A podcast on AI, robotics, and intelligent machines. Conversations on embodied intelligence, autonomous systems, and the people building technology for the physical world.
Robites is a podcast about how machines move, sense, decide, and work in the real world. We take a deep dive into the front lines of autonomous systems, embodied AI, and the hardware that brings intelligence out of the lab.
How AI models move from screens into machines, and what it takes for robots to work reliably outside controlled demos.
The perception, planning, and control problems that separate a working prototype from a system people can trust in the field.
Where robots are already changing production, fulfillment, maintenance, and the daily mechanics of physical work.
The costs, constraints, and business models that determine which robotics programs make it out of the lab.
The research methods that matter in practice, from manipulation and simulation to multimodal models and real-world evaluation.
The safety, certification, and governance questions that emerge when autonomous machines leave the research setting.
