Nah. They need to walk before they can run. In 2016, their system could locate objects in a scene[0]. In 2017, it could answer questions about a scene[1]. In 2018, it could infer how a scene looks from any angle using a couple photos[2]. Now, it can perform inference tasks in a 3D scene. Going to the real world will require more work! But they will be helped by converging existing advances[3].
