I'd be curious about YC's thoughts on founders breaking into manufacturing/robotics from a normal SWE background

I imagine you need someone who's technical in the hardware/robotics space. There's also the route of doing a masters perhaps, or working at a robotics startup before you start your own company. I am curious about YC's thoughts here as well as someone who's enthusiastic about this space. I feel this is the next trillion dollar industry.

One of the interesting potential futures is one in which every software engineer can build awesome robotics systems.

What really unlocked ML was when you didn't need to have a deep academic background in ML to be able to use it. Now that the primitives exist, every software engineer can build a compelling ML app.

I'm not sure if robotics is there yet, but if not it probably will be.
