Skynet Chance (+0.01%): Extending frontier multimodal models into physical robotics slightly widens the real-world action surface of advanced AI. The lack of detail limits any stronger assessment.

Skynet Date (+0 days): Continued deployment of frontier models into embodied systems marginally accelerates the timeline for AI acting autonomously in the physical world.

AGI Progress (+0.01%): A robotics-specialized frontier model suggests progress in grounding general AI in physical perception and action, which many consider important for AGI. The absence of specifics keeps this an incremental signal.

AGI Date (+0 days): Ongoing major-lab investment in embodied versions of frontier models modestly reinforces a fast pace toward general-purpose capabilities.
