This podcast interview features roboticist Ken Goldberg, who discusses the current state of robotics and how far away we are from a future where robots are commonplace in society. He argues that while recent advancements in artificial intelligence have produced impressive results, particularly in language processing, these advancements do not translate easily to robotics.
