π€ Gemini Moves Into Hardware
Wild update today you guys. Google DeepMind just hired the former CTO of Boston Dynamics, and it feels like another big sign that AI is about to spill fully into the physical world. The article basically says DeepMind wants Gemini to become the Android of robotics. One AI brain that can plug into almost any robot body. Here are the parts that stood out to me: - DeepMind bringing in Aaron Saunders to level up hardware expertise - idea of Gemini as a universal robot operating system - push toward robots that work out of the box with many body types - rising competition from startups and Chinese companies like Unitree - hardware getting cheaper and more accessible, which fuels faster innovation - researchers predicting a real robotics breakthrough moment in the next couple years Iβm curious what you all think. If AI becomes the default control layer for robots, what kind of automations or real world use cases do you think weβll be building sooner than we expect?
