The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

One is we're going to see this second wave, it's going to be delayed, of disruption to work, to jobs that are physical and dexterous, which we haven't seen anything like that yet.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

And they're in high demand at the moment, but that time is somewhat limited.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

And then the other way to think about this is that

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

Once we have these humanoids in hospitals and nursing homes and all the workplaces and our homes, that's an infinite source of new learning for AI.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

And so each of those humanoids will be learning and that'll go back to a central hub and they'll all get smarter like that.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

So that's this new frontier of learning, and that's why these companies are going to lease and sell these humanoids at way below cost because it's such a big opportunity to learn from us.

The Imperfects

And develop their tech.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

Yeah.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

So they've kind of used all the cheap or free data they can get their hands on or steal for training these models, and then the humanoid interaction is the next level.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

Now, think about what we're already seeing with AI companions and then think what, you know, you put an AI companion into a humanoid.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

Some of these humanoids, the one in particular from Xpeng, the EV car company, they've made these quite

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

gender specific, we'll say, kind of like quite curvy humanoids.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

And you can imagine one of these AI companions being put into this physical form.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

And then we're in a very different place where we see, you know, I imagine young people will be choosing to have relationships with these humanoids because they can shape them however they want.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

They can have full comfort, no awkwardness.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

It's going to be easy.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

It's going to be, you know,

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

Short term, all upside.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

But long term, I don't know if that's the case.

The Imperfects
Joel Pearson - I Think, Therefore AI

How?
