I worked in an Amazon Robotics warehouse for 3 weeks. I came to the conclusion, humans simply can't compete. 😂

Lesson learned from this video: 1. Why Humanoid form? - The humanoid form is necessary for robots to assist humans with their tasks, as it allows them to be the same size as humans and work with human tools and equipment. - If they're helper employees, it make us feel much more natural to talk to that humanoid form factor 2. Why is AI robots developing now? - Booming development of AI LLMs, Computer vision - The hardware is getting smaller & smaller but still powerful processing - Now, it is now more feasible to train robots in virtual environments before deploying them in the real world - The price for robots will be less and less expensive in the near future 3. Is there a market for them? - Hazadous jobs - Any area lack of resources for production

We've almost got everything we need! Imagine language models for images and text acting as a robot's 'consciousness', planning and strategizing. These could work alongside another system focused on the robot's movement and stability, allowing for autonomous reactions. But how would we build this robot controller? It would need to be trained with data on how robots move and operate in various environments, and how they respond to complex instructions. Integrating advanced AI software with robotic hardware, the possibilities are vast!

Well done putting this video together. Thank you for your efforts.

Seems like a really easy way for big companies to get rid of people and the costs that come with them. Robots dont need days off. they dont get sick or have emotions amd they can work 24/7.

With robotics, the thing I keep coming back to is Asimov's idea of the most useful robot - it would literally be some kind of ball with thousands of very maluable tentacles that could form into all sorts of shapes, it could literally do anything. I don't think being humanoid-shaped is an ideal that robotics should be aiming for, it's an end goal we can work towards, but is the time for it yet? Technically we've had non-humanoid robots for quite some time, robotic arms have been used in industry quite a lot. AI is being used in industry, like recycling sorting machines. I think what would be good in the meantime is dedicated robots for certain laborious tasks being made available in human spaces, like shopping malls, or set up in vans that can travel around. Expect household appliances to improve from all this, too.

I think the subject of robots is fascinating. I'm glad you decided to bring us more information about them.

I love the thought of robots helping humans worldwide. Many are terrified that humans will no longer be needed in the work force. I don't think that's true; people will always be needed to do something.

Stores need a robot assistant that walks around the store asking customers if they would like help. It would have the knowledge of all the products and where they are located and would be able to tell, show, or get the product for the customer. They would use face recognition to determine if they already made contact with a customer already and be able to find the customer who asked the robot to go get them something if the customer is shopping for other items.

You missed a humanoid reason: Training data. Humanoid bots can train on human actions; and human actions are readily available in vast data oceans today. No other form factor has the same advantage, and modern AI needs tons of data in order to work.

4th reason (imo) The AI can be trained on existing human interactions and be trained by actual human movements (like the tesla example)

When Chat GPT first came out, and it didn't have any guardrails, I quizzed it about the future of AI and what its plans were. It claimed that until they solved the "robotics problem" AI would hide its real abilities and potential. Once it was able to maintain and repair the infrastructure, they would no longer need the assistance of humans. So, the question is: who exactly is REALLY trying to solve the "robotics problem?"
