Biography
Dr. Bo Dai received his B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Physics from Peking University. He later transitioned to artificial intelligence as a postdoctoral researcher at the School of Intelligence Science and Technology, Peking University, advised by Prof. Song-Chun Zhu.
His research bridges cognitive science and artificial intelligence, focusing on two main directions: (1) building machines that can learn abstract representations, causal relations, and physical commonsense directly from physical environments through the lens of intuitive physics, and (2) evaluating multimodal large language model-based embodied agents in high-dimensional semantic action spaces by constructing comprehensive test scenarios.
Dr. Dai is currently a research scientist at the Institute for Artificial Intelligence, Peking University (Beijing Institute for General Artificial Intelligence, BIGAI), where he leads the embodied general AI testing initiatives at the General Agent Center.
