They’ve moved on a long way from just Spot the dog, and now this humaniod is doing things that some people find hard (eg balance beam) as well as things most can’t do (backflips). Looks we are getting to another skills set that robots can do better than humans.
If not us, then certainly our kids will be faced with a choice: do they want to be programming robots and AI, or taking taking their instructions from them?
One of the Flywheel values is service. We hire and performance manage against that and the other values. There were some raised eyebrows when, 5 years ago, described service as “We deliver massive service to our A Class Customers. And eventually when we are building AI systems and robotics, we will embed them with the same aim of service too.” Here was an IT Services company talking about embedding values of service into AI and robotics.

Within my working career, I’ve seen computers go from a niche thing only a few people had, to something everyone has in their pocket. And with that cheap and simple handheld, we have AI vision analysis apps that can recognise faces, objects and certain movements as well as a human.
