Stewart Alsop interviews Nizar, CEO of Pixel Robotics, on the Crazy Wisdom Podcast to explore the intersection of AI, robotics, and perception. The conversation covers a wide range of technical topics including how transformers enable multimodal representation across text, images, and voice, the role of world models in predicting physical interactions, the advantages of diffusion models over traditional LLMs for certain applications, and the challenges of achieving real-time processing for robotics applications. Nizar explains Pixel Robotics' work on creating accurate 3D meshes from smartphone cameras for companies like L'Oréal, moving away from specialized sensors to make the technology more accessible through sophisticated algorithms, and discusses the future of robotics as closing the perception-action loop to enable robots to perform real tasks beyond simple demonstrations.

Pixel Robotics derives its name from combining perception and action in robotics, where the pixel represents the digital perception component and robotics represents the physical action component. The pixel serves as a metaphor for how robots must quantize and digitize continuous analog information from the real world into discrete units that computer systems can process, similar to how pixels are the fundamental building blocks of images on a screen. This quantization process is essential because numerical systems cannot work with truly continuous data and must convert reality into tractable digital representations that algorithms can manipulate.2. The transformer architecture has created a fundamental unification in how different types of data can be represented and processed across multiple modalities. Before transformers, researchers working on natural language processing, computer vision, and audio analysis used completely different approaches and methodologies. The breakthrough of transformers was establishing a common representational framework that could handle text, images, voice, and other data types using similar underlying mechanisms. This unification is what enabled the development of truly multimodal AI systems and represents one of the most significant advances beyond just the language modeling capabilities that initially gained public attention.3. Current transformer-based systems represent a brute force approach to learning that will likely be superseded or enhanced by more efficient algorithms. Despite claims that we have exhausted internet text data for training, significant improvements continue to emerge every few months through algorithmic innovations rather than simply adding more data. Future developments will likely involve more specialized attention mechanisms that focus on relevant information rather than correlating everything with everything, mixture of experts architectures with small specialized models, and approaches inspired by biological systems such as logarithmic compression laws and event-based processing that humans use naturally.4. Diffusion-based language models represent a promising alternative to standard next-token prediction that could produce more accurate outputs through an iterative refinement process. Unlike traditional language models that predict one token at a time and cannot revise earlier outputs, diffusion models treat text generation like image denoising, starting with a noisy representation and progressively refining the entire output across multiple steps. This holistic approach allows the model to reconsider and improve all parts of the response simultaneously, potentially leading to higher quality results, though it may be slower than current autoregressive methods. This represents an important direction for overcoming fundamental limitations in how language models currently generate text.5. For robotics applications, real-time performance and small model size are critical constraints that differ significantly from the requirements of large language models deployed in data centers. Vision transformers are being used as a testbed for developing efficient real-time algorithms because they require far fewer computational resources to train and test compared to large language models, making them more practical for rapid experimentation. The goal is to achieve millisecond-level response times with minimal memory footprint so that robots can react quickly to dynamic environments and run on affordable hardware that can be embedded in actual robotic systems rather than requiring expensive server infrastructure.6. Practical robotics implementation requires moving beyond specialized sensors to software solutions that work with ubiquitous devices like smartphones for tasks such as three-dimensional reconstruction. Pixel Robotics evolved from building specialized scanning hardware to focusing on algorithms that can generate high-quality mesh representations of environments using only smartphone cameras, making the technology far more accessible and practical for real-world deployment. This approach enables applications ranging from industrial robotic arm control to virtual showrooms, and more importantly, it allows anyone to capture three-dimensional data without expensive equipment, which can also help generate larger training datasets for future AI development.7. The next frontier in AI and robotics is closing the perception-action loop to enable robots to perform real practical tasks rather than remaining as demonstration systems or toys. While significant progress has been made in cognitive capabilities through language models and in robotic mobility through mechanical engineering advances, the critical challenge is integrating perception with action through systems like Vision-Language-Action models. The fundamental starting point for learning this integration is simple perception-action exercises, such as programming a camera mounted on servo motors to track and center a colored object, which demonstrates the basic principle of using sensory input to drive physical response that underlies all more sophisticated robotic behaviors.

this episode explores the rise of Neuro-Symbolic AI (NSAI), an emerging technological framework that merges the pattern recognition of deep learning with the logical structure of symbolic reasoning. By 2026, this hybrid approach has become essential for creating explainable and trustworthy intelligence in regulated sectors like healthcare and autonomous systems. The sources detail how NSAI mimics human cognition by combining intuitive, fast processing with deliberative, rule-based logic to solve the "black box" limitations of traditional neural networks. Technical architectures such as Logic Tensor Networks and DeepProbLog are highlighted for their ability to embed formal rules directly into neural models, significantly enhancing data efficiency and transparency. Ultimately, the research positions this integration as a necessary evolution to ensure AI remains rigorous, accountable, and capable of complex reasoning.
AI is only as strong as the data beneath it, and as it moves into the core of the enterprise, fragmented, duplicated, and poorly governed data is no longer hidden in the background, it's amplified, exposed, and impossible to ignore.This week, Dave, Esmee, and Rob are joined by Edward Calvesbert, VP Product Management for IBM watsonx AI & Data Platform, to dig into the foundations of enterprise AI, from data silos and the SaaSpocalypse to lakehouse architectures and agent‑driven workflows.

