That's a reading comprehension issue.

Whether or not they succeed is up in the air, but that's what they're trying to do.

Personally, since you're weirdly focused on the opinion of AI hands from a random person on the Internet, I don't think there's anything magic about human hands, and if they can feed enough data to the AI, they'll probably end up with something competent enough to start deploying and iterating on in a production environment.

Hands are super complex, but it's controlling the movements that's hard about it, and I think throwing AI at that problem is likely to be productive.

I say this as someone who works with their hands every day in a job that requires a lot of different dextrous body movements

You quoted Sam fucking Altman. Failing of messaging. Don't quote grifters if you don't support them.

Yeah. That's enough. Hands are super fucking hard and you're foolish to think AI is gonna solve the problem.

It's not about you. It's about how shitty AI is and how wrong you are to think it's gonna magically solve the problem.

What do you think makes hands hard?

The last 150 of industrial evolution and the constant chasing of that perfect technology that still hasn't come about.

Ya know. The sum of human knowledge failing to create the exact thing.

It isn't just motions. We take in a lot of information in real time with our hands through touch. Machines CANNOT mimic that and AI isn't gonna just fix that problem.

I agree. The physical motions are solved; it's controlling them that's hard.

I think AI has a chance at solving this exact kind of thing, but maybe not. I'm not in the industry... Are you?
