Every time a video would go viral showing a humanoid robot jumping, dancing, or doing some other remarkable physical activity, there was a feeling among the general public that our wildest science-fiction dreams were just moments from coming to life.
The last two years have been a dramatically steeper progress curve... This is the year that people really realized that you can build general-purpose robots.
The key development is that robots will no longer need to be programmed; instead they will learn through artificial intelligence, and then share that knowledge widely. 'Once one robot has learned how to tie shoes, all of them can do it.'
Imagine copying and pasting not just a recipe for an omelette but the very act of making it.
