The world of robotics is advancing pretty quickly. There’s been a flurry of robotics companies popping up from nowhere with impressive offerings. But what are the best robots around today? And why is this happening all of a sudden? We've already covered Figure AI before so let's see what other robots are out there.

A couple of corrections:
On the point of Astribot claiming that the Tesla Bot demo was faked, Elon did in fact openly say that it was being tele-operated at the time. So apologies for missing that.
There’s also an image of Andrej Karpathy used instead of Milan Kovac.
Enjoy the video!
Swiftly posts content corrections 👍
Yeah, I was going to respond on Andrej's and Milan's correction.
There is no citations in the description
Great video! Just a heads up that you combined the Unitree G1 and H1 robots which are different models. The G1 is 16k and weighs only 35 kgs and the H1 can do flips.
Also on the Tesla front: they're hoping to use the bot doing real work in the Austin factory before the end of this year. Based on clips, probably helping assemble battery packs.
You forgot the $200B in sex robots by 2034.
At least, I’m sure the average human would pay a lot more than 200$ per year
TH-cam would strike the video at the mention of them.
I thought they all came in with the sexual entertainment options. Otherwise I want a refund.
@@AndyMacaskillUhh no they wouldn't? As long as there isn't exploitive language, and it remains in the bounds of education u can talk about literally ANYTHING without demonitization 🙄
That is probably the only thing it will do.
"I remember when a cheeseburger was $5"
Come on Grandpa, time to go back to the old folks' home...
1965 our cheeseburgers sold on a glass plate for 35¢. Coke in a glass 15¢. French Fries 15¢. Coffee in a glass cup in a saucer for 10¢. Large Sausage, Cheese, Peppers with tomato sauce Grinder for 65¢. One egg on 2 slices of toast 25¢. Water free and it was clean! 60 years later😢.
Numbers are strange, money even stranger…
That grandpa needed to work less than one hour to get that burger. His youngest grandchildren need to work 1 ½ hours or more to get a somewhat smaller burger. Grandpa built or bought a house on that low pay. Grandkids can’t, even with a way higher education and debt to get it.
Economics is fun, but more so for gramp…? 😅
@@ArtOfHealthYou guys had access to clean water? I thought that wasn't invented until the Industrial Revolution?
@@ArtOfHealth $0.35 is around $3.50 today, I can get a burger for that still, I can actually get a double chz burger at mcdonalds, or wendy's or burgerking for that. I can also get two mchickens for that. Regular black coffee is still pretty cheap it's the highend coffee that cost's an arm and leg. When you factor in inflation a lot of stuff is actually pretty cheap compared to the old days. Only things significantly higher tend to be housing and energy.
@@musiqtee 50 years ago I had to work 10 minutes to pay for a hamburger, same today. Same burger. Same with gas, the bus, a movie... Smokehouse in Berkeley has cheeseburgers for $6 with fries and minimum wage is $18.75 and people say this state is expensive. I pay $1/sq ft rent
If a robot can keep my house clean, cook my food, clean the dishes and do my laundry... you bet that I am buying it.
I wonder if you still have job to pay for a robot when robots already can do anything😮😮
But what are you gonna do?
If you live alone in a small apartment, do you really need an assistant?
It takes me about ten minutes to vacuum my apartment. I do that twice a week, sometimes three. The dishes I need to clean consist of one plate, one fork, one knife and one glass. I do the pan and the spatula as I finish up cooking. A robot assistant would be overkill.
If you live in a house with a family, you have little bio-bots to help you with chores. Children!
To have a robot do chores instead of making it a life lesson for your offspring is just bad parenting.
I don't see the need for robots. It's just gonna kill the job market...
Or yk the children can do chores sometimes while also having more time to play and lesrn other time.
And also people with disabilities (both young and old, mental/physical) or mobility issues.
Also you oversimplified all of your chores.

I agree. I want my robo-maid-butler-chef-gardener I’d pay $500/mo for it now
@@jixxytrix1705 It's just vanity and wishful thinking. Though I bet there will be a higher demand for robots that can mimic relationships.

