Life in the Singularity Ep. 6: Robots, Edge Compute & Longevity Escape Velocity
Matt McDonagh opens episode 6 of Life in the Singularity on how the intelligence explosion moves from screens into the physical world through robotics. He walks through industrial arms, collaborative robots, Amazon-style warehouse systems, surgical platforms, autonomous driving, and the bipedal humanoids that are arriving because they fit elevators and doorways we already built. The spine of the hour is edge compute: local GPUs and on-site inference so latency does not wreck 3D manipulation or cobot safety, plus the OODA loop that jet pilots, software agents, and robots share as they sense…
