Beyond LLMs - The Case for Organic, Brain-Inspired Al with Bruno Maisonnier.Welcome back to Redefining AI, the award winning tech podcast powered by Squirro, the Enterprise Generative AI Platform. In this pisode, Lauren Hawker Zafer is joined by Bruno Maisonnier - a Pioneer in Humanoid Robotics and Visionary in Artificial Intelligence.Bruno Maisonnier is a prominent French entrepreneur and engineer recognized for his groundbreaking contributions to the field of humanoid robotics and his ongoing work in developing a new generation of artificial intelligence. He is the founder of Aldebaran Robotics, the company behind the internationally acclaimed NAO and Pepper robots, and currently leads the charge at AnotherBrain, a company pioneering "Organic AI."An alumnus of the prestigious École Polytechnique, Maisonnier began his career in the banking sector. However, his passion for technology and a belief in the future of personal robotics led him to a significant career change. In 2005, he founded Aldebaran Robotics in Paris, with the ambitious goal of creating humanoid robots that could interact with humans in a natural and intuitive way. Under his leadership, Aldebaran developed the NAO robot, a small, programmable humanoid that quickly became a standard platform for research and education worldwide. This was followed by the creation of Pepper, a larger, more sophisticated robot designed for social interaction and commercial applications. These robots were revolutionary in their ability to perceive and respond to human emotions, marking a significant step forward in the field of social robotics.In 2012, SoftBank Group acquired a majority stake in Aldebaran Robotics, which was later fully integrated into the Japanese conglomerate. Maisonnier eventually departed from the company he founded and, in 2017, embarked on a new venture with the establishment of AnotherBrain.With AnotherBrain, Maisonnier is focusing on what he terms "Organic AI," a novel approach to artificial intelligence inspired by the workings of the human brain. This new generation of AI aims to be more efficient, require less data, and provide explainable results, moving beyond the limitations of current deep learning models.Tune into the spotlight from the upcoming episode nine with Bruno!

Aldebaran Robotics, la société française qui a créé les célèbres robots Nao et Pepper, a été placée en liquidation judiciaire.Voici trois points pour comprendre cette annonce tonitruante.Une liquidation inévitablePremier point donc, cette liquidation semble bien inévitable.Le tribunal de commerce de Paris a prononcé en début de semaine la fin d'Aldebaran.Fondée en 2005, la société a longtemps été considérée comme une pépite de la French Tech.Son petit robot Nao, apparu en 2006, avait fait le tour du monde et même salué Emmanuel Macron ou la reine d'Angleterre !Mais faute d'un modèle économique pérenne et de financements suffisants, la société a été placée en redressement judiciaire en février. Deux offres de reprise ont été examinées, mais aucune n'a offert de garanties sur l'emploi.Les projets de reprise jugés insuffisantsLà aussi c'est très surprenant, mais les projets de reprise de l'activité ont été jugés insuffisants par le tribunal.Un entrepreneur canadien et un homme d'affaires suisse avaient manifesté leur intérêt. Le premier a jeté l'éponge, et le second, bien qu'appuyé par des fonds émiratis, n'a pas su convaincre. Le tribunal a jugé son projet insuffisant, d'autant plus qu'il ne prévoyait pas de reprendre les 106 salariés restants en France.Conséquence : tous les employés vont être licenciés et les actifs de l'entreprise mis aux enchères.Comment comprendre cette débandade ?Alors comment comprendre cette débandade et alors que jamais la robotique n'a été aussi à la mode ?Aldebaran, rachetée en 2014 par le géant japonais SoftBank, puis revendue en 2022 à United Robotics Group, n'a pas su retrouver son éclat.En cause, une succession d'échecs, notamment le robot Plato destiné à la logistique. À l'été 2024, les équipes françaises ont accusé leur actionnaire URG de les avoir « lâchées », faute de nouveaux financements.Cette liquidation, à quelques jours du salon VivaTech, assombrit un peu plus l'horizon d'une French Tech déjà sous pression.Le ZD Tech est sur toutes les plateformes de podcast !

This one's different from the rest - a topic I came to understand once I had seen the episode twice - you truly discover how robotics is more than just tech, its human led, its a partner in your day-to-day and Jérôme Monceaux makes it inspiring by launching robots that are inspired by anime design and seamlessly support human existence. Meet the founder of Enchanted Tools all the way from France. Enchanted Tools was founded in 2022 by Jérôme Monceaux, co-founder of Aldebaran Robotics (where he previously co-created the Pepper and Nao robots). Recently, the company unveiled its cutting-edge Mirokaï robots, showcasing a remarkable fusion of technology and creativity. human-led In an era where robots serve a singular purpose – to improve our world – Enchanted Tools is bidding farewell to intimidating machines and welcoming us into an era defined by enchanting robots. By seamlessly blending elements of anime, artificial intelligence, and mechatronics, Enchanted Tools is on a mission to make professionals' lives easier and users' experiences happier, reshaping the landscape of robotics in the process.

Speaker: Bruno Maisonnier, CEO of Aldebaran Robotics
www.aldebaran.com/en Graduated from “Polytechnique and Telecom Paris”, his career was built upon two main sectors: informatics and banking. He worked for ten years in IT consulting and in banks, where he carried out multi-partners projects, then successfully became the CEO of financial enterprises in several countries. Fascinated by robotics, he has been closely following this market and its evolutions for 25 years. In 2005 he decided to leave the banking sector to take part into an uncommon adventure: the creation of a humanoid robot. That was the beginning of Aldebaran Robotics, a start up that brought together a few engineers and PhDs. In 8 years, Bruno Maisonnier’s incredible enterprise became a solid society, in which more than 300 people are currently employed. His robot, NAO, is commercialised all over the world, in the most prestigious universities as a research platform (Carnegie Mellon, Berlin University, Stanford, Tokyo University, Harvard…). In the future, Aldebaran Robotics’ ambition would be to develop humanoid robots at the service of a broader audience. Aldebaran Robotics’ vision: Robots for better living
