I had an awesome time chatting with Nathan Toups on his podcast, Functionally Imperative (‪@funcimp‬)! A great conversation about the backstory on the Alexatron project, the promise and pitfalls of AI, and the value of allowing oneself to wander and discover. Come check it out!

We are back! The past months have been crazy: we moved to a new country, said goodbye to our old workshop, set up a NEW workshop, and rescued a vintage robot along the way.

New video goes live Monday at 12:00 noon EST (GMT 17:00). Available now for our Patrons:

See you there!
