Also, to me this means future self-driving transit will be commoditized.
If robotaxis can be as cheap as $10K, then their main cost per passenger journey will be the electricity to run them.

Humanoid workers and surveillance buggies: ‘embodied AI’ is reshaping daily life in China.

A three-year UBI study done in Germany shows that a guaranteed monthly check increased labor market exploration and increased work satisfaction.

A lot of these open sourced AIs have been released that way to undercut competitors. Many people still think AI will consolidate into the hands only the biggest of Big Tech players, but it doesn't seem to be happening yet.
They are also capable of making decent cars they sell for as cheap as $10-15,000.
Also, current LLMs are great at modelling best practices.
Most disease diagnosis, even rare diseases, follows predictable paths. Human doctors would have to have superhuman memories to do as well.
What's more exciting to me is that this knowledge is now free. Free as in beer.
People talk of UBI, but what about universal services that cost nothing?
It's a no from me. I suspect as the US gets more deregulated for AI, it will be more no's from people around the world.
Now that scaling is hitting a wall, it will be interesting to see what methods like this continue AI's progress.
The company's website says they are using generative AI too.
They are using it to generate virtual environments to train the self-driving AI. Waymo is using generative AI to do the same.
This will be a great way to channel vast sums of money from the American taxpayer to rich elites, for which the taxpayer will see little or nothing in return. Something the US public are about to see a lot more of.
While people usually focus on carbon neutrality, I often think decentralization is renewables' most underappreciated aspect. Everything it touches can happen at the home and community level. The Haber-Bosch process is the epitome of the 20th century large scale heavy industry model. Now here is a solution replacing it at the level of individual farms.
I suspect much of robotics will be decentralized too, and with that, they may decentralize automated manufacturing. In a few decades, it may seem quaint that people shipped so many things halfway around the world.
Now that the new US administration is about to gut AI regulations, this idea gets even worse.
He said it again a few days ago on a Reddit AMA.
Perhaps the most interesting comment from Altman was about the future of AGI - artificial general intelligence. Seen by many as the ‘real’ AI, this is an artificial intelligence model that could rival or even exceed human intelligence. Altman has previously declared that we could have AGI within "a few thousand days".
When asked by a Reddit user whether AGI is achievable with known hardware or it will take something entirely different, Altman replied: “We believe it is achievable with current hardware.”
The problem for all the investor funded AIs, is that data centers are huge costs. They're burning through billions of dollars every month. That makes sense if one of two of them emerge as dominant players who own most of the market share for future AI businesses.
If they all keep under-cutting each other by using open-source. It's more likely companies like OpenAI will crash and burn first.
