Knight Rider (2025/2026) will kill us all (Was: Vanishing Point . [Le Dot])

Hi,

Now I have the feeling we are minutes away
from robotic AI. Wondering why all the AI Laptops
have now GPUs with ray tracing hardware.

Combining LRM (Large Reasoning Models) with a
3D-Worlds modality could do the job. One could
use genetic algorithms to produce synthetic

training data. This might challenge the
connotation behind the holy grail of AI,
called "Embodiment":

"Der Schweizer Informatiker und Robotik-Experte
Rolf Pfeifer nimmt in diesem Kontext den
Standpunkt ein, dass Intelligenz ausschließlich
verkörperten Agenten, d. h. realen physischen
Systemen, deren Verhalten in der Interaktion
mit der Umwelt beobachtbar ist, zugeschrieben
werden kann.",
- How the body shapes the way we think. A new
   view of intelligence, Pfeifer & Bongard, 2007

Bye
