ÚLTIMO EPISÓDIO 🔗
Christoffer Jørgenvåg wanted to sell a brain to the machine makers. Nobody bought it, so he spent twelve years building the machines instead: hundreds of cranes and lifting systems at Red Rock, which he started at 23 and sold to Ocean Infinity in 2021. What he took from all that steel is that the m…

EPISÓDIOS ANTERIORES 🔗
Walk into a factory that already owns robots and you'll find the end of the line automated: packaging, palletizing. Everything in between is still done by hand - plugging connectors, assembling parts, moving a lens into a jig with 10 to 20 microns of tolerance. As Sze puts it, variation kills autom…
Aurora Feng is building a model that takes a task recorded on one robot and produces that same task on a robot it has never seen. Video and action together, with no retraining and nothing collected on the new body. Every robot foundation model lab is capped by the data it physically collected. If a…
Advanced manufacturing has automated the individual process steps. CNC, 3D printing, photolithography - however complex the step, we can build a machine for it. The handoffs between those machines still run on people, and in cell therapy that means $300,000-a-year scientists spending their days loa…
James Kujareevanich is the co-founder and CEO of Vision Lab - building the missing data layer for physical AI. They go into factories, capture first-person video of real operators performing real tasks, and turn that into structured training data for frontier labs and robotics companies. The origin…
Mike Xia is the co-founder and CEO of Anvil Robotics - building the foundry for physical AI. They make the hardware, software, and data tools that let robotics teams go from zero to model training in days vs months. They've shipped over 100 robots, manufacture in Taiwan, and just raised a $6.5M see…
Arjun Subramaniam is the founder and CEO of Factory Intelligence - a physical AI company training tactile foundation models for industrial manipulation. He's toured 70+ factories, deployed robots on real shop floors, and is making the contrarian bet that application-specific systems beat humanoids …
Jared O'Leary, Co-Founder and CEO of SirenOpt, breaks down why even the world's most advanced factories are still flying blind - and what a physics breakthrough out of UC Berkeley is doing about it.
We cover what advanced manufacturing actually is and why it's different from anything most people pi…
Gary Chen and Conley Oster are co-founders of Raise Robotics - they build mobile manipulators for construction sites, steel fabrication facilities, and shipyards. Environments where the work is genuinely dangerous, the labor shortage is acute, and the dominant solution being pitched to investors ri…
Dr. Asad Tirmizi, Co-Founder and CEO of Trener Robotics, breaks down the full lifecycle of AI in industrial robotics.
We cover how models are actually built - the training pipelines, the data, and what separates people who've done it from people who've read about it. Then we get into deployment rea…
