China has officially deployed a $1.4B robotic workforce to maintain its power grid, featuring 5,000 robot dogs and humanoid repairmen. Meanwhile, Microsoft’s World-R1 is finally teaching AI video models the laws of physics, effectively ending the era of geometric hallucinations. We’re also diving into Claude’s "Live Artifacts," Jensen Huang’s career advice for the AI age, and the "time-traveling" AI that knows nothing about the modern internet but still writes better code than most.

In this episode, we cover:

• A breakdown of China's deployment of 8,500 robots—from quadruped "dogs" to dual-arm units—keeping the grid running through blizzards and storms.
• How Microsoft and Zhejiang University fixed AI video’s biggest flaw by using a 3D feedback loop to ensure geometric consistency.
• The strategic expansion of GPT-5.5, Codex, and Managed Agents into Amazon’s ecosystem.
• An experiment by ex-OpenAI researchers that proves reasoning capability doesn't require modern web data.
