Each robot lived in its own room at Google X in Mountain View — Atari with around six humanoids, Aloha with rows of bi-arms (cheap enough to keep many on hand) — and Omega in London. Each room had a research team built around it, but the teams flowed freely between them, lending each other hands. From Google Creative Lab, Alexander Chen was creative director and Suz Chambers led production; Samuel Lawton, Andrew Rhee and Shashwath Santosh worked closely together on directing, filming and planning the demonstrations. We shot for three days at Google X, where I moved between rooms with each robot's team, defining tool calls, writing system instructions and tuning the interface so it would read well on camera.