Don't underestimate sex robots. With how dystopian dating has become, it wouldn't surprise me if people started to go "I'd rather get a robot, he/she won't complain or divorce for half my money".
I think it'll become normal once many people start buying them. It's like online dating. You were a weirdo if you did online dating 20 years ago. Now that everyone does it, it's normal.
No STDs, no pregnancy, no need to keep her happy.
Scary indeed.
@simjam1980 Imagine someone taking a photo of themselves with a camera in the past.
Selfies indeed are normal because everybody does them.
In the past you'd ask someone to take the photo for you.

The pros and cons of utilizing artificial therapeutic surrogate companions for those suffering from long term isolation, attachment or traumatic / trust issues or deepset control and anger management disorders has been under debate in psychology for some time. The practice of interactive Human therapist surrogacy has already been proven to be problematic.
Those suffering from serious physical or health barriers to long term relationships would at least have an option to lifelong loneliness .
In some given situations, it could be beneficial as a short term stopgap to initiate contact and boundary tolerance to stimulate healing and development of real human interactions, socialization and relationship skills .
For those who do not want or cannot tolerate the multiple stresses and responsibilities of a complex committed human relationship including a new circle of extended family members and friends,
The option of totally passive and non threatening surrogates might provide a dependable source of comforting physical contact and emotional support system for their mental stability.
While the presence of artificial therapeutic companions is certainly not a threat to or even particularly relevant to most of mainstream society ,
It is possible that a small but important sector of people could be better off with a submissive surrogate than being forced into seeking and participating in a resentment filled and ultimately unsuccessful spousal or family relationship situation . Every day of the year , divorce court rates and crime reports prove that some people are simply not cut out for or capable of maintaining any stable personal relationship,especially marriage or family life.
While it's a common expression that you should "Love people, use thing's " some human beings aren't mentally or emotionally equipped or willing to handle that level of empathy and patience.
I would rather see a thing treated as a person than to see any real living person treated as a thing.
Not only would some individuals be less likely to suffer from resulting stress, proximal anxiety and financial burdens,there could be a drop in the perpetual cycle of related spousal abuse and child neglect.
Potentially preventing at least some cases of the tragedy of generational human misery and some of it's toll on society's health,rehabilitation and criminal justice system's.
Being disabled, I would absolutely like to have a robot who helps me with carrying things, gardening, cleaning etc. Will be so great! 😁
There's companies that created AI robotic limbs look that up
Robot suit would be better 😂
Same here. Finding good, affordable, help is difficult. One of the first things I say to new employees is, don't hurt me and don't steal from me.
Japan is leading the world in healthcare sector and home appliance robots. Already in the UK we have iRobot Roomba robot vacuum cleaners which use lasers to learn the layout of your home, then they thoroughly vacuum it, before returning to their recharge station.
The thing with home robots is, if they're not fully air-gaped, you essentially got a way for untrustworthy companies, countries, and malicious hackers in general, to physically get in your house and do whatever they want... It's just a matter of time before the first WiFi-powered burglaries and tele-assassinations start happening...

9:13 "You've probably seen these restaurant robots"
Yeah... I'm pretty sure 99.5% of the population has not encountered those restaurant robots.
Oddly enough, I have seen one, the dining service uses it at the senior independent living community in my neighborhood. I figured they must be everywhere if they are using them at the old folks' home. This is in the Twin Cities metro area in Minnesota. BTW.
Ive seen it at a couple asian restaurants in town. Neat little things.
I'd never even heard of them till this video.
I've seen this robot in a japanese restaurant. Unfortunately, I moved my chair a little bit too much, and the robot was blocked and couldn't move anymore
i have, it was at a chinese restaurant
Bro, that is Andrej Karpathy, not Milan Kovac 😂

This totally discredits any opinions he has on humanoid robots or neural-nets 😂😂smh. I see why he's unsure about them.
