Episode Open source for awkward robots
Ryan is joined by Jan Liphardt, CEO and co-founder of OpenMind, to chat about the rapidly evolving world of humanoid robotics and what it means for humans, why OpenMind is building an open source operating system for robots that processes logic in natural language, and how putting Asimov’s Laws on the blockchain might be the key to robotics guardrails.
Episode notes:
OpenMind’s OM1 is an open source OS for robots that allows robots to perceive, adapt, and act within human environments.
