Task

Large language models such as GPT3 can be used for different applications in human-computer interaction, and we want to explore their use in embodied interaction. The task in the competition will be to integrate ChatGPT gpt-3.5-turbo model into QTrobot by LuxAI to build a model for embodiment based on the output of the large language model. The embodiment model should employ and synchronize voice, facial expressions and gestures of the robot to produce emotional and multimodal (voice-based and embodied) dialogues. The steps can be for example:

1- A user sends a textual input to ChatGPT using a web interface. 2- Response from ChatGPT arrives and is analyzed by your model. 3- QTrobot performs what your model suggests: how to move arms, how to speak, how to show emotions.
