Nvidia Official Les Karpas to Attend TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 Conference
Nvidia executive Les Karpas will discuss why the robotics industry is awaiting a major artificial intelligence leap and address data scarcity problems at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026.
Les Karpas, Global Head of Nvidia Inception Physical AI, will discuss why robotics technologies have not yet experienced a ChatGPT-like breakthrough moment at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 in San Francisco.
The ChatGPT Expectation in the Robotics World
As artificial intelligence permeates every aspect of life, the robotics industry has yet to capture a similar turning point. The reasons behind this situation and their solutions are being debated.
San Francisco Event and Session Details
The conference will take place between October 13-15 at the Moscone West center in San Francisco and will bring together leading figures from the industry.
Data Scarcity and Physical AI Challenges
The biggest obstacle faced by general-purpose robots is the lack of a physical AI dataset spread across the entire internet, unlike what is available for language models.
Startups' Search for Solutions and Participants
While startups attempt to artificially generate this scale using simulations and synthetic data, the session will also feature founders of companies such as Shield AI and Colossal Biosciences.