This comment needs to be higher up😂
Was looking for this comment!
I remember when a cheeseburger was $0.99
There are people in their 20s who remember $.99 McDonald’s double cheeseburgers.
And the chalupas remember the 99 cent chalupas?? God do I miss those
They still are on the dollar menu
I remember when fast food used real ingredients as there wasn't anything around but meat and potatoes! And a cheeseburger was still around a dollar or so.
Did someone say Cheeseburger 🍔🧐
Can't wait for the T-800 model. Hopefully we will have plasma rifles in the 40-watt range.

6:31 That's Andrej Karpathy, no? Kinda confusing when talking about Kovac
Coldfusion quality has been going down in the last few videos.
Indeed, that's Karpathy
Everyone makes mistakes... It's fine. Great video anyway!
I saw it as right away, I was like "wait isn't that Andrej Karpathy"
Unfortunately tagogo has a massive chip on his shoulder when it comes to Elon. I suspect Tagogo is a big believer in the use of pronouns! All his comments are full of bias when it comes Elon. This one is no exception, where he says Tesla were faking in the video. If he had done proper research it was disclosed by Tesla on X that there was an operator assisting.
I believe the real breakthrough in robotics will come from a general purpose mobility AI that can be plugged into any robotic system and can understand the different parts that makes up its body. Right now, every robot is trained to perform tasks at its most optimal state under perfect conditions in a perfectly working body. Once an AI comes out that can 1. understand the physical world its in and 2. understand how its own body operates at any given time, I believe we'll see another breakthrough. Imagine a robot with a rusty arm or a malfunctioning leg. Right now, any robot with these issues would simply fail and fall over. Now imagine a robot that understands "hey, my left leg isn't working at full functionality, but if I limp I can still complete the task I need to do."
That's the real breakthrough tech we need to see. Once that happens, robots will actually be a viable alternative.
so true. Building the body is easy enough. The mind not so much.
That is dictatorship, in a very bad way. If each robot company trains their own AI, then each AI will eventually become useful. If one AI controls all robots, the human outcome will be very dangerous because the world will not need so many people, even engineers.
Physical actions as several modalities
Interestingly, it seems like adding pain or a version of pain would help the robot know how much pressure to apply to its anatomy. I mean that's how a human or living creature knows its limits.
This is why tesla's robot is coming along so slowly. They are trying to develop it focusing primarily on the 'mental' side of things more than the physical side. If things go right for them, they may end up being ahead of the market in a few years even though they are behind right now, but we'll just have to wait and see how it plays out.

@@ArchimedeeezDEY TOOK OUR JEBS!!!
I am watching your old videos and am amazed by your transformation. You started with random videos, then moved on to reviewing smartphones. Eventually, you found your sweet spot with explanatory and detailed videos. I love your content.
The most accurate thing in the video was the $50 cheeseburger 😂 Great video!
Probably the most concerning is the military application and people with bodyguard robots with surgical precision weapon skills... imagine humans wielding the Black Mirror murder robots, it's terrifying
Sadly also the most likely field of use, nice
not that simple, they'll blow up like everything else and will be too expensive to replenish. for specific tasks sure, but for mass use on fronts, that's a thing of a few centuries down the line.
If you spill 50% of the bottle trying to open it, that’s not a win.
When you started writing, you made many mistakes, so according to you it shouldn't have been a win.
But it has been and so will it be for them as they get faster/smarter.
@@kodiko with your logic everything is a win since it’s on the pathway to an eventual success. Failure is impossible.
It would be a hit at late stage frat parties tho.
It's not a win, it's a geriatric!
@@somenygaardNow we’re being optimistic 👍
The thing I don't quite understand is why are they trying so hard to make humanoid robots? Unless it's entertainment sector, we just need them to do their work properly and without failures, no need to waste effort to make their shape unnecessarily complex. I get it, it may potentially be "cool" to have humanoid robot at home, but that's the next natural step. First things first, we should focus on making them work properly and THEN improve their appearance.
