Getting out of the way: my robotics crash course

    Anyone tried using Jev for fast AI robot decisions? Would it make sense?

      What kind of decisions though? jev does not output joint angles, and if it did it also needs to know how. It also does not take in images.

        I've seen on X that someone made a self driving car driven by Jev. I didn't check in details what it was about. I suppose you could give it some finite set of answers. Just wondering if someone tried it.

          With a car I can imagine asking questions like "am I on the left side of the lane", "am I closer then 10 meter to the next car" which feel like questions the current models could answer. I see models understanding the calibration of the robot. Maybe you could have a jev style model make decisions like "move left", "activate gripper" and do the inverse kinematics in a different system.
