ElliQ 3 brings large language models to an eldercare companion

Intuition Robotics unveiled a lighter, more powerful ElliQ that blends scripted dialogue with generative AI.

Intuition Robotics launched ElliQ 3, the newest version of its tabletop companion robot for older adults. The update uses large language models to widen the range of topics it can discuss, remembers details users share for later follow-up, and adds creative activities such as painting and poetry. Real-time guardrails are meant to limit hallucinations and unsuitable replies, and the hardware is smaller and lighter with more computing power. It is one of the first commercial social robots for eldercare to fold generative AI into an established product.