The design of a product plays a huge importance in its marketability and how people form opinions. Bare steel, motors, and wires in an inhuman shape may be more efficient in some ways, but most people aren't going to want a tree of mechanical arms wandering around their homes. Older folks and especially small children will likely find those sorts of designs unnerving.
Besides, human spaces are designed for humans, especially in all sorts of ways that I bet you don't notice. However, if you have a pet, think about the sorts of struggles they have to go through when navigating your home and apply the same general ideas to non-humanoid robots. Making a robot human-shaped to start with solves a lot of these issues.
the idea is that since our daily tasks have inherantly been done by humans, these robots could be designed such that they are as versatile, and can be substituted as seamlessly as possible for the largest number of tasks done by humans. That is the difference between purpose built robots and humanoid robots.
Possibly a sick fascination borne from skirting the consequences if or when the android/humanoids' ethics gets skewed to the point that we've stupidly allowed T1 self aware Terminators. Remember the u.s military years back, were all too penis happy to consider robotic soldiers.
6:34 That's Andrej Karpathy, the computer vision scientist that led their initial autopilot team. You can see his talks at older Tesla AI Day events.
yeah I was wondering.. two of the top AI scientists with the same face? 🤔😄
If I can buy a robot for around 50k (excluding inflation) that can:
1. Charge itself
2. Service itself
3. Clean my living space
4. Cook for me
5. Clean up after itself
6. Isn't sentient
7. Is sapient enough
8. Won't kill me
9. Lasts for a decade
I'd buy it in a heartbeat. It's more useful than a car.
I'm guessing that they will be pretty sentient (or at least will appear to be) by the time such robots will be widely available.
@@ahtoshkaa That is like saying Computers and smart phones are also sentient beings.
Because their brains are processors, a thing made of billions of transistors just to process 1s and 0s. I hardly believe that can make something sentient. If they would have a feeling that is just "artificial", an imitation.
It probably won't be sentient, but it will almost certainly spy on you, to a greater extent than your smartphone already does. Dealbreaker?
Detroit - Become Human shows that society really well. Looks like going in the same direction
It could even drive your car for you.
I love how he moves, 5:31 such graceful movements. Honestly, I would feel ashamed to impose tasks, but I’d be very happy if he can help me take out the trash. Otherwise, we could just play cards all day and dance around.
Who sliced up the cucumbers, tomatoes, pickles, turkey, and cheese?
The robots that actually power modern society. Exploited immigrant labor.
Yeah, what i thought. More like turkey sandwich assembly😂
The whole point of robotics is that they can be way better when specialised for specific tasks.
Generalist humanoid robots will always be way worse than humans, as simple things for us are incredibly difficult for them. But you gotta blow those bubbles
They dont need to be better then a human worker. Just good enough for any given task and cost less over a year or two.

Restaurant robots? Yeah, you and I aren't going to the same restaurants, clearly.
You'll tell us more about it in 2033.
At my work cafe/bar, they used to use a robot to deliver drinks. It was nothing more than a novelty. They don’t use it anymore.
I guess it's much more common in East Asia. I've seen several buffet restaurants using those robots in Taiwan. I got served by one last week in Hsinchu.
I want a robot that will not do my things for me - but will coach me, and make me a better, more skilled, more intelligent person.

Probably in 10-15 years. In 30 years, everyone will have one.
@@simjam1980 Maybe, but keep in mind that 40 years ago people thought we'd be having flying cars by now.
4:29 narrator 'its aim is to be used in homes" The robot proceeds to get into missionary position
Also, "in 10 years" is grossly underestimating the logarithmic progression curve we're currently going through. This will happen much, much faster. When the progress comes, as with all exponentials, it will seem almost out-of-the-blue and overnight.
Yeah he didn't even mention how fast robots have been developed in just the past months. In 2 years we'll already have something. In 10 years we'll be way past that point. Robots will automate most of the things by then
I think 10 years seems reasonable for it to be a general consumer item. The initial production will predominantly go to industrial and logistics applications. Then you’ll have you early adopters and tech enthusiasts working out the kinks. And finally it will go mainstream once core tasks like cleaning are ready.
