Great to see improvements with scale. However, when improvements come with scale, will the benefits accrue to the few who can raise sufficient capital to train the most data on the biggest model?


We are making such fast progress in robotics but we still struggle to build really useful tools for people who have disabilities.

Why is this? Is it because it’s really hard from a regulatory or liability perspective? Or, is it a market size thing? Curious if anyone has analyzed this or has experienced based opinions.


Useful robotics are heavy and use a lot of power.


So the problem is more powering for time in use more than anything else? Interesting. Shouldn’t there be at least some wired prototypes then?
