#2I don't want to be that guy but did they invent bluetooth for ai? Like what is MHS actually? I read it twice and still don't get it

More like MCP for robotics. IMO they are better off getting the robots to use existing human UIs than trying to get hardware manufacturers to play ball.

Oh I see, yeah I guess this assumes manufacturers will just adopt this standard universally. Clears things a bit!

It seems more like a basic instruction set, that will then be translated to something actionable for each different device. Seems like most of the work then will be in developing the drivers for whatever devices you want the LLM to access.

In the context of lab hardware there’s a ton of proprietary software and barriers to automating things. I think this is less about how to communicate, and more guaranteeing that “yes, this piece of hardware can interface with an agent” and is meant to do so. Kind of like using MCP vs letting your agent make raw HTTP requests

That 2 trillion dollar valuation ain't gonna make itself.

Yes, it turns the hardware driver problem into a translation problem (translate the hardware manual/datasheet into this protocol.)
Guess what's really good/quick at translating things?

To actually add something to the discussion though: I guess getting LLMs to control robots is cool, but would potentially have more severe consequences than pure software since it interacts more with the physical world
