    I would have thought partnering with a hotel chain or office cleaning company would get a lot of this data faster, but those probably require a lot more paperwork and legal issues.

    i dont know a lot of private citizens that are beholden to OSHA.

    people do incredibly not recommended things that no bot should train on.

    myself i like to open the knife drawer [yes i have a drawer not a slot in a drawer] and wash, dry, and toss the knife across the kitchen into the drawer.

    additionally bathroom chemists, mixing whatever superstitious combination of products together, to create a bucket of "smells viscious but wow does it ever make things clean" are not a good addition to training.

    > Other startups are focused on trying to scale data collection. Silicon Valley-based Human Archive, for example, hopes to partner with companies like Pronto and have gig workers record their activities using not-so-stylish camera caps.

    Nothing like training your replacement. I wonder who's going to buy all of these robots when the robots have taken over all the jobs.
