Will robotics models run 100x faster in months? A 3-part speedup breakdown, and the latency question
micoolcho · x · 2026-11-10
Responding to criticism that agentic robotics models are too slow (Anthropic's demo video was actually 60x speed-edited), sippeyxp predicts a 100x speedup within months via: 5x fewer model steps, 5x fewer tokens per step, and 3-5x better token throughput. micoolcho pushes back: even with a tuned harness, would network latency become the bottleneck?
