How do you plan on competing with existing Chinese manufacturers. Unitree for instance sells there robots at a reasonable price and already has walking working.

Yeah, the basic robot is just a robot, albeit with open-source software and hardware For compute - we're exploring a few boards right now, but the base model will be something from Amlogic and the higher end model will be something from Nvidia
nice! For manipulation taskes, is kscale planning to train in sim mostly and transferring to real, or is some imitation learning used, like with gloves and such? maybe both? Appreciate it
I'm so glad I sent them a check asap. Super proud that there's georgia (as in 404) in the founder crew
Is there any doc on the hand? It looks surprisingly cheap.
We try to sell it for a fair price while still making money. Actually I think there will be comparably priced humanoids coming out from other companies soon
I give you a lot of credit for your communication and openness. I am afraid full-autonomy is a fairy tale to rationalize the ungodly expense of LLMs, I personally would find taking money on spec for something like fully autonomous robotics to be a little shaky, ethically speaking. But then, I don't believe this is an unsolved problem, I believe this is an unsolvable problem, so more of a philosophical difference than…
I think it's a very hard problem, but I would like to align our company's incentives towards solving it
Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

Sorry maybe I should have been more specific. I had Unitree in mind, last time I checked the humanoid with no hands was $20k and each hand was an extra $20k. Yours seems to ship with 2 hands for extra $1k (surprisingly cheap, which is great of course!). I was curious to read more about what the hands are capable of doing.
But this looks like an expensive toy.
The stuff of nightmares is this being adapted by the DoD. I can almost imagine your website as a scene in the prologue of a terminator like movie.
Nightmare 2 is this becomes a companion of some sort. Detroit Become Human goes into this. You have a theme of the robots basically wanting freedom. Which throws out a moral conundrum, if someone buys an AGI enabled bot just to be mean to it, have they done anything wrong.
I like technology , but this feels like step one to a whole lot of weird stuff.

I suspect that these kinds of things will happen with or without my involvement. Assuming that they do, I would rather that a good open source option exists
