Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

I mean, it loops fine.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

Yeah, it loops pretty fine.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

No, I mean, it doesn't have to be perfect.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

It's a GIF.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

It's the internet.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

Things are shitty all the time.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

I mean, I think the biggest struggle of that was that I had this intention for it to be this show and then them not giving back.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

And I was like, well, if they don't want it, then maybe YouTube will have me.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

What was the most embarrassing?

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

Oh, it's just so cringy.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

Yeah.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

I mean, it's thankfully not on the internet, so nobody can find it.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

But it's very much me being in what I called host mode, which is where I'm like...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

Okay, so what we're going to learn today is that we're going to look at this.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

This is something called a servo motor, and it's like the intonation and everything is really different.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

And I'm actually, I mean, thinking back of that, I'm so happy that they didn't get back to me because it's such a different thing to kind of start your career in your living room, running back and forth to the camera and, like, filming something and looking at it.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

And, like, I got to really...

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

find my own voice in a different way.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

And then like a year later, they offered me a show, but then I was so off and running.

Lex Fridman Podcast
#372 โ€“ Simone Giertz: Queen of Sh*tty Robots, Innovative Engineering, and Design

I was like, no, I don't want to do this.