I think you're underestimating the difficulties of production. Even if robotic capabilities increase exponentially (which there is no guarantee they will, it isn't as if it's a physical law), that doesn't mean they will be affordable or mass-produced in that time frame. It takes a very long time for the factories, supply chains, and organizational and supply economies of scale to reach a sufficient extent for an entirely new product category to service the mass market.
Sure, I could perhaps see a takeover in, say, amazon warehouses. Since their layouts are well-planned purpose built from the ground up and the company is very large so efficiency savings matter a lot across the whole workforce, but even more importantly they have a shitload of money. Most small to medium sized businesses, which are the businesses that employ the large majority of people, will not have sufficient capital. Nor will they see significant enough gains from efficiency savings to make up said costs for it to make sense for them. Not until the price comes down, and or the robot is genuinely almost as fast and as good as a person.
So perhaps they will increase in capability as quickly as you say (I'm very doubtful), but in terms of actually seeing them used commonly in the real world, it will likely be much longer. I'm talking 20 years minimum, even building a factory to mass-produce these robots would likely take 3-4 years from the first brick being put down to become operational, and obviously, we're nowhere even close to that step anyway. Not to mention potential delays since the factory would have to be bespoke since it's not like anything that came before.
its a sigmoid, not an exponential. which is why I think AI is reaching its plateau. its noticeable I believe. though I could be wrong.
@@dodgechance4564 You're lost lol, Tesla is already producing Optimus v3 and have over 20. Expecting to be in production by the end of 2025.

As do I
Calling wage growth “wage inflation” is a sneaky way to make good things sound bad
It's an accurate term. The lack of wage inflation worldwide is actually a massive problem right now, because price inflation outstrips it by a longshot.
5:03 Skynet will remember that guy...
For the near future, I forsee the same problem as with vertical farming. The key problem is - that manual labour is cheaper and more abundantly available and more versetile than robot labour. The robot labour may be more productive, but overall - it requires more costly operators, servicemen and programmers to operate in a changing environment, and if it brakes - you cannot easily replace it like a simple physical worker - you need to purchase another one - which is more costly than just hiring some extra workers, or better yet - giving your other workers extra duties for a limited amount of time.
For example... if an old person requires help with daily tasks - she can hire help every other day for a small amount of money - like someone doing laundry and cleaning once every 2 weeks. If someone is incapable of basic house chores - he / she can hire varius helpers and there is a large pool of them - from specialized care and nursing people, to just asking neighbors or their kids to do some chores for a few bucks here and there... also family members are key - often younger children will help their elderly family members for free.
Purchasing a home robot is expensive and it requires knowledge and service that an ordinary person cannot afford - even a very basic robot (basically a replacement for a signpost or an advertisment screen) is very expensive, requires assembly, knowlegde of how to program or use commands etc. Still very non functional even today.
