Matic detects wires using neural networks trained on 300,000+ simulated (#AirSim) images and 25,000 real ones, learning different shapes, colors, and lighting. So instead of rescuing a stuck robot, you can just let Matic do its thing! The map shown here is a semantic map, helping Matic understand your...

These images show wires in varied shapes, colors, textures, and lighting. Different positions and angles help Matic path-plan smoothly.

So Matic Robots offered to send me their new vision-only robot vacuum/mop. I saw the Shopify CEO post about it on X, so I figured, why not. For a brand-new company that just started shipping a few months ago, it's actually a pretty great product. Here's my short review: Things I like: • It's quiet, really quiet. I've been using a Roomba J7+ robot vacuum for a few years and the Matic is MUCH quieter. You can easily have a convo with it on next to you. • Because the robot is vision-only, when it maps your house, you get color data/almost 3D map. • Its wheels are big, which means it can traverse areas much more easily than smaller robots with tiny wheels. • The app is great. Easy to use and intuitive. Much better than the iRobot app. • It handles hair better than my Roomba. Hair always gets wound up on the edge-sweeping brushes on the Roomba. • You can control the robot from your phone like a little remote control car with precise control. • It does a good job of detecting objects like wires • Doesn't constantly bump into things like my Roomba •The unboxing experience is the best of any robot vacuum. They even displayed my and my wife's names on the screen as it rolled out of the box lol. Things I think can improve: • It can sometimes take a little while longer to vacuum than the Roomba, but that's improving over time • It's a tall robot, and while the extended vacuum arm is cool, it can't go under certain furniture or tables that my Roomba can. I think toe kick cleaning is coming soon via software update tho? • The robot mops up backwards. This means some of what you spilled could get on the wheels, which can get messy. Although, some competitors do this too. • This is a pro or con depending on the person: The robot has a HEPA filter bag, as well as the water tank, integrated directly into the robot itself. This means there isn't a large base station it needs to dock at and empty. But this results in you having to throw away more bags than you'd probably like. The bags only cost $2.50 each (vs $6 for Roomba), which is pretty cheap. Ideal solution would be something more reusable. I'd also love to have a live camera feed so I can see what it sees while cleaning. The Robot vacuum/mop costs $1,095. Overall, it's a cool product. Improves on many things that other vacuums don't do well/are annoying. While this is a first-gen product, it's a great first iteration, and it feels pretty polished. Nice work Mehul. Note: Matic didn't pay me. I don't have a referral/affiliate link. They aren't an account sponsor. They just sent me the robot. Ok, back to EV news lol.

Here's a copy/paste prompt recipe and vid showing exactly how to ask an LLM for an interactive map with satellite/map layers + a georeferencer that lets you see how old maps correspond with modern geography. Today the computer can’t make good print maps (that's your hill to climb ) but it can, with five bucks and twenty minutes, make good interactive maps. No software/GIS knowledge necessary, you just need a few nouns and an LLM. Scroll to the bottom for the repo/live map if you want those. I'm using Claude Code as an extension in VS Code but you can use the Claude CLI, Cursor, whatever. 1) Let's grab an old cadastral map and see who owned big tracts of a city; I found this an 1854 map of Niagara Falls, NY I found in the Library of Congress: , grabbed the .jp2, saved as a jpg from photoshop. 2) Let's ask Claude Code for a map. You can see exactly what I did in the video but my prompt, sans simple "hey it's busted" debugging, is written out in the following paragraphs. I explain the map-specific nouns in brackets. You can likely dump this whole thing in your LLM window and it'll work; I'd try plan mode + skip permissions. THE PROMPT Make an interactive map with MapLibre GL JS [maplibre is a javascript mapping library, a FOSS version of Mapbox GL JS. This lets us display tiled map data and arbitrary images on the map] Add basemap toggles with Esri satellite, Carto Positron, and OSM [these map layers require no API keys for light usage; Carto Positron is a nice road map layer and OSM is ugly but comprehensive] Add a globe/mercator projection toggle [I think the globe looks better at low zooms] Add a layer panel on the left with visibility checkboxes and delete buttons. Add a search box on the map that flies to results, with deletable pin markers [Makes this easy to get to your area of interest] Include an interactive local georeferencer: drop a JPG, pick ground control points on a zoomable/pannable image viewer, place them on the map, watch it warp with a progress bar centered on the map. [The georeferencer uses math ("affine transform"??) to match points on the old map to points on the new map; generally you click road intersections on the old map, match them on the new map, repeat a dozen times and everything aligns] The georeferenced map overlay defaults to 25% opacity with a slider above the control point list. [I want it easy to see the underlying modern geography] Add Export/import control point buttons [this saves the control points as a JSON so you can save and reimport your work] Add a button to export the warped image as a GeoTIFF with a .prj [In case you want to add the georeferenced image to a real GIS program like QGIS] Look up all relevant docs before starting [Claude sometimes uses outdated stuff] Split everything into separate HTML/CSS/JS files [Claude tends to pile everything in index.html, which is hard to read] Use Optima font, base color #FEFAF6 [I just like this style] Let me test with a local server [it serves it on a simple server so you can nav your host to localhost:8000 and try it out] Log all errors [so you don't have to play telephone with the LLM describing what's busted] 3) Once your LLM finishes, test it out in your browser; if it doesn't work, ask the LLM to check logs. Repeat 'til functional. 4) After this works on your computer, you can show it to everyone by hosting it on GitHub: prompt with "write a README explaining what everything does, add it to a new GitHub repo, deploy using GitHub pages, gimme the live URL" Here's what Claude made for me, try it yourself: • Upload the JPG in the repo, which is linked below • "Add GCP" • Click somewhere recognizable on the old map, like the tip of an island or a road intersection • Click the matching point on the new map • Repeat til you have least 3x points • Hit "georeference" • You'll see the old map atop the new map; if you want a better fit, delete bad points or add a dozen new ones, hit georeference again, repeat Repo: Is this map robust? Human-maintainable? Elegant? Performant? Secure? No, but *your* personal web map need not be. It just needs to work for *your* narrow use case, because it’s *your* map.

