Part 6/12:
Running sophisticated AI models locally on a humanoid robot is resource-intensive. Storing conversation history, managing context windows, and executing complex inferences demand significant onboard memory and processing power. As the AI models evolve toward full autonomy, these challenges will grow more complex, necessitating advancements in hardware and efficient hardware-software integration.
