The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

And I think robotics and AI today are going to be they they are and will continue to be genuinely disruptive.

The Neuron: AI Explained

That disruptive is not the same as, you know, catastrophic or world change.

The Neuron: AI Explained

changing.

And also none of these things is going to change at the rate that I think most people are concerned about.

The Neuron: AI Explained

So I my expectation is that this technology will like pretty much every technology that came before it, it'll cause some some disruption.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

It may actually cause some and it will likely cause some pain for some individuals.

The Neuron: AI Explained

There will there will be people who will perhaps have a bad time because of the the technology

Ideally, we have a way for those people to be able to adapt, upskill, and so on.

The Neuron: AI Explained

But in the long run, I look at just greater productivity for society.

The Neuron: AI Explained

And that's been the story so far of technology development.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

I think there's a little bit of hubris in imagining that this is the one time that it will be different versus all the other technologies.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

Because we're very proud of this technology or because we think that we're lucky to live in this time, this will be the one time where we've developed something that

the impact is just so qualitatively different from everything that came before.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

I don't know.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

I think it's much more likely that we as a society find interesting and creative ways to incorporate, to adopt, to adapt to it.

The Neuron: AI Explained

And the future is going to be, it's going to look different from how it is now, but I don't, that doesn't keep me up at night.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

That's fair.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

I think it depends what, you know, so first of all, I agree that there are the benefits that you laid out.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

I think that does totally make sense.

The Neuron: AI Explained
Google's Secret Robotics Play That Nobody's Talking About

I think that there, I do hope that people continue and even more people study robotics, whether they're coming at it like in early or later.
