Leaving 1X and the Future of Robotics
Advancements in robotics and new adventures
1Leaving 1X
Deciding to leave 1X was a tough process. Contributing to the company's growth was a great honor. Starting as Halodi Robotics, we grew from my garage to a team of hundreds, making significant strides in robotics.
2Progress in Robotics
There has been rapid progress in robotics, especially in making general-purpose robots common in homes. Projects like NEO are paving the way for this future, showing a realistic path forward.
3Role of Deep Learning
Deep learning is at the core of advancements in robotics. 'Magical objects' like video models enhance robots' generalization abilities, opening new doors for future applications.
4Future Plans
After leaving 1X, I plan to take a few months to gain fresh perspectives. I'll be reimplementing deep learning papers and exploring the robotics ecosystem in China to prepare for future projects.
5Magical Objects in Robotics
Magical objects in robotics stand out with their unexpected generalization powers. These objects enable robots to perform complex tasks, and their development is expected to grow further in the future.
6New Adventures
Leaving 1X is an opportunity to embark on new adventures. I aim to draw inspiration from advancements in robotics and AI for my future projects. It's a time for both humans and machines to learn.
