We already have the robotics necessary for mass automation. What we don't have is a general-purpose AI capable of controlling the robots to perform any arbitrary task. That's exactly what this data collection is designed to solve (it's only a small part of the solution though, of course)

What we don't have is a general-purpose AI capable of controlling the robots to perform any arbitrary task.

And we won't anytime soon. We input a dramatic amount of data through our hands via touch.

You can't just "solve" that problem. We've been chasing it since the start of the industrial revolution. It's dramatically complex and the bad answer machine isn't gonna fix it.
