🧠 Bloomberg TV — OpenMind (@openmind_agi) | Jan Liphardt (Founder)
Key Takeaways from the Interview After watching Jan Liphardt on Bloomberg, one thing stood out immediately: 👉 The robotics race won’t be won by hardware — it will be won by software. Here are the key insights that really stuck with me 👇 🤖 1️⃣ Software defines the future of robots, not hardware
Hardware shapes the body.
Software determines whether a robot can actually operate in the real world — adapt, learn, and interact meaningfully. 🏠 2️⃣ Robots are moving from labs into real life
We’re hitting a major transition point.
Robots are no longer just demos or experiments — they’re entering homes, workplaces, and public spaces.
This is no longer theoretical. It’s a commercialization inflection point. 🧍‍♂️ 3️⃣ Social & home robots are the hardest — and most important — challenge
Industrial robots thrive on repetition.
But social and home robots must understand humans, language, emotion, and context.
That complexity makes this problem much harder — and far more impactful. 🧩 4️⃣ Hardware-agnostic platforms accelerate the entire industry
If every team rebuilds the full stack, innovation slows.
A hardware-agnostic software layer lets companies move faster and focus on what makes them unique. 🧠 OpenMind’s positioning is crystal clear:
They don’t build the body.
They build the brain and nervous system. 📱 5️⃣ Robots should work like smartphones, not appliances
Robots shouldn’t be closed, static products.
They should be platforms — operating systems with developer ecosystems. ❌ Robot ≠ appliance
✅ Robot = OS ecosystem ❤️ 6️⃣ Emotional intelligence is not optional
If robots are going to live alongside humans long-term, emotional interaction isn’t a “nice-to-have.”
It’s foundational. 🎯 7️⃣ OpenMind’s core mission “To make general robot intelligence portable across different embodiments.” In simple terms:
🧠 Intelligence should be transferable, not locked into a single machine. 🔥 Final takeaway
The robotics race won’t be decided by who builds the strongest body —
but by who builds the most portable, reusable intelligence. That’s the real game. #OpenMind #Robotics #AI #SoftwareFirst #EmbodiedAI

New scaling laws apply to autonomous surgery. Traditional surgical robotics scale through hardware. Capabilities improve in steps. Each step requires redesign, validation, and long refresh cycles. Progress is discrete and punctuated. Software-native autonomy scales differently. For surgical intelligence in a closed, controlled operating room environment, learning compounds: - iteration is continuous, not episodic - every procedure produces structured, high-quality data - adding new tasks strengthens the core system rather than setting it back This creates a fundamentally different curve. There is no near-term plateau, not because limits do not exist, but because the ceiling keeps rising. As autonomy improves, the platform expands into new procedures, which accelerates the next round of learning. Each new procedure becomes easier to automate than the last. The bottleneck shifts from hardware refresh cycles to clinical and regulatory throughput. The difference is not a better physical robot. It's a more efficient scaling model. At @andromedasurg, our north star development metric is optimizing our iteration cycle time. We’ve been able to go from clinical learning to new features to an updated clinic-ready product in less than a month. In hardware-focused medtech, the same cycle typically takes a year or more. I’m curious how other techmed companies have optimized cycle times and scaling velocity. #andromedasurgical #surgicalautonomy #softwarefirst #techmed #medtech #healthtech #aiinsurgery #deeptech #scalinglaws

🚗 A Bigger Engine Doesn’t Make You a Better Driver If autonomy were just about hardware, it’d be like believing a faster engine teaches you how to drive. The real challenge isn’t raw compute — it’s software that learns, reasons, and adapts. Miss that, and you’re left with impressive chips… and brittle autonomy. #AutonomousDriving #AI #SoftwareFirst #Tesla #FSD #MachineLearning $TSLA $RIVN
