Like even a Roomba, because it's moving around on its own, I think kids and animals view it as an agent.
You mean physical robots?
Yeah, we're way behind where people think we are.
What's impressive to me, so let's see.
Oh, one thing that came out recently was Amazon has this new warehouse robot, and it's the first autonomous warehouse robot that is safe for people to be around.
And so, like, it's kind of... Most people, I think, envision that our warehouses are already fully automated and that there's just, like, robots doing things.
It's actually still really difficult to...
have robots and people in the same space because it's dangerous for the most part.
Robots, you know, because especially robots that have to be strong enough to move something heavy, for example, they can really hurt somebody.
And so until now, a lot of the warehouse robots had to just move along like preexisting lines, which really restricts what you can do.
And so having, I think,
So that's one of the big challenges and one of the big, like, exciting things that's happening is that we're starting to see more cobotics in industrial spaces like that where people and robots can work side by side and not get harmed.
I don't think it's that simple.
I think that there's a ton of disruption that's happening and will continue to happen.
You know, I think speaking specifically of the Amazon warehouses, that might be an area where it would be good for robots to take some of the jobs that are
you know, where people are put in a position where it's unsafe and they're treated horribly.
And, you know, probably it would be better if a robot did that.
And Amazon is clearly trying to automate that job away.
So, uh, I think there's going to be a lot of disruption.
I do think that robots and humans have very different skillsets.
