Embodied AI is changing this. In 1-4 years, VLA models will have their mythos moment. What’s missing is the volume and variety of training data in an open, accessible form, and that’s a hard problem. A hard problem that smart, well funded people are working on solving.

So yeah, for now, it’s all ethereal. It’s going to get real all of the sudden, just like AI hit the hockey stick in 2026.

The "embodied" part isn't going to be solved in 4 years. Robots break down constantly. You guys making these ridiculous predictions have obviously never worked in a factory or something. Heck, I've gone through a bunch of robot vacuum cleaners and still can't find one that doesn't get wedged under my furniture or tangled up in area rug tassles.
