toy robots

the company robosen makes small transformers robot toys 

which are small robots that transform into toy cars 

and talk some prerecorded lines 

but those robots are not intelligent 

they only walk a little and transform on command 

but if those robots were upgraded 

with hardware from a cheap smarthone 

so that they could connect with wifi to chatgpt or grok on the internet 

then those robots would be able to talk with some intelligence 

with their original robot voices 

and chatgpt or grok would be able to learn from talking with users 

and those robots could walk with some intelligence 

or transform into a car and drive with some intelligence

so that the robot doesn't fall down from the table 

and the robot would be able to walk or drive from one room to another 

when the user calls for them 

and more importantly chatgpt or grok could learn 

from the toy robot walking around indoors 

since some people won't be able to afford to buy a tesla robot 

for their homes 

chatgpt or grok could synthesize the voices of the original voice actors 

so that the optimus prime robot talks with the optimus prime voice 

with all the intelligence of chatgpt or grok 

example: 

a boy child does his homework 

but the homework is difficult 

so the boy asks optimus prime for help 

and a toy semi truck drives itself from the other end of the room 

the boy lifts the toy semi truck up on the table 

and the toy semi truck transforms into the optimus prime robot 

and optimus prime looks at the homework 

and asks the boy what part of the homework he needs help with 

the boy points in his math book 

and the toy robot uses all the intelligence of chatgpt or grok 

to help the boy with his homework 

x86

the x86 patents for 486, x86-64 and amd64 have expired 

according to google gemini 

so according to chatgpt 

it would be possible to build a functioning x86 cpu 

with those expired patents 

but the patents for avx and other functionality has not expired 

according to google gemini 

and according to chatgpt there are some projects 

like vortex86 and opensoc86 

patents in usa usually expire after 20 years 

so chinese companies could develop and produce a x86 cpu 

and sell it on the international markets 

completely legal 

but that cpu could possibly have limited functionality 

unless the companies involved 

develop or buy their own technology 

to give the cpu more functionality 

microsoft windows is made from technology consisting of many patents 

and as the product is continually developed, more patents are added 

but as patents in usa expire after 20 years 

it's interesting to note that 

windows 1.0 was released 1985 

and windows 95 was released 1995 

and windows xp was released 2001 

according to wikipedia 

but it would probably take a lot of reverse engineering 

for another company to make a windows product that works 

but there is the reactos project 

both private and business customers 

probably prefer to buy x86 cpu from intel and amd 

and windows from microsoft 

but since those customers have invested a lot of money 

into software and hardware in the x86 windows ecosystem 

and a lot of time and effort into training 

then those customers 

would probably like if there were functioning open source alternatives 

to both x86 hardware and windows software 

so that those customers had alternatives 

if intel, amd or mictosoft discontinued their x86 windows products 

or even worse if intel, amd or microsoft went bankrupt 

rebreather

a rebreather for diving 

could use electricity for carbon scrubbing 

if it's possible to make the technology compact enough 

and according to google gemini 

electricity is used for carbon scrubbing in big industrial processes 

so if it's possible 

to make the carbon scrubbing technology small enough 

then it could be used in rebreather equipment 

used by firemen, divers and astronauts 

and a bigger version of the electrical carbon scrubbing technology 

could be used in 

submarines, high altitude aircraft, spacecraft, space stations, 

cbrn hardened military ships, 

cbrn hardened military vehicles 

and cbrn hardened facilities such as bunkers 

if a space station used electrical carbon scrubbing technology 

then it would enable the space station to reuse its air indefinitely 

as long as it gets electricity from its solar panels 

and no chemical filters would be needed 

so replacing chemical filters 

could be removed from the logistical process 

which is of some interest 

since the logistical process of space stations relies on rockets
