Thx Daniel,

There were hints the video was faster than real time.  The egg cracking
scene for instance, that was a big clue.

Thanks for the clarification.  This is a good thing for upcoming robotics
engineers: there is still work to do.  Plenty of it.  We want a K2SO.  We
all do: a wisecracking robotic valet to come along with us and help us in
everything we do.

Hello spike, I'm sorry to disappoint but for those who want a bit more in
depth information I stumbled upon this link today:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39022996

" This is in teleoperated, not autonomous mode. Training data is collected
while teleoperating. That robot can do some things autonomously, but not
anything like the whole meal task.

The Github repository is more useful.[1] That separates autonomous from
teleoperated mode. Also, there's video at 1x speed. This thing is actually
very slow in autonomous mode.

It's real progress, but the hype exceeds the results.

I was hoping it was autonomous, but looked way too good to be true. =(

Best regards,
Daniel
