physically perfectly capable of doing a wide range of useful tasks but the problem is that we can't embed them with the needed intelligence to do those things so basically creating useful state-of-the-art robotics is a software challenge and not a hardware problem and so it turns out that having a robot learn how to do something very simple like picking up a bottle of beer can be a very challenging task and so in this video I want to introduce you guys to the whole subfield in machine learning that's called reinforcement learning