Holy shit… someone just made machine learning click. Not static diagrams. Not math-heavy PDFs. Not black-box training. Real algorithms — training step-by-step — visually. It’s called Machine Learning Visualized and it lets you watch models learn in real time. Here’s why this is different: Instead of dumping theory first, it shows optimization happening live: • gradients moving • weights updating • decision boundaries shifting • loss decreasing • models converging You literally see learning happen. Everything is built from first principles: • Gradient Descent • Logistic Regression • Perceptron • PCA • K-Means • Neural Networks • Backpropagation No magic. Just math → code → visualization. Each chapter is a Jupyter notebook that derives the math then implements it then animates training. So you can watch: • neural nets shape decision surfaces • PCA rotate feature space • K-means clusters form live • gradient descent find minima • sigmoid reshape boundaries • backprop update weights step-by-step This solves a huge problem: Most ML resources teach: math → code → ??? → trained model This shows: math → code → learning process → result Which means you finally understand: • why gradients matter • how weights evolve • what loss landscapes look like • how convergence actually happens • why deep nets learn non-linear functions Even better: You can open any notebook modify parameters and watch behavior change instantly. Learning ML becomes interactive. Not passive. Not abstract. Not confusing. Just… visible. Perfect for: • beginners learning ML • devs moving into AI • interview prep • teaching concepts • understanding backprop • visual learners • building intuition This is the kind of resource that makes neural networks finally “click”. Link: We’re moving from: reading about ML → watching ML learn That’s a big shift. Because once you can see training, you stop memorizing… and start understanding. AI education just got visual.

Can United States manufacture robots? Matic Robots says "yes." It makes the best floor cleaning robot, that has won many perfect scores from Wired to many others. We love ours. But my trip there to get a tour from AI pioneer Navneet Dalal Navneet Dalal provided some real insights into how hard it is for a hardware company to make hardware in the United States. And how deeply AI is changing consumer electronics products that are going to be in many more homes soon. In this first part (Part II coming tomorrow) we get a look at how long it took for this company to go through prototypes to a shipping product. In the second part, you'll see the scaling hell that it takes to even ship a few thousand robots and the kinds of problems that scaling up a factory brings. Matic is one of my favorite small Silicon Valley companies. It has found what we call "product market fit." I just came back from CES where I saw many of its competitors, and the Matic wins because of not just the product thinking of Mehul and Navneet Dalal but because of their AI leadership. In a way their robot took many lessons from Tesla, from where to put the batteries to its bet on computer vision, which Navneet has been a pioneer in for years, working quietly behind the scenes. It is about to move into a new location that will allow it to grow to meet the demand that now is showing up (the boxes in its lobby show that it's outgrowing its current facilities). In terms of AI, it has aspirations of making a humanoid too, but it is taking a far more measured approach to getting there. By starting on the floor it can not just build world models based on real world data (customers are given a choice whether to allow its data to be used that way. Most customers choose to keep their data on the robot only, for privacy reasons, but if you opt in you can help them improve their models). They are using that data to understand homes. Navneet told me they hit very unusual situations in people's homes already that they couldn't really predict in simulators, like full-wall mirrors that confuse computer vision systems, or pools and water features in people's homes. Having real customers brings a ton of customer feedback about how to further improve the robot, and, as Navneet demonstrates in the second video, forces them to build a manufacturing muscle memory. Getting teams to work together, figuring out how to solve supply chain problems, from Trump's tarriffs, to a new one that showed up over the past couple of weeks. A supplier for its bags (one of the cheaper parts that goes into the robot) changed the glue it used, which caused robots to fail quality tests and the manufacturing line to stop. Reminds me a lot of the hell Elon Musk faced in its Fremont factory when Tesla was first starting to manufacture its Model 3, which almost bankrupted the company. Off the record Mehul and Navneet 🇮🇳 showed me some of the prototypes and plans for its next products that will show up over the next few years. Certainly not as sexy as Tesla, Figure, 1x_tech, and all the Chinese manufacturers are showing off already, but far better thought out for the typical Western home and AI plays a huge role in its future. It is the product that speaks for itself. It's amazing, and is about to get better this year due to AI. It's the first real vision-only robot to be in my home and I bet it won't be the last from this company. Real honor that they invited me over with my Insta360 camera (another company launched in my home, just like Matic was last year). In Part II we go into the factory.
