Talk about skating to where the puck is going. Fantastic article as usual. Definitely caught me napping in the "trough of disillusionment" but this is a wonderful wakeup call. What's interesting is that nobody talks about Hyundai which owns Boston Dynamics. Those robots are doing parkour. Could the mechanical sophistication they have mastered be a nice fit with something like this Figure 01? Or is there some crazy interdependence in developing the neural stuff with the physical movement? Totally over my pay-grade! Thank you as always for the wonderful work! For those that haven't seen the videos from Boston Dynamics, they are amazing IMHO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqF8g3xcD5c
Thanks for this research and sharing your discoveries on Seeking Alpha. I am old enough to remember bulky carphones and huge personal video cameras. The changes to current smart phones was methodical.
This genie is just coming out of the bottle. Changes from this technology will likely be rapid. Part of me is excited and part wants to "gulp."
If it were me deciding (and I am so, so glad that its not!), I would key on MD-level diagnosticians as a place to start ....because the humans who do this are not very good at all and they are very highly paid....and a relly good one needs to have an enormous amount of data at his fingertips .....
Who owns these robots? Have studied Scientific Management, and this is just another extension. A really good lawyer could argue that working class people own the intellectual rights, where every robot mimics a human gesture. When the Jetsons was a TV show that family had a robot. The futurists thought everyman would own a robot and send that robot to work in his stead. Didn't happen that way of course. Are robots the ultimate consumer product? Is there a conspiracy (Anti-trust?) to keep consumers from having robots? First there were computer guided weapons, now a computer is the weapon. Robotics is historically similar to the psycho pharma business. The actual companies are secondary to the effects. I would say if you like robotics, buy real estate.

My favorite TV robot was on Get Smart. Hymie, kill the lights!
Ha ha ha ha ! Me too!
