Three month ago I wrote the blog on the current 'deadlocks' for dexterity, now see the same argument from @gs_ai_ blog's post, for manipulation, contact is the task. Why dexterous manipulation is the hardest robot problem? One of the core for manipulation is to make different https://t.co/0K2neCqpGH https://t.co/FoV39MPRrK

One thing I really like about what this showed is the future possibilities of dexterity. Only grippers and underactuated hands are simply not enough, not only the long-tail tasks they can’t do, and most human tools they cannot use, but it’s also about doing it more stably and https://t.co/FoV39MPRrK
