I think that will come in the next couple of years.

And then also on the hardware side, the key is I think eventually we will have millions of robots helping society

and increasing productivity.

But the key there is when you talk to hardware experts is at what point do you have the right level of hardware to go for the scaling option?

Because effectively, when you start building factories around trying to make tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of particular robot type,

it's harder for you to update, quickly iterate the robot design.

So it's one of those kind of questions where if you call it too early, then the next generation of robot might be invented in six months time that's just more reliable and better and more dexterous.

But of course, I think maybe that's where we are, but I think except that 10 years happens in one year, probably.

1984 might be one of those years.

Yeah, I mean, AI to accelerate scientific discovery and help with things like human health is the reason I spent my whole career on AI.

And I think it's the most important thing we can do with AI.

And I feel like if we build AGI in the right way, it will be the ultimate tool for science.

And I think we've been showing at DeepMind a lot of the way of that, obviously AlphaFold most famously, but actually we've applied our AI systems to many branches of science, whether it's material design, helping with controlling plasma and fusion reactors, predicting the weather, solving, you know, mass Olympiad math problems.

And the same types of systems with some extra fine tuning can basically solve a lot of these complex problems.

So I think we're just scratching the surface of what AI will be able to do.

And there are some things that are missing.

So AI today, I would say, doesn't have true creativity in the sense that it can't come up with a new conjecture yet or a new hypothesis.

It can maybe prove something that you give it.

But it's not able to come up with a sort of new idea or new theory itself.

So I think that would be one of the tests actually for AGI.
