    No, I’m talking about automonous humanoid robots specifically. The rollers and shelf bots have been around for years

    NVidia also just released a big suite of tools to train AI for robotics, it’s basically a huge physics sandbox where you can train and test models at scale before real world testing

    Boston dynamics and others are currently writing/lobbying regulations for bipedal robots so that they can meet safety requirements - current safety standards require an emergency shutoff switch, but bipedal robots fall over if they don’t balance, which isn’t particularly safe

    This is happening, and quickly. None of them have the dexterity to machine parts, but the range of tasks they can do is rapidly expanding
