Or cook a meal. Much more useful than driving a car, because in a car you're mostly idling anyway so you might as well drive.
But if the car drove itself, we could cook meals in the car...
why? in what world are you so busy that you dont have "enough time" to go to your home, take time to unwind, clean up after a day's work, cook a meal for you and your family and enjoy a family dinner/lunch/breakfast?"
replace cooking with laundry/cleaning/bathing/repairing/small fixes around the home?
is life REALLY SO FAST AND TOUGH that you have to do multi-tasking basic human social/personal proceses?

#113Saw a great toot yesterday. Startups and media business are looking to make a windfall on AI generated art, music, code, writing, and other services. The payment models will be subscriptions, pay per use, and other models that make more money the more content is produced. But there's still no AI (with associated mechanics) that can fold laundry. (I think the latter would be really useful.)
I just want some AI that can cut my hair, exactly the way I want it.
I worked on this for a year :)
It was called buzz robotics and had a couple posts make it to the front page here. Even got a YC interview.
I haven’t gotten around to writing a post mortem but I’ll just say - it’s a very hard problem to solve given the dexterity and safety requirements.
Maybe one day.

Kind of. They all run Stable Diffusion because they released fully open source. There’s still competitive advantage to owning, training, and gatekeeping access to models. MidJourney and DallE are both superior to Stable Diffusion along many axes. Monetizing models is tricky because it’s so cheap to run locally but so expensive in the cloud. Except if you release your model such that it can run locally all advantage i…
Why is it expensive to run in the cloud and cheap to run on a device? 1. Commodity hardware can do the inference on a single instance (must be true if a user device can do it). 2. It’s apparently possible to run a video game streaming service for $10/month/user. 3. So users should be able to generate unlimited images (one at a time) for $10/month? Maybe the answer is the DallE/Midjourney models running in the cloud a…
Gpus are expensive. You need at least 10 gpus to quickly render stable diffusion images. If you want to run a service you need more of them. Thousands per month easily reached.

I was impressed with FoldiMate's approach here and really liked the CEO, Gal, but unfortunately the founder foundered and FoldiMate folded, mate. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/FoldiMate
Yes, but I want an AI that tells me what kind of laundry folding machine to build, or better yet designs it for me. That's where we're going.

One of my first hardware|software projects was a hair cutting robot, that was the early 1980s.

If this were true, restaurants would already have these robots. Also, I'm talking about real cooking, not some mechanized approximation that produces meals akin to fast food, or the microwave stuff you can already buy in the supermarket.
As a robotics engineer I don’t think it’s true that “if it were a robotics problem it would be solved.” Robotics for non industrial uses are basically in their infancy. Also I am of the opinion that the best way to make a meal is a purpose built series of small machines to perform different tasks. So you have an onion preparation machine which peels and cores the onions and maybe also performs onion-specific slicing.…
Interesting . I agree that arms and hands are probably not necessary and that custom tools are better suited. One think that came to mind when you mentioned many chambers and cooking systems; these must be easy to clean to avoid food waste getting stuck.
Re: Bunny AI
#118Am I the only one disappointed by this new wave of AI hype? Seriously, autogenerated avatars? When are our best minds going to work towards actually improving the lives of people? Not monkey JPEG scams, not chat bot bureaucracies, not self-driving cars that fail in bad weather and kill you, but something that actually alleviates humanity's biggest problems. Energy, homelessness, pollution and the environment, affordable housing crises in the West, content moderation, the loneliness epidemic - there's so much that needs to be done if we can just step out of the current hype cycle and focus on human problems, not just looking for ways to use cool tech.

What in the world… This is such a schizo comment. I feel sorry for you and your cousin. I hope it works out somehow in life
Good evening, Who could help me unmask my hacker who is none other than my dear naughty cousin. Certainly very strong in his field but who does not digest that his nasty little cousin did not at all appreciate being raped from these 4 years and this for 10 years my silence allowed him to build his empire and I filed a complaint well after his ascent. A dismissal was pronounced and not an acquittal. No place = lack of evidence and witnesses, yet everyone is aware. For 14 years he has been spying on me, hacking my phones, computer, cameras, microphones even in my daughter's room, in the toilets, in short James Bond bathroom live. To see the police you need proof and he has a long arm finally this family full of success have very long arms, I am the ugly duckling me who dares not to accept submission. Finally it is a real hell that continues. So if anyone can help me?? He is known at least he was known under the pseudonym of kerim. He works at Expleo (Toulouse, Colomiers) His name is Abdelkrim Mimouni Do not hesitate to contact me if you too do not accept the unacceptable whatever the status, whatever the power, the number... Thank you very much, I do not don't know what to do anymore good evening "They thought of burying