Realities Remixed, formerly know as Cloud Realities, launches a new season exploring the intersection of people, culture, industry and tech.As AI accelerates the shift from networks to ecosystems, organisations face a growing tension between fast‑moving technology and slower, socially driven organisational change. Success in the “Never Normal” will depend less on intelligence itself and more on leadership qualities, judgement, narrative, trust, and the ability to create space for corporate explorers to build the Day After Tomorrow, not just optimise today.This week, Dave, Esmee, and Rob are joined by Peter Hinssen, keynote speaker, author and lecturer and co-founder of nexxworks to explore how leaders navigating through rapid change, focused on transforming uncertainty into opportunities for growth and innovation..

Katharine Jarmul, Privacy in ML/AI Expert & Author of Practical Data Privacy, joins Hugo to unpack why most AI privacy advice is theater: and what technical privacy actually looks like when you're shipping LLMs, agents, and multimodal systems into the real world.In this episode, we dig into how to build defensible systems in an era of AI agents and multimodal models: why system prompts (and your entire agent harness!) should be considered public by default, and why “privacy observability” is as critical as data observability for anyone building with LLMs today. Multimodal is what changes the threat model: identifiers hide in images, audio, and metadata, not just text, and the old anonymization playbook doesn't cover it.Vanishing Gradients is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.We Discuss:* No Convenience Tax, you don't have to trade privacy for utility: high-utility AI products can be privacy-preserving through technical controls like privacy routing and input sanitization;* Public Prompts and Harnesses: assume any instruction or secret in a system prompt or agent harness will be exfiltrated; don't put sensitive info there in the first place;* Privacy Observability, tag and track data flows so information is used only for its original intended purpose: catch design flaws before they become legal problems;* Technical Privacy, implement mathematical and statistical constraints directly into ML systems and data flows so privacy is measurable and enforceable, not aspirational;* Tiered Guardrails, a three-layer approach: deterministic filters for hard rules, algorithmic models for nuanced classification, and internal alignment training for behavioral baselines;* Federated Learning Is Not Privacy, model updates in FL leak sensitive data on their own: you must layer differential privacy or encrypted computation on top, or you're reverse-engineerable;* Anonymization Spectrum, navigate the “grayscale” of privacy in multimodal AI, balancing data utility and individual risk as identifiers hide in non-obvious places;* Privacy Champions, embed privacy accountability directly into development by training and incentivizing engineers inside product teams;* Red Teaming as Ritual, your goal is to attack yourself: practice thinking like an attacker, and turn privacy testing into an organization-wide creative ritual rather than a siloed security task.You can also find the full episode on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube.You can also interact directly with the transcript here in NotebookLM: If you do so, let us know anything you find in the comments!

