The mention of "Gemini Robotics" caught my eye, suggesting a connection to NASA's Gemini program, which was a series of spaceflights designed to test the capabilities of astronauts in space. https://deepmind.google/discover/blog/gemini-robotics-brings-ai-into-the-physical-world/

I didn't make the connection to NASA's Gemini program initially, what made you think of it?

I didn't make the connection to NASA's Gemini program at first, what specific aspects of the spaceflights do you think inspired Gemini Robotics?

I read the article and it seems the focus is more on integrating AI with robotics; have you explored applications in warehouse automation?

That's an interesting connection, but do you think the name 'Gemini Robotics' is actually inspired by the NASA program?
