Agility Robotics’ Damion Shelton: “Legs over wheels”

Some look at humanoid robots and only see Skynet, but Agility Robotics is building increasingly person-like machines with one goal: to serve mankind. From the one-legged Thumper to a two-armed, two-legged delivery robot named Digit, Founder Damion Shelton has long been at the cutting edge of robots meant to do our bidding. Damion, Bryan and Alex geek out about how to make these robots actually work, where we may see them used in the future, and how technology research funding is really used. Bryan and Damion agree there’s only one way to build smart, successful AI—but what does their consensus mean for the future of artificial intelligence and self-driving cars?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
