Yeah.
17:56
So, and I had friends, so I had a good friend who's a guy that just has a lot of connections.
18:02
I was like, "Hey, what can you do to get me out here?" And I kept pushing for it and pushing for it.

And he found this thing that one of the GB school owners had.
18:11
He owns, like, four schools, and he had, like, this fighter house he had set up.
18:16
And what you do is you go in, you live at the house, and you work at one of his schools, and he pays for your living and for food.

Which they get a lot of favoritism.
10:43
Where are you right now?
10:44
Yeah, exactly.
10:45
No, I think that's a great way to illustrate kind of the history of physical AI.

When we started Roto, we identified that this was the real bottleneck, that there's, you know, there's a gap in manipulation.
10:57
There's a lot of robots out there that can do tasks repeatedly and reliably, you know, like your industrial machines, like your FANUCs, your KUKAs.
11:03
They're pre-programmed machines, and they do the same task all day, every day.
11:06
And these are actually really the only robots deployed out there, at least in factories and scales, creating economic value.

The robot that you're building, do you have an idea of when you want to release it? Is it going to be just mostly an internal test thing or what's your plan?
