Robots are waiting for a ChatGPT moment: Nvidia’s Les Karpas explains why at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026
NVIDIA Inception's Les Karpas will discuss at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 why robotics lacks a ChatGPT moment, citing missing internet-scale physical AI datasets.
NVIDIA Inception's Global Head of Physical AI, Les Karpas, will speak on the Real World AI Stage at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026, held October 13-15 at San Francisco's Moscone West. His core argument is that general-purpose robots lack an internet-wide dataset for physical AI, unlike language models from OpenAI and Anthropic. Founders from Shield AI, Colossal Biosciences, FieldAI, and Foxglove will join related sessions.
