If nature computed both through evolution, then maybe it's approximately the same ratio. So roughly the time it took to evolve embodiment, and roughly the time it took to evolve from grunts to advanced language.
If we start from when we think multicellular life first evolved (~2b years), or maybe the Cambrian explosion (~500m years), and until modern humans (~300k years). Then compare that to the time between first modern humans now now.
It seems like maybe 3-4 orders of magnitude harder.
My intuition after reading the articles is that there needs to be way more sensors all throughout the robot, probably with lots of redundancies, and then lots of modern LLM sized models all dedicated to specific joints and functions and capable of cascading judgement between each other, similar to how our nervous system works.
