As Physical AI Advances, Bigger Models Are No Longer Enough
For years, the artificial intelligence conversation has largely centered on one question: how to build bigger and more capable models. But as AI increasingly moves beyond screens and into robots, autonomous systems, and real-world machines, a different question is emerging. Can model scale alone solve the challenges of reliability, safety, and decision-making in physical environments, or does…
