Co-evolution of technology and humanity

Our assistive robots help people living with a physical disability to manage their home,

Core AI / AGI

We build AI to be ethical from the ground up

Hey Pixi is a responsible AI that can think and reason like a human, acting with deep emotional intelligence. This matters now more than ever as we enter an era where AI is taking on a larger role in everyday life, and making more decisions on our behalf. Our technology will help people run their homes and move towards their goals.

Epigenesis

We have developed a new approach called ‘epigenesis,’ which refers to the scientific concept of how an organism can change and adapt in interaction with its environment.

We have three key research areas for our Core AI:
1
Emotional
Intelligence

Hey Pixi's intelligent assistants combine a deeper level of understanding with reasoning capabilities to support complex tasks, and to help people make more objective, informed, and responsible decisions.

2
Autonomous
Reasoning

Harnessing a fusion of modern neurosciences and chaos theory approaches, Hey Pixi's innovative state-based interactive AI transcend the shallow world of chatbots, and enables human-like grounded reasoning, interaction, and problem solving.

3
Habitat as a Complex System

The range of applications for Hey Pixi's AI spans the most ambitious tasks involving multi-modal, multi-user interaction, and complex system optimisation, from artificial habitats to our own homes.

Our Trusted Partners

aKin SPACE

We deploy and benchmark our AI into the most difficult environment we can think of: SPACE

We have a multi-year deployment contact with the Australian Space Agency, and are using that to train our AI to take on different roles:

Helper

Helper supports complex tasks with autonomous problem solving. Helper provides both cognitive and physical assistance and is embodied as an autonomous robot.

Inspector

Inspector understands what is happening in the environment, identifies anomalies, creates alerts, and performs AI Analytics. Inspector’s embodiment is a multitude of smaller, sensor-fitted, robots.

Manager

Manager is an ambient AI brain, with an overarching view of the whole environment. It understands people, processes, events and the habitat as a whole system. Manager is embodied in a ‘brain’ represented by an abstract avatar.

Human-AI relationship

The opaqueness of the human mind poses a great challenge to human-machine interaction.

We are working with a synergy of neuroscience, cognitive theories, behavioural science, and multimodal learning to develop AI that understand humans. This spans language, emotion, culture, values, and goal alignment in order to achieve deep and trusted relationships between humans and AI.

Hey Pixi

Assistive robot companions to support people with disabilities

We have signed agreements with a number of large disability organisations to deliver tens of thousands of home AI in the form of avatars and robots with deep emotional intelligence. They do things like organise schedules, support complex tasks, help with healthy living and meal planning, support social connection, and help people achieve their goals.

Aim

Assistive robot to perform tasks related to the activities of daily living, particularly for those with mobility issues and cognitive disabilities.

Purpose

Our robots will give people independence and empower them to complete complex tasks in and around the home.

Motivation

Our assistive robots will enable an enjoyable and healthy lifestyle, both physically and mentally.

State optimisation

Hey Pixi models humans and their environment as gravity wells in an event space

Akin maps resources, events, and relationships that AI can use to optimise state and traverse events more effectively over time. By measuring and optimising according to shared goals, the AI improves its effectiveness and enhances the well-being of humans and manages their environment.
