The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $600,000 Project Grant under the Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program to The Regents of the University of California, doing business as the University of California, Berkeley. This 3-year award aims to integrate semantic knowledge from large language models, such as ChatGPT, into automated decision-making and control systems to leverage their predictive capabilities while maintaining reliability and robustness. The technical approach involves developing probabilistic inference frameworks that combine the ungrounded semantic knowledge from language models with physically grounded predictions from learned dynamics models. This research has significant implications for enhancing automated decision-making in applications like robotic systems, intelligent assistants, and decision support tools that must interact with complex real-world environments. No sub-awards are planned under this grant.