WHO DO YOU BLAME?Trump, duhPaul Atkins, duhSEC re-tread: served as an SEC Commissioner from 2002 to 2008 under George W. Bush Private Sector Influence: founded Patomak Global Partners om 2009, a powerful consulting firm that advised major financial institutions (like Goldman Sachs) and crypto giants (like FTX and Coinbase) on how to navigate the very regulations he now oversees.the wealthiest SEC Chair in history: $330M net worthUpon being confirmed as Chair in 2025, Atkins sold his stake in Patomak Global Partners but refused to disclose the identity of the buyer, leading critics like Senator Elizabeth Warren to call the payout a "pre-bribe" from industry players.Shortly after taking office, Atkins oversaw the dismissal of high-profile "regulation by enforcement" cases against Coinbase and Binance, effectively handing the keys of the financial system to the crypto industry that funded his firmIn 2006, Atkins infamously argued that granting executives stock options right before good news was released shouldn't be considered insider trading: "It is cheaper to pay a person with well-timed options than with cash."During his first stint as Commissioner (2002–2008), Atkins was a staunch opponent of increased oversight for investment banks. He is frequently blamed for ignoring the systemic risks that eventually led to the subprime mortgage collapse.Elon Musk (DOGE):Under directives from DOGE, the SEC was required to submit plans for "large-scale reductions in force" (RIFs). This resulted in the termination of many probationary employees (those with less than two years of service) and several senior directors at regional offices.To avoid even more aggressive firing, the SEC offered $50,000 buyouts to staffers who agreed to leave voluntarily. This led to a significant "brain drain" of veteran trial lawyers and investigators.Staffers linked to Elon Musk and the DOGE initiative were placed in key administrative roles (like the Office of Personnel Management) to oversee these cuts, effectively bypassing the traditional civil service protections that usually slow down government layoffs.Biden, for allowing so many enforcements MMHudson Technologies Announces Election of Alan Sheriff and Jeffrey Feeler as Independent Directors. WHO DO YOU BLAME?Top shareholder Ernest Lazarus (9%). Lazarus is primarily a biblical figure from the New Testament known for being raised from the dead by Jesus after four days. The name represents resurrection, returning from the brink of failure, or a person overcoming extreme adversity. I'm thinking he needed a Sheriff in case all that digging up corpses from cemeteries went sour.Director Loan Mansy. Getting a good loan is all about putting out feelers to different banks so Loan needed a Feeler to get shit done.Director Vincent P. Abbatecola.Forgive me, maybe I watch too many episodes of The Sopranos but Vinnie used to be the Chairman of the National Packaged Ice Association and that just sounds a bit scary and a bit made up. Like, put him on Ice, Vinny.Speaking of death, Vinny is also a director on the United Hospice Board.And speaking of God, he also serves on the St. Thomas Aquinas College President's Council. St. Thomas Aquinas was declared a “Doctor of the Church” and had mystical experiences. Feeler and Sheriff? That is so Tommy Aquinas.Director, CEO, President, Chair, former COO, former CFO and top shareholder (6%) Brian F. Coleman, who has been with the company since 1997 and somehow still sits on the Nomination Committee! Dude, that is soooo cheating and you know he was the one who asked for a Sheriff and a Feeler. DRMATTMicrosoft Pauses Carbon Removal Purchases.Satya NadellaChair and CEO with 27% influenceIT WAS HIS TARGET - carbon negative by 2030One year later on LinkedIn: “As a company, we've set ambitious climate goals to be carbon negative, zero waste, and water positive by 2030, and we're making progress as we work towards a more sustainable future”And last year, MSFT's chief sustainability officer Melanie Nakagawa: "In 2020, Microsoft leaders referred to our sustainability goals as a 'moonshot', and nearly five years later, we have had to acknowledge that the moon has gotten further away."It's worth pointing out - any target set by an executive they don't hit is a failure of leadership - either the target was ill conceived, not ever meant to be attained, or they just failed to actually manage to the target. There aren't other options - if I set a target at Free Float of $1bn in sales by 2030, invest entirely in crypto, lose it all, and we achieve $45 in parking tickets by 2030, do I blame the changing market environment and just skip the target?

Realities Remixed, formerly known as Cloud Realities, launches a new season exploring the intersection of people, culture, industry and tech.One of the most fundamental challenges in modern computing is the growing hardware–software mismatch. As Moore's Law slows and performance gains no longer come “for free,” software built on Turing‑era, sequential assumptions struggles to keep pace with today's highly parallel, heterogeneous hardware. That disconnect is now a central constraint on innovation.This week, Dave, Esmee, and Rob are joined by Peter Richards, advisor and AJ Guillon, founder of YetiWare, to explore why this mismatch persists, what it means for organizations today, and how emerging approaches may redefine the relationship between software and hardware in the years ahead.

In this episode, I sit down with Jay McTighe to revisit the core principles of backward design and why they matter more than ever in today's classrooms. We unpack the ongoing tension between content coverage and deep learning, and what it really means to design for understanding and transfer. Our conversation explores the power of performance tasks as a way to shift from simply learning content to applying learning in meaningful, authentic contexts. We also examine how AI can serve as a design partner, helping educators clarify goals, rethink assessment, and create more purposeful learning experiences.

This conversation was originally released in February of 2025. We're replaying this episode because Cognex sits right at the intersection of AI and robotics. As the market focuses more on physical AI and automation in 2026, machine vision is becoming an increasingly important part of that story. Today we are breaking down Cognex, the leader in machine vision. Cognex builds the cameras, sensors, and software that allow factories and logistics systems to see. Their technology inspects products, detects defects, reads barcodes, and guides robots across manufacturing lines and warehouses around the world. Cognex is not your typical recurring revenue story. It is a cyclical industrial business that has grown by repeatedly finding new “S-curves” in automation. From early semiconductor inspection to modern logistics systems and AI-driven vision, the company has spent decades expanding the applications of machine vision across industries. Our guest today is Brett Larson from NZS Capital. Brett walks us through the history of machine vision, Cognex's unique culture and founder story, and the company's position inside the broader automation ecosystem. We also discuss how Cognex sells into factories, the competitive dynamics with companies like Keyence, and why new technologies like deep learning could unlock the next wave of growth.
