China and Japan are working together to produce a robot called Torobo-kun capable of passing the University of Tokyo’s entrance exam, reports the Nikkei.
Professor Noriko Arai
iFlytek, a Chinese artificial intelligence company, is to work with Japan’s National Institute of Informatics (NII) on the project for which China has a budget of $24.6 million – considerably more than the NII’s budget.
The project to create Torobo-kun started four years ago and, although it is still unable to pass the University of Tokyo’s entrance exam it is reckoned, by Japan’s National Centre for University Entrance Examinations, to have an 80% chance of passing the entrance exams of 80% of universities.
iFlytek approached NII Professor Noriko Arai in May asking if it could join the project. iFlytek heads the Chinese effort which also includes leading Chinese universities.
“China has been closely watching the NII’s project to develop an AI robot, nicknamed “Torobo-kun,” which is capable of passing Todai’s entrance exam,” says Professor Arai who visited China in July to lecture about the project.
