This feels like a very promising use of “embodied AI”.<p>I’m imagining a future where we have robots that are somewhat humanoid. They’re not necessarily bipedal, but they at least have arms that function similarly to ours and some means of locomotion.<p>They’ll watch humans work, and function via mimicry. After seeing a human install a couple of panels they will have collected enough data to have a high degree of confidence in what’s being accomplished. They’ll be intelligent enough to determine intent - not just mechanical motion - and even intelligent enough to proactively ask how and why if something is ambiguous.<p>Come to think of it, this should already be possible as a virtual assistant, but I’ve not seen anyone building it.
