A couple of thoughts from meeting NEO at the launch event yesterday in Palo Alto: - the robot feels extremely safe to be around, way more than most humanoid I've been around recently. - It feels lightweight. With cable control, movements are soft, compliant and appear easy to

A look at 1X's $20K Neo humanoid housekeeper robot, controlled remotely by a human with a VR headset, available now for preorder, with delivery expected in 2026

1X's Neo wants to be your housekeeper.  First, it needs to be controlled by a human in your home.  Cool with you?

The 1X launch event in Palo Alto was so tasteful and well crafted. Congrats @BerntBornich @radbackwards @ericjang11 Excited for the announcement today - something deeply human-focused and community-oriented in what 1x is building [video]

Many are proposing “move 37” as evidence that AI has already reached Einstein-level intelligence, so I'd like to expand on this specific example. Move 37, while impressive, is still essentially a straight-A student answer to the question posed by the rules of the game of Go.

I shared a controversial take the other day at an event and I decided to write it down in a longer format: I'm afraid AI won't give us a “compressed 21st century”.  The “compressed 21st century” comes from Dario's “Machine of Loving Grace” and if you haven't read it, you probably should, it's a noteworthy essay.  In a nutshell the paper claims that, over a year or two, we'll have a “country of Einsteins sitting in a data center”, and it will result in a compressed 21st century during which all the scientific discoveries of the 21st century will happen in the span of only 5-10 years.  I read this essay twice.  The first time I was totally amazed: AI will change everything in science in 5 years, I thought!  A few days later I came back to it and, re-reading it, I realized that much of it seemed like wishful thinking at best.  What we'll actually get, in my opinion, is “a country of yes-men on servers” (if we just continue on current trends).  Let me explain the difference with a small pa

OpenAI may have tested GPT-4 on its training data, violating the cardinal rule of ML, and GPT-4's exam performance says little about its real-world usefulness
