Excerpted Transcript from Bloomberg: The Close

Isabelle Lee: And, you’re pitching your company as a universal safety layer across all of these physical AIs. What is stopping other robotics companies from building that layer themselves?

Samuel Reeves: Well, this is a – well, it’s really hard. Safety is really hard. Doing it well takes setting up a third-party audited development process, and then getting your technology done, and then getting that audited, and then taking that through third-party certification. So it’s kind of like developing a drug. And, nobody actually wants to actually do that if this is not their business. They want to do the job of moving pallets or digging holes or picking apples or whatever it is. So, that’s why safety is always outsourced in every other machine industry. Safety is always outsourced.
