I know there's been a lot of hype on X

0:02

about robotics, but guys, you guys

0:04

haven't even really seen anything yet.

0:05

The next couple years are going to get

0:07

pretty exciting. I still think that we

0:09

are going to have deployment challenges,

0:12

and people's estimates for how many

0:14

robots we will see out in the world

0:16

doing things are way, way, way too

0:18

aggressive. I think the deployment

0:20

scaling is going to be exceptionally

0:22

difficult with full bipedal humanoids. I

0:25

think we'll see a lot of wheeled

0:26

humanoids that will start to get

0:28

deployed maybe at some point starting

0:30

next year, but bipedal deployment,

0:32

there's just too many unknowns, too many

0:34

safety issues. Going from five robots in

0:38

a warehouse to 50 robots could take a

0:40

long time. Going from five to 50 to 500

0:43

on a site, forget it, guys. We're

0:45

talking about years. So, again, this is

0:47

where some of the CEOs are like not

0:50

being, I think, truly transparent with

0:52

the investor base. I think deployment is

0:54

going to be slow, but it will happen.

0:57

The TAM is still the biggest TAM that

0:58

we've ever seen in human history, and I

1:01

have, I would say, more confidence today

1:03

than I've ever had that these robots are

1:05

going to be able to deliver the goods in

1:07

terms of what we think they can do.

Interactive Summary

The video discusses the future of robotics, emphasizing that while there is significant hype, actual deployment will be slower and more challenging than many suggest, particularly for bipedal humanoids.
