Re:Covariant.ai and applying deep learning to robotics

Just curious, do you think OpenAI's approach (https://openai.com/blog/solving-rubiks-cube/) will work? They were able to use fingers in a non-trival setting. It has a long way to go before it can be deployed in any useful capacity, but to me it challenges the idea that robot fingers won't ever be viable.

I'd love to have a version of this I could use to manage my own inventory, and not be linked back to Amazon. Has anyone had experience with a scale like this?
I imagine a simple load sensor hooked up to a microcontroller and a wifi board would be a simple implementation.

This is something I've always wondered about- how would you do it? How do you break the cycle of freetext EHR notes?
Doing so could have incredible utility for sharing data across various clinics/hospitals/pharmacies/etc.
