The limiting factor for real AI is data. <0.001% of the worlds information is on the internet. What happens when machines get access to the rest?

Rigid robots -> tight tolerances -> classical sim + teleop 👎 This isn't the way, it doesn't scale, and it doesn't generalize. Yet so many making robots are doing this. Sure, you can get cool demos like washing dishes (decades old just like self driving cars 50+ years old) or

I hate the state of IoT with a burning passion. Everything is locked down. Just give me an API like this. I'm about to make my own 2-way audio device that isn't stupid.

US is 24% of global GDP but 40% of capital markets. Does that make sense?

I REALLY want to incorporate this into the twin so that you can train robots against your specific twin before deploying them 🤩

New achievement! Preston-Werner Ventures (through which I did my angel investing) has become PWV™ (pwv.com) and I’m raising a venture fund targeting $100M to lead pre-seed and seed rounds in today’s most exciting software- and AI-driven companies.

I'm experimenting with a little "robot" that does "jobs" like a coach that prompts you through a workout and counts your reps for you. No need to think, just show up.

First physical mockup. Printed this out last night.

I decided SpaceKit was an implementation detail so I'm rolling it into a physical device to show off applications first, circle back to an SDK later.

Working on a VR UX design for a robot. It was shockingly easy to get started with OpenXR in Godot now. Drop in 3 nodes and do some config and your good to go.

~1 week of hardware mockups.

Why start small? Might as well have the little guy be beefy enough to replace chat GPT 🙏 Not like I use the ceiling fan anyway 😆

My postures been devolving for years as a desk jockey, finally fixed it. buff.ly/sARTs1M

My brother has been making songs based on western philosophy / poems and I actually listen to music with vocals now (instead of just brain.fm all day). He's working on a second album around stoicism, I loved this one: buff.ly/BFR15FR

Shoutout to my wife Bri for getting her first single order of over 10 units! People have been just buying these fox keychains like crazy since she put it up.

I was crazy fast off the block my whole life but had garbage top speed -- turns out I just didn't know how to run, now I sort of do. Still a WIP.

Being able to print 1000 x 800 x 800 mm is pretty sweet. Have to run it off the washer outlet though...

Wiring up your own LED light fixture is pretty easy!

Epstein is wild. How many more wolves are among the sheep while the sheep dogs are on a leash? Makes me want to start a vigilante DAO 🦸‍♂️

If inches were years of "healthy" life then the Hong Kong female would be ~6'2'' and the American male would be ~4'10" 😲 ~64 years vs ~77 years What would you do with an extra decade of healthy years?
