When You Read the Fine Print, Humanoid Robots Are Going Absolutely Nowhere

futurism.com Unknown 2025-10-02 05:05:45

We tend to get fixated on realizing certain contraptions from science fiction, no matter how impractical. Flying cars. Jet packs. And now, humanoid robots. It's only the latter, however, that's anticipated to one day be a multitrillion dollar market, with big firms like Tesla leading the charge. In March, Tesla CEO Elon Musk boasted that his automaker would build 5,000 Optimus robots by the end of this year. Responding to Musk's claim, so did the Shanghai-based startup Agibot.

My First Year Without an iPhone

news.ycombinator.com Katie Lowe 2025-10-02 04:57:28

Last October, I switched off my iPhone, removed the SIM card, and inserted it into a Nokia 2780 that I ordered off the internet. I deactivated and archived my Instagram, left all the group chats, and got in touch with my European friends through email. Now, a full calendar year later, I can say without hesitation that I am never, ever going back. My north star Flip phones are somehow a contentious topic.

The genies are out of the bottle. Let’s take as a given that augmented coding is steadily reducing the cost, skill barriers, and time needed to develop software. (Interesting debate to be had—another day.) Will this lead to fewer programmers or more programmers? Economics gives us two contradictory answers simultaneously. Substitution .

One of the first things I learned while testing AI image generators is that there are a lot of things that can go wrong when you're trying to get the image you see in your head to appear on your screen. If you've ever used an AI image or video generator, you know what I mean. I've spent the past year testing and reviewing different AI image generators, and I've generated hundreds of images across services like Google's nano bananas model, Midjourney and Dall-E.
