"Robotics company Intrinsic has announced it will be folding into Google as the company bets on the future of physical AI in manufacturing. The company focuses on software tools to make robots more affordable and easier to use, as well as using adaptive intelligence to help the robots perform real-world tasks."
"The company describes its platform as 'the Android of robotics,' offering a universal canvas where developers can build apps for different robots, cameras, sensors and more. Also at the intersection of software and physical AI, the company aims to integrate adaptive intelligence into robots, helping them to perform real-world tasks."
"Intrinsic was started in 2021 as an Alphabet project, part of a portfolio of high-risk and potentially high-payoff startups, Waymo among them. The project will now run as a 'distinct group' within Google where it will leverage Gemini and Google Cloud while working closely with the Google DeepMind team."