I know the arguments for robotic labour have not changed since the last decade: no wages, no sleep, no rest, will work in hazardous environments or tough climate - but it has not happened yet. McDonalds still has people frying the burgers and not robots. Sure, they have sacked a bunch of cashiers due to rising wages, but notice that they replaced them with simple touch pannels - but the labour is still being done - just not by McDonalds workers - this is not replacing workers with robots, this is shifting a part of it's workers to other tasks and forcing those tasks upon clients - it's the same as if at a restaurant you hail a waiteress to order drinks, but instead of bringing them to you she points out where the glasses are and drink filling station - and you go and do it yourself. Her job has not been replaced by a robot - you are doing her job. The labour is still there, the worker has been tasked with other tasks and you are paying the same and doing part of their labour yoursell. The rising costs of labour didn't make businesses turn to robots, no, they are turning all services basically into a salad bar - where you go with your plate and fill it yourself, pay for it and return the empty plate - all the job is being done not by robots, but by clients. It's still much cheaper to hire a minimum wage worker, train him for a day or two and have him do cleaning, cooking, serving, unloading boxes etc and he is also flexible - you can switch his tasks on a go - just tell him to grab a mop or get some boxes from the freezer - and he will do it. With a robot - it requires a setup and controlled environment - you cannot tell any robot now to "stop frying and get a mop and go clean a mess in the next room" - or to clean the toilets. A robot needs precise instructions, repetative tasks and monitoring to not screw up - that is why, we don't see them at simple jobs. Even in a warehouse - I saw a robot that firstly impressed me - it was just a stationary arm picking up boxes and stacking them up on a pallet and instantly I thought it would be usefull at shop that sells a lot of packages - but the more I thought about it, the less appealing it got - sure it does a lot of labour for free, and never tires, but he almost never hire workers just for 1 task alone, appart from many factory workers (and those have been replaced by robots decades ago) - a warehouse worker doesn't just pickup boxes and stacks them - he also loads them and unloads them on a truck, drags the pallets with a forklift , signs documents, decides which deliveries are for warehouse and which for the office, he also maintains the warehouse - cleans, carries out the trash, pick ups stuff, cleans spills, calls on the supervisor, opens up and closes down the building, maintains stuff, he also moves stuff out of the way so that the pallets migh pass or people get in - and sometimes he does stuff outside, sometimes inside - and he is simple to replace - if he gets sick, someone else can cover for him with minimal supervision, but what if you expensive robot that is stationary and only stacks boxes has broken ? You need to call a specialized technician - it's more like a computer breaking, than a physical worked getting injured - you can replace a worker within minutes, you cannot replace a broken computer - it needs to be setup, passwords input, programs installed, the broken one needs to be move out of the way and stored. You need either expensive on call servicemene or specialized staff - like the IT department, who are way more expensive than simple manual workers.
There is a myriad problems and high maintenance costs for simple jobs to be replaced - sure, if someone is doing one single task - his job may be on the line, but also not fully - like if you are just packing stuff - a regular worker will notice when things are wrong - let's say you are selling shoes online and you hire a worker to carry stuff from the shelf to the table, pack it and put in on a pallets - a worker will realize someone misplaced shoes and put the wrong item on the wrong shelf - a robot will not find the item, because he will not think to look for the shoes where they shouldn't be. A worker will open the box, to check if both shoes are there, is they are both for left and right feet, if they are the same model, color or size - finally if they are the same side inside the box than what's on the outside label - a robot will not do those tasks. A worker will notice if there is an error in the address that a robot might miss - for example if somebody made a mistake in their email adress and wrote gamil instead of gmail - which happens - a robot will not notice this, since he doesn't know that people make such mistakes and it takes experience on the job to know such issues occur - something which programmers won't think off, and simple repetative training might never occur and fix.
There are many tasks that will replace people with robots, but some jobs won't - even if labour is expensive, replacing one worker with 5-6 robots is not saving you any money, and we are very far away from a robot that can do multiple tasks as well as a human can.
The picture used for Milan Kovac is actually Andrej Karpathy
Robotics will be crazy in the future once certain obstacles are passed. Even helping ppl at home with disabilities etc would be realistic
Mind blown. The future is scary, and will only get better. AI is improving but i think one cause of concern that AI has that will contribute to robotics is it's ethical dangers. Since the neural networks built for robotics are probably trained by data that these AI models use, and with the performance issues encountered by the bots, it's a lot of work that needs to be surmounted. But the future is surely bright
I don't want AI or robots to take creative tasks from human. I want them to do physical work (like lawn mowing), and free-up human labour. Also, I want a home robot to track what I eat, log it, and guide my cooking & grocery-buying later in the day / week. Help me be a better human, achieving my goals.
I'll get one when it doesnt come on a subscription plan.
Robotics brought to us by Adobe.
Honda’s ASIMO robot was definitely ahead of its time, with fluidity and speed of movement better than most humanoid robots today.
