AI researcher Herbie Bradley discusses the path from current robotics to self-replicating space probes. He compares current robotics to the "GPT-3 level" and suggests that training robotics control foundation models could enable highly capable manufacturing and construction robots. While they may not yet master household or military tasks, the controlled nature of manufacturing makes lunar manufacturing a possibility by 2035.
