsoft's internal testing, it could mark a meaningful step forward for an all-purpose multimodal AI that can operate interactively in both real and digital spaces. Microsoft claims that Magma is the first AI model that not only processes multimodal data (like text, images, and vi
