Chen: First consumer robots will focus on navigation rather than physical manipulation
“If I have to guess, it probably would be a home robot that don't involve much manipulation. So think of it as like a home robot that might be like a Roomba. It can follow you around, like you can talk to it. So like it has that navigation of movement aspects o…”
Chen: Warehouses won't be lights-out; workers will oversee 30 robots each
“I don't think it would be fully lights out and no human, at least in the near future, but I think of it as would be very robotics augmented. Like, so think of one person would be able to oversee 10, 20, 30 robots.”
Chen: The robotics ChatGPT moment will happen in industrial settings before consumer
“And before humanoids are fully widespread I think we will see that the chat GBT of a moment for robotics being articulated in the industrial settings earlier than in the commercial settings, like, because those are the places that can actually justify the hard…”
Chen: The Bar for a Robotics ChatGPT Moment Is Higher Than Pure Software
“So I would say, like, the bar for the chat GPT moment for robotics is higher. Like, you need to solve the generality, like, which is the same kind of problem, but you need to solve it with high level of reliability.”
Chen: Robotics foundation models diverge from multimodal models on precision
“There's really no, very, no precise grounding. And there's no precise understanding of the physical world that's naturally occurring on the internet. So that's, like, one of the first thing that you'll find Kind of the departure of robotics foundation models f…”
Chen: Scaling robotics foundation models requires commercial robot fleets, not labs
“And the only way to collect enough data is to build fleets of robots that are actually creating value for customers that, so that you can collect those data in production. Because even if you try to scale up data collection in a lab environment, There's a limi…”
Chen: Robotics will propel AI forward through grounded, embodied physical data
“And so we found robotics to be such a great way to both utilize the advances in AI, but also we think of it as a way to also propel AI forward. Like this is where you get the grounded data. This is where you get that embodied data of not just AI that is traine…”