I just love the fact that Coldfusion used Ghost Voices from Porter Robinson in this video. I am a huge fan of the Virtual Self album!😊🙌🏽 Great video, I am always learning alot of things in them!
People aren't gonna have robot assistants! It's just gonna destroy the job market
The main idea that comes to my mind is how capitalism, human creativity, the search for cost efficiency, and aims not to pay others. This is just slavery 4.0 with A. i and robotics. Since it has no soul, since it isn't human or an animal with no humane rights authority on your back, how can we get away with this? Eventually, humanity will have to come to grips with existence and the cost of an idea or good if that even matters anymore. With the discovery of infinite resources on asteroids in space and countless suns and planets with gold, diamonds, cobalt, and uranium, will these things matter?
you think there will be local department stores in 10 years!
Yeah ones full of robots buying stuff for their owners and complaining about them to their robot friends
Calm down. Box stores will be here until anti trust laws actually start being enforced
no
Robot: I'm finished all my chores master... what shall I do now?
Human: Go away.... batein.
Dagogo, your "Does it get easier" song is a banger! I think it's your best musical production yet. It sounds like a hybrid between ODESZA and Tycho. Amazing, Keep it up!
The person against Milan Kovac’s name is actually Andrej Karapathy. Edit it if you get a chance. Funny enough I have worked with both of them 😁
2:48 Ghost in the Shell intro reference
Sure our robot overlords looks cute in their childhood xD
Amazon doesn't need humanoids, simply make them operate like an assembly line and build robots specialized in each step are enough to automate them.
where are the self-driving cars?
Musk: next year
😉
Crashed into a market bubble.
Facing the same issue as the rest of AI - unable to get the last percents of accuracy when in a weird environment or faced by uncommon scenario
They already exist
Have been around for a while.
Tesla just released the v12.4 update, which is yet another step forward. Very smooth and confident, human-like driving. Only two videos so far, so not many data points yet, but looks very promising.
And v12.5 and v12.6 are coming within months, with major improvements and new capabilities.
If things go well, by the end of this year cars will drive safer than humans in almost any condition.
It also helps that Tesla is deploying insane amounts of training hardware.
1900: Only 1 car out of 10000 Horse Carriages in NYC. 1916: More Cars than Horse Carriages 1930: No Horses! Just Cars! In 30 years from now, what? 2054?
Love to see Nate Petrosky and Narroway Homestead featured here. His content is awesome!
All hail Lord Minion! I salute his loyal Knight Az. :D Yeah Nate is just chill.
Time to invest in the stocks of these companies... so I can have money when there aren't any jobs left and people struggle with amenities such as "groceries"
By the time Apple gets into the vegetables marker, it's over.
that picture isnt of Milan Kovac, its Andrej Karpathy...Also, Tesla never claimed that the demo wasn't tele-operated and later confirmed that the folding was indeed teleoperated and meant to show dexterity.
he pinned the correction
@@aram00001 ah didnt notice before, and i read through...
I get people sometimes asking if my warehouse job is in danger from robots. I often tell people, "Sure, they'll replace us eventually, but I think they're going to have human powered warehouses for a long time to come."
Then I'll hear, "But it's already 87% accurate in a controlled demonstration setting!" to which I'll tell them, "If it's only able to successfully pick up and place 87% of items under those conditions, then that means that out of 2800 items it'll drop almost 400 of them on the floor." They're coming for us, eventually, but it's going to take multiple decades more development and infrastructure investments to get the performance for humanoid robots to not only match humans, but at a scale able cost that is actually cheaper than human labor.
The main two things that have changed the landscape, is 1: Advancements in Neural Processing, 2: The Extremely low cost of Rapid prototyping through 3D Printing.
Animatrix Second Renaissance Part 1 and Part 2 are coming closer and closer by the day. Can't wait for the Million Machine March. Lol good times are here folks.
Cheers 🍻
If you ever hear the robot start to cough, you know there's a guy under the suit
a robotic hand in a factory is already doing a better job than a human would ever do. Why would you probably want humanoid robots to complicate things by doing the same thing but worse?
