It was used to like plan and pilot the Mars rover.
And we've looked at like other robotics applications.
We're not the only company that's doing it.
You know, there are like different companies that are that are this is a general thing, not just something that we're doing.
But we have generally found that while the complexity is higher, piloting a robot is it's not different in kind than playing a video game.
It's different in complexity.
And we're starting to get to the point where we have that complexity.
Now, what is hard is the physical form of the robot handling the higher-stakes safety issues that happen with robots.
Like, you know, you don't want robots literally crushing people, right?
That's the, like, oldest... We're against that, yes.
Oldest sci-fi trope in the book is, like, the robot crushes you.
Or you don't want the robot nanny dropping the baby, breaking the dishes.
You know, there's a number of...
practical issues that will slow, you know, just like, you know, what you described in, you know, in the law and in human custom, that there are these kind of safety issues that will slow things down.
But I don't believe at all that there is some kind of fundamental difference between the kind of cognitive labor that AI models do and piloting things in the physical world.
I think those are both information problems, and I think they end up being very similar.
One can be more complex in some ways, but I don't think that will protect us here.
It will be on a longer time scale than the kind of genius level intelligence of the AI models because of these practical issues, but it is only practical issues.
I don't believe it is fundamental issues.
I think one way to say it is that the brain of the robot will be made in the next couple years or the next few years.
