AI Supremacy
World Models, Humanoids, Synthetic Data and Improved fine motor hand and agility marks a new beginning. New Robot Arms race begins in 2025. With Deep Dive on Unitree.
The so-called ‘ChatGPT’ moment in robotics is nearly here roughly occuring in the 2025-2030 period. New training capabilities due to world models with innovations like Nvidia’s Cosmos and the collaboration like Genesis open up faster training capabilities using synthetic data that translates well for training robots and physical AI software that translates well to the real world.
This ChatGPT moment for robotics is enabled by a few trends:
- Improvements in the fine-motor control of the hands (arms) of general purpose Humanoid robotics
- Improvements in the agility of robots (e.g. Unitree, Boston Dynamics)
- Better world models for synthetic data training environments
- More funding for robotics, AI drones and national defense use cases
- Emergence of fast-learning robots due to physical AI advances
