TV9 Hindi · technology

A technology startup in San Francisco is hiring people to walk robot dogs for $20 per hour, approximately ₹1,700. The initiative aims to train artificial intelligence by collecting data as humans operate the robots on city streets. Participants walk the 15kg robots for 4-6 hours, using a controller or app, and must carry them back if they malfunction. This data helps Dimensional develop an open-source operating system for AI agents to control robots with minimal human intervention in real-world scenarios.
