It boggles my mind that more people aren't talking about this.

I work in robotics and seeing an Alphabet moonshot come out of nowhere to take a controlling interest in OSRC is fascinating. Even validating for those who are working on enterprise-focused solutions for robotics makers and integrators.

It seems to me that Intrinsic (and probably Alphabet as a whole) are getting wise to the big uptick in commercial robotic services that we are going to see over the next couple decades.
