Inspired origin story of @geckorobotics founder/CEO Jake Loosararian (circa 2016) really hits home with my Western Pennsylvania industrial origins! Ai & Robotics are put to their best use by their heavy industry infrastructure preservation innovations! gcc.edu/Home/Staff-Directory…
"Most technology companies do not step foot into certain sectors or industries because they do not understand that there are datasets that have simply never existed before, and you need them to actually make a difference."
@jakeloosy speaks to @akashpasricha at @theinformation about what makes Gecko so unique.

I was recommended to watch the movie Patton and in the opening scene I was jumpscared by the inspiration for all the Kup stuff in Cyberverse

This was a cool listen. I think Cloud+AI is increasingly making the @levelsio -style model of a scrappy solo serial micro-entrepreneur viable, allowing one person to spin up and run a number of companies that generate income, possibly well into billion-dollar valuations.
Hope you come around on Kamala. You are exactly right as to the future of farming! #VerticalFarming

🌞 seems to have inspired a new dance craze. #SolarUndulation #SunBoogie
Replying to @GoddenThomas
Good reminder that while normally pretty reliable, most IR-based sensors simply lose in a match with the sun.

From so simple a beginning, animals evolved bodies that support remarkably efficient lifetime learning.
Today at #RSS2024 @LukeStrgar will present a similar evolution in robots:
"increasingly differentiable" body plans emerge to support ever more efficient lifetime learning.
Our submission to the @ALifeConf Virtual Creatures Competition!
Coming from the paper Evolution and learning in differentiable robots appearing @RoboticsSciSys 2024
With @Kriegmerica, @dmatthews256, and Tyler Hummer @NorthwesternU

Young scientists regularly ask me for career advice. Academia or industry? Big company or startup? US or Europe? Good scientists in AI disciplines are fortunate to have many choices. But choosing can be stressful. I always give the same advice. 1/10

2. If you're having fun, you are likely to doing good work. If you do good work, you will have impact and options.
3. If you're doing good work, you will likely have fun. So this is self-reinforcing. 8/10

A lil montage of prototyping a new robot.
Slowly getting better at editing. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° ) – at Georgia, USA

This is the best example of why it is such a joy to work with Thomas.
This is the level of love, ingenuity, elegance and storytelling he puts into everything he does. So honored to get to work with him!
One of the projects I worked on @ImperialDyson / @thrishlab is getting published! We designed a print-in-place compliant wheel that passively transforms when encountering obstacles.

Very proud of this work that shows how physical systems can be designed to passively respond to certain environmental features in a meaningful way. One can call it embodied intelligence.
