# Embodied Robotics Will Decide Between Vector and Pixel AI by Alexander Wissner-Gross > "Anthropic is playing the vector-graphics game, where everything is a command, while OpenAI is playing the raster or pixel-basis game. These strategies are on a collision course in robotics because embodied AI in the physical world will reveal whether the vector basis or the pixel-raster basis is the right one." > **— Alexander Wissner-Gross**, *MOONSHOTS Live, September 25, 2026* ## Sources and Context - **Recording or publication:** [MOONSHOTS Live at 37:30](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cbk7hdOwJj4&t=2250s) — The poster preserves the complete source object used in the research dossier; square brackets or ellipses, when present, are visible editorial repairs inherited from the reconciled source record. - **Reconciled source dossier:** [[research/Jensen Pushes Back on Doomers Moonshots Live|Jensen Pushes Back on Doomers Moonshots Live]] — preserves transcript order, speaker attribution, editorial conventions, and the surrounding argument from which this Reminder was promoted. ## Related Articles and Collections - **Collection:** [[collections/Machine Succession|Machine Succession]] - **Collection:** [[collections/Simple Reminders|Simple Reminders]] - **Article:** [[articles/Vertically Integrating an AI Superpower from AI Factory to Citizen|Vertically Integrating an AI Superpower]] - **Article:** [[articles/The Immediate AI Risk Is the Public|The Immediate AI Risk Is the Public]] ## Related Topics - [[wiki/Alexander Wissner-Gross|Alexander Wissner-Gross]] - [[wiki/Generalist Robotics|Generalist Robotics]] - [[wiki/Robotics|Robotics]] ## Share on Social Media ``` "Anthropic is playing the vector-graphics game, where everything is a command, while OpenAI is playing the raster or pixel-basis game.
