Last night I had dinner with the CEO of Profound, terrific company that does not SEO but, like,
Other great companies in New York.
Basis is selling to accountants.
You've got Crosby and Harvey selling to lawyers.
New York is actually having a moment in AI, and it's kind of at that app level.

So they're pressing hard, hiring hard, growing hard.
And I think you'll start seeing over the next couple of years, big productivity advantages like HubSpot uses AI across the enterprise and customer support and R&D, massive productivity benefits across a couple of big parts of the enterprise.
Juicebox is one of my favorite founders of Companies on Fire, yes.
Yeah, I think we just think about safety as a really high priority item.
And we define it as being like passively safe.
And what it means is that you can put the robot into any configuration and you can cut power and the robot will still be stable.

Yeah, I think the biggest way we think very differently is actually on how to train these robots, not just the design, but how it obtains its intelligence.
So normally people train their robots through teleoperation, which essentially means that you kind of log into the robot and control how it moves.
But the way we learn is actually very, very different, that we learn from humans directly.
that essentially we designed this device, a glove, that captures how humans do their chores.
And we're able to transfer those data directly into the robot.
And that's how the robot is able to learn from hundreds of humans simultaneously.
Yeah.
