Will GPT-6 Astra kill robotics startups? Yes. And no.
Since Astra was launched, 10 robotics researchers around me either cancel their projects or completely reconsider it. But I think the discussion now is sentiment more than fundamentals.
In this video, I covered:
1) what exactly does Astra change
2) why LLM works like a doom
3) Can and Can't for LLM for robotics
4) Emerging moats and opportunities for robotics startup
Open to any discussion in the comment.
Had a great time on @cheddar talking about the future of home robotics and how we're making robots accessible to everyone.
Thanks @Jetsetjournalists for having me!

Here's a new home robot for $3,500: Flourish 1.
Teach it tasks with your phone.
Or get skills from an App Store.
- Raspberry Pi chip
- Super-basic grippers
- 12-hr battery
- Wheeled base
- 1.5 kg per arm
Can pick up stuff, water plants, fetch items, load dishwashers.
For those asking for the link:

For the curious:
3'7" · 44 lb · 12h runtime · reaches floor to 35"
It's frontier tech. A year ago a taught task worked 60% of the time. Today, 80%. We're going for 99, and every update ships to your robot.
Developers get an SDK and can publish to the store.
Why we built it: the book you'd write, the Saturday with your kids. It's not missing because life is hard. It's missing because life is busy.
We're giving that time back to 50 homes. Numbered 01 to 50.
