It's all getting better though, especially the robots seem to be coming along. Compare the Disney robots at the end of 2024 and 2025 2040: https://youtu.be/Y2F8yisiS6E?t=6968 2025: https://youtu.be/_waPvOwL9Z8?t=9042
I mean it's a cool demo, but it doesn't really show anything meaningful
Ah I had a typo. The vids are from 2024 and 2025. It seems to me the 2024 robots are quite clunky moving as you kind of expect from robots, whereas the 2025 one moves quite well with comparable dexterity to an animal. Which according to the talk is down to nvidia's new tech. I mean you see robots move like that in movies but I think it's the first time I've seen it in real life. Apparently they are going to put them in the Disney theme parks.
It's significant in the scheme of things in that LLMs have got quite good at text chat but for AI do to real world things like build you a house or fix your car it's got to get good at physical robot stuff too.
