AI is moving from “know” to “do”: Why Physical AI is becoming a systems challengeedit
Artificial intelligence is entering a new phase that extends beyond digital productivity into the physical world. For years, AI has been defined by systems that understand, generate and recommend information; large language models and copilots have transformed knowledge work. The next wave will be different. AI is increasingly expected not just to understand the world, but to interact with it: robots working alongside people on factory floors, autonomous systems perceiving their surroundings, and intelligent machines monitoring processes and acting in real time.
