It's linear algebra all the way down.

that’s literally what the Tesla Bot is being designed as

Can you provide a link? I know they are training robots to work in their factories, but is it using the same concepts as ChatGPT and LLMs? That will be interesting.

Google has already done that and it works really well, but a bit slowly. There is no reason the technology can not improve with time.
I think this idea is new and pretty cool however.

An easy way start would be to tape a factory line where human workers do some kind of repetitive movements. Next thing you know, we could have robots doing dishes and mopping the floor! Add ChatGPT-like abilities and it will be able to talk as well.
It would be like physical intelligence.

That's really cool but not exactly what I meant. It uses language models to understand intent and to train the robot to talk, but not to train its physical movements. In order to do that, and to train on human movement, the robot will have to have 2 arms and 2 legs.

Yes, I like your idea.

I date a robot. Semi intelligent exceeds expectations

I wish we could date robots (that look attractive and not pieces of metal), that would solve so many problems.

The problem is, these statistical "AI" models actually do pretty significant factual errors.
If you let it, for example, design yourself a rocket engine there is a fairly high probability that it will explode when you actually build such an engine and switch it on. Most of the engine could be "correct" but all it takes is an error and you get potentially catastrophic failure.
Might not be a problem with a small and cute little toy robot. Might get someone killed with an industrial robot.
So yeah, sure, you can let one of these design you a robot. Or some action the robot takes. But you need an actual human expert who knows what he/she is doing to "proofread" the output and correct the errors in the design or action.
