🧠Researchers demonstrate that bidirectional tutoring—where robots and tutors dynamically adapt to each other—produces more consistent and generalizable motor learning compared to traditional unidirectional instruction. Using a free-energy-principle neural network with generative replay, experiments with a humanoid robot showed bidirectional interaction fostered stable behavioral patterns and reduced dependency on tutor guidance over time.
