into physical devices that will do things for us and because you build this physical device you can have it do very purpose built kinds of things for you like if you go online there's really amazing videos now and they sell these today of these robotic dogs that can like run and jump and do things that is really incredible it looks like an axe and moves just like a real life dog

AGI is on the minds of everyone in the AI industry. And if you look at all the venture capital dollars pouring in new AI, it's really incredible.

stories about this is Sal Khan from Khan Academy. I heard him give a great speech saying that AI will transform education beyond anything that's been previously imagined.
