Gathering the raw materials
📚
▸ LIKE I'M 5
We grab every book, article, video, and example that seems relevant to what we want the robot to be good at. Nothing is sorted yet — we're just collecting everything that might help.
▸ WHAT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING
Engineers scrape websites, license datasets, and pull from databases to assemble massive collections of text, images, audio, and video. Nothing is filtered yet — it's all raw input.
AI teams scrape, download, and collect massive amounts of raw data
The data can be text, images, audio, video, or structured records
At this stage nothing is cleaned or organized — it's all raw material
