Okay, and what is it?
Simulation. Specifically a high resolution simulation in a physics engine.
Okay. That doesn't address my point in any way. Positional motors for example, still have to be taught and calibrated in meat space, because even fractions of a millimeter can be disastrous in a factory setting.
I'm not talking product quality here either, I'm talking buildings burning down and production lines halted.
Having a pretty VR interface for some remote worker somewhere does nothing to change that.
I genuinely promise you that high resolution physics engines exist right now to simulate robots. You feed them movement code and they simulate the operations of the robot in extraordinary detail. This is used to test code without running a real robot manufacturing process.
Using software like this would give high quality feedback to train a Deep Learning Neural Network.
If someone isn't doing it today, they will be by the end of the year.
The "simulation" part doesn't matter. It won't help you actually use robotics to repair themselves in the real world.
Assuming our fake and gay economy doesn't implode by then. Hard to power the robots and simulations when there's no fucking electricity because the fascists
seizednationalized oil and gas companies (for "national security" reasons, of course).
