Omer had the fabulous idea of integrating ChatGPT with Petoi Bittle which made the programmable robot more conversational and intelligent, and most importantly more capable of understanding human instructions and commands. Here is a video of Petoi Bittle with ChatGPT enabled, speaking with, understanding and interacting with Omer in real time!
As you can see in the video above, with ChatGPT, Omer was able to transform Bittle into a full-fledged AI robot dog. Bittle communicates with Omer, understands the conversation and follows instructions, dances with Michael Jackson's move, performs tricks, handstands, waves, stretches, jumps, crawls, flips, pretends to be a table and so much more!
What strikes us as absolutely amazing is the amount of personality and flair Bittle possessed after the integration.
Omer achieved this customization by training ChatGPT to understand what commands Bittle supports.
Just the way Bittle engages in conversation, understands things, and says woof sparks so much more fun into the intelligent robot! You can learn more about all the technical details and his open source codes from Omer's forum post ChatGPT Integration with Petoi.
After experimenting powering robot dog Bittle with AI and ChatGPT, Omer showcased Bittle with members of the Limitless Makers program: a summer training camp attended by 50 brightest students from Turkey, selected from the top 1%. As expected, the students were amazed to see Bittle in action. The students 'curiosity peaked as they marveled at Bittles intelligence and attention to detail. Here is the full video from the event:

Here's the best part, Omer and Bittle communicated in Turkish which was so much easier for the students to understand! This opens up floodgates of opportunity as this robot project is not limited to English only! (Lucky for us the video also has English subtitles)
When we spoke with Omer, we were especially pleased to hear his kind words about Bittle robot dog: "at first glance, it looks like a small toy. It is really small and plastic. When we imagine a robot dog, we always think of Boston Dynamics robot dog. But when you start examining Bittle, you realize this. It is an engineering marvel where what you can do is limited by your dreams and abilities.
I have spent time with other robots before such as Lego Mindstorms. I can say this very clearly, making a movement by sending a command to 8 joints and 8 legs is not like turning a wheel. It is really very complicated and you respect those who developed this robot." Omer also added "On the other hand,
If you have little knowledge on the subject or you are young and new to these things, then there is no problem either. While a good developer can manage this robot in Python, C#, Arduino, a child over the age of 10 can do whatever he wants without writing code by using Petoi Coding Blocks. For example, I did a project to voice chat with the robot using ChatGPT API. Finally, I am looking forward to adding new abilities to the robot using AI with Isaac Simulator. My endless thanks to those who developed this robot."

We are also elated to excited to learn that Omer is further experimenting with this robot project. Next, he has plans to get 2 ChatGPT enabled Bittle's to communicate and play with each other! He is particularly excited to see the two AI robot pets converse on the economy and sports! We wish him all the very best in his future endeavors and would like to continue to support him in any way we can!
