Intel just joined Elon’s TeraFab project in Austin.
This isn’t about chips.
It’s about controlling AI infra.
20 years ago, Amazon, Microsoft, and Google built data centers.
That became the internet
Now it’s happening again for AI
Whoever controls compute controls the future.

I recently spoke with Jinhyo Kim (CEO of DOGU Robotics) about the reality of security robots.
Not prototypes.
Not pilots.
Actual missions in the field.
Question is: how fast does this scale?
China just kicked off the flying taxi era.
Not prototypes:
• Certified passenger drones
• Real flights
• Factories scaling production
AI is moving from software → physical infrastructure.
Cities are about to go 3D
Who catches up first?

They just connected human brain cells to a computer
Biocomputing is up to 2M more energy efficient than supercomputers.
Brain: 20W
Supercomputers: millions of watts
It isn’t intelligence
It’s keeping neurons alive
Companies like Cortical Labs are already building this
Everything AI does—ChatGPT, Midjourney—is just math.
Neural networks = pattern recognition via equations.
Not guessing. Predicting.
The “black box”?
Billions of calculations.
Once you see it, AI becomes buildable.
What would you build?
#AI #MachineLearning #Startups
NVIDIA x Palantir isn’t about models. It’s about deployment.
NVIDIA brings compute.
Palantir brings data + execution.
Together → full-stack AI that actually runs real operations.
Most AI fails at this layer.
That’s where the moat is forming.
Who owns the stack wins.
Delivery robots were supposed to replace drivers.
Billions later, they still fail in the real world
Sidewalks > AI
Reality > demos
They work in warehouses.
They break in cities.
Robotics isn’t an intelligence problem
It’s a reality problem
Where do robots actually win first?
Black Mirror wasn’t early. It was accurate.
Now it’s happening in Atlanta.
Autonomous security dog “packs” are replacing guards at ~50% lower cost
→ Remote pilots
→ Thermal vision
→ Real-time surveillance

Jet suit paramedics just changed emergency response.
On Helvellyn:
• 1h 15m climb → 3.5 min flight
This isn’t innovation. It’s time compression.
When you turn hours into minutes:
• survival rates jump
• infrastructure shifts
• physics becomes the only limit
Ping-Pong Might Be the Key to General-Purpose Robots.
HKU MMLab + Kinetix AI are training humanoids with egocentric vision + whole-body control.
This isn’t a demo.
It’s real-world autonomy in motion.

Nomadic drones are changing how we inspect power grids.
They detect faults early, cut downtime, and bring real-time visibility to critical infrastructure.
This is how you build a resilient grid.

The Gap in AI Isn’t Capability. It’s Execution.
Satya Nadella at World Economic Forum:
AI isn’t held back by tech.
It’s held back by behavior.
This is execution, not innovation.

Lucid just entered robotaxis.
Partnering with Uber + Nuro.
EV + autonomy + distribution = full stack.
This isn’t about better AI.
It’s about controlling the system.
Robotaxis are becoming infrastructure.

AI can reply to 10,000 followers in your voice.
But that’s not the real value.
The edge is:
→ analyzing DMs
→ spotting patterns
→ turning insights into content
AI = audience intelligence at scale.
Would you use it?

sharing our new project Smash!🏓
We built the first outdoor humanoid table tennis player with fully onboard perception — no MoCap, no external cameras. check the video for details.
paper and code on the way!
