.@AppliedInt CTO Peter Ludwig says the model is only 1% of a physical AI system:
"General purpose models that come from companies like Anthropic or OpenAI, those are great and they're very useful for very general purpose tasks. But when you're dealing with things that have a very deep safety-critical component, things where lives are literally on the line... just the model is not enough."
"That's like 1% of the full solution."
"These very, very complex workflows to actually build physical AI maybe would require switching between 20 different tools in the past for different tasks, and deeply understanding the precise flow of information between all of those things to accomplish your end goal."
"Now with Dana, all of those complex workflows can be very seamlessly orchestrated from an agentic interface where you're able to write things in plain English and receive answers in plain English."
