Who said their market was to replace minimum wage workers? You made that up then tried to convince us that it’s a bad idea.

- simplyluke 9y agoBingo. Their market is the DoD and anyone said department will let them sell to. The fair comparison isn't $10/hour workers, it's the entire cost of training, equipping, and employing a soldier (even in non-combat roles) and/or current military tech such as drones.
- ajross 9y agoI did no such thing. I said their market was not billion-plus consumer applications as the case with much ML research, and that this might explain some of the lack of commercial interest mentioned upthread. I won't take a position as to whether this robot is a "bad idea". But pretty much anyone can see that (relative to the problem difficulty) it's a "worse idea" than, say, photo recognition.
