    Depends on what is safer

    Social robots, good name however we’re still years away from them thought maybe roughly 6 or 7 years from now before they’re realistic enough

    I would hold off on adapting A.I. to robotics considering how…unpolished…A.I. is and will likely remain for the forseeable future.

      Refinement can be achieved rapidly with ai.

      AI is Just Human metadata. These devices just like the Smart phone Have Lidar sensors shooting out Infrared particles to see the environment. We are Programming the Robots How to Move like Playing a Video game and Mapping the Area. It is Just Software and with Nvidia GPU running Parallel to a CPU it can run the Program stored in the GPU that data Called AI at the same time. It’s not special. If a Crazy Human gets control Just like with anything like a Gun then it will become a Problem.

    Wasn’t there a robot that got discontinued last year and it basically became paperweight?

    Well if they remove the steering wheel but I can control it with a video game controller that would be way better. Would just need to secure it down. Imagine in your electric car Ride turns into a Mario Kart to the store with grandMa! Double Dashing out Red Shells.

    Need to move into the future mate, you still want cars with steering wheels and remote control robots.. I’m glad not everyone wants to remain in the past like you, we would still be riding horses and flying around in airships. Why are you even on a future tec channel.

    Considering how far ai has come, these robots still seem quite dated – but maybe that’s a good thing

Venture firms are turning to creators to build trust with the next generation of founders before a check is ever written. It’s a trend that’s been building with a16z’s acquisition of Erik Torenberg’s Turpentine podcast and OpenAI’s acquisition of TBPN. Lightspeed Venture Partners just made its own notable hire in that vein, bringing on Claire Zau, a seed investor with a major following on Instagram and TikTok, to source deals and co-host the firm’s new show, Lightwork, alongside CMO Josh Machiz.

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, Dominic-Madori Davis is joined by Zau and Machiz to dive deep into whether the “creator-investor” is becoming a real function in venture or just something firms are still trying to figure out.
