And it became really clear how little we know about ourselves and about how nature works and just how much there is to learn from exploring other parts of the universe.
So like on a rational level, that's how I convince myself that that's why I'm excited.
In reality, it's just fucking exciting.
I mean, just like the idea that we can do this difficult thing and that humans come together to build things that can explore space.
I mean, there's just something inherently thrilling about that.
And I'm reluctant about it because I feel like there are so many other challenges and problems that...
I think are more important to solve, but I also think we should be doing all of it at once.
And so to that extent, I'm like all for research on humanoid robots, development of humanoid robots.
I think that there's a lot to explore and learn and it doesn't necessarily take away from other areas of science.
At least it shouldn't.
I think unfortunately a lot of the attention goes towards that and it does
take resources and attention away from other areas of robotics that we should be focused on, but I don't think we shouldn't do it.
It's a distraction, and it's one that I find particularly boring.
It's interesting from a research perspective, but from like what types of robots can we create to put in our world?
Like why would we just create a humanoid robot?
I don't get it.
Oh, arms can be useful, but like why not have three arms?
Like why does it have to look like a person?
Yeah.
But does your companion have to have like two arms and look like you?
