Prediction: frontier models as real-time robot policies at 10k-100k tok/s within 1-2 years
ATTlKA · x · 2026-10-09
A prediction gaining traction: within 1-2 years, fast inference on future chips like WSE-5/6 or next-gen Etched could make general-purpose frontier models viable as real-time robot policies at 10k-100k tok/s per stream, no task-specific training — with latency the bigger bottleneck. The thread also argues OpenAI is uniquely positioned to win robotics thanks to its scaling expertise and resources.
