Citrini(@citrini):For as long as we've covered Robotics, the question has been "when?"… When do we move from novelty to utility, demos to deployment? In our latest Field Trip, we sent our analyst behind the scenes of the leading robotics lab to see with his own eyes what's happening on the bleeding edge of the curve. The verdict? Robotics has reached a tipping point. Useful productivity, autonomy and embodied intelligence are rapidly accelerating but most frameworks haven’t properly focused on the drivers. Instead, we lay our own framework for the coming wave of Physical AI.