6:30 That's a picture of Andrej Karpathy, not Milan Kovac
For $40,000, The little guys cheeks better clap whenever he walks by.
“So that their movements are very natural” - says the company representative with the robot like head shaking and eye brow bobbing, wide eyed expressions. So natural, so human, so relatable. Oh, he is a hooman, not a robot?
I work for an automotive company, we have literally thousands of ABB and KUKA robots, still need real people though
Until the toilet cleans itself, I don't believe anything that's been said.
Smartest comment so far
tbf, there's probably toilets like that in Japan
@@denislavgeorgiev7968 In almos all countries, but Japan is one of the few markets were they are popular.
15:45 robots at chuck e cheese were entertaining us for years.
"You look lonely... I can fix that"
The idea of robots replacing so many human tasks in the future sounds interesting to me. Seems inevitable that robots/AI will replace 99% of human jobs eventually.
But the main concern that i have is, if every human is free to do whatever they want in the future and didn't have to work, then who carries out the "maintenance" work on the robots and makes sure that they're working correctly?
Some nerd being paid 200,000 $ an hour.
6:36 - isn’t that Andrej Karpathy
That speaks for the information quality of this channel
You got an error in the video. That guy you used for the picture is Milan Kovac is someone different. He is Andrej Karpathy.
Give me a robo wAIfu
Give me a fully functional R2 unit. All the bells and whistles, including walking (that's been a tough nut to crack for the Club, even mad scientist Tom Hellwig's 2-legged only R2 isn't totally accurate and he doesn't have a 2-3-2), opening panels, sounds, lights, 2-3-2, all of it, even that stupid downstairs walk he does to get to the Falcon.
There is no controversy about the Optimus demo. Elon quickly confirmed the shirt folding was telaoperated
Huh, I think I've heard of robots
I think the challenge of accepting AI and robotic humanoids is how they can fit in the global economy without it being disrupted and have millions of people without a job.
Every time the question is asked "Is this the future or is it a fad?" The answer is almost always fad. Even when it is the future, it's an over hyped and exaggerated future.
Almost always is the key phrase here. Right now most people are likely underestimating how much robots and AI will change our world in a few years.
There's no way imo that we won't have humanoid robots before 2030. Pandora's box has already been opened and we are in a new epoch.
AGI by 2029
Elon himself stated that the robot was being remotely controlled in the t-shirt folding demo. They are partly training optimus remotely, partly with video learning input.
So not really any drama there. Please fact check better instead of fueling FUD.
Also: that's Karpathy, not Kovac...
FUD is called basic reasoning to everyone that isn't trying to scam money out of people.
my robotics professor participated in that DARPA competition, he told us how one of the most difficult thing was to get the robot to climb either in and out of the golf cart or the stairs that had debris on it, he also talked about on crew that basically brute force it by adding treads so their robot would just push any debris even though the challenge technically was for balance and walking navigation
I know animation when I see one. The only amazing thing here are the animators who created these videos.
I've waited long enough for Rosie from the Jetsons to become available 😂😂😂😂
Bring on the stepford wives. You thought a PS5 was hard to get.
The mix of ai and robotics will be one of the greatest collabs ever. I can imagine a robot well versed in all knowledge of humanity upto this point and it learning things about the universe that we haven't stumbled upon yet. Its the biggest boost to science to create a self learning mechanism
Oh you are just going to neglect that EX Robots are also the well known sex doll producer EX Doll? That's the most important detail!
Probably scared of TH-cam censorship
@@laststand6420 He will still get demonetized , the algorithm will know the footage.
Yeah but exrobot is industrial not consumer. Not yet anyway. Exdoll is consumer arm.
I hope to see robots in long-term healthcare centers soon
if detroit become human becomes real you already know Im buying one of the baddies 😈
I want a bot that looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger in the early 1990s. I'll dress that bot up in black leather jacket, pants and a pair of Ray Bans.
