If we had to design this robotic hand to grasp an apple today, with no prior investment, we would really question whether AI training is the first thing to fund. It seems we're clinging to AI because we've already spent time and money on it, while the real problem remains the mechanics of the hand and its sensors. If the hand lacks the delicacy to feel pressure, even the best visual recognition would only identify the apple before it ends up mashed. Instead of seeing AI as the miracle solution, we should ask ourselves: Would it work without these physical sensors, regardless of AI power.
