Raw LLM Responses

Fellow IA engineer checking in. I generally agree with your comment however I think your 3rd paragraph downplays how far away we are from that $5999 system. Hardware costs alone will prohibit something like that from happening in any reasonable timeline and IMO price will continue to be the barrier for most applications where automation is appropriate and possible. I'm working on an application that requires vision and a moderately priced line scanner will come in around $10k on its own. No programming. The job itself was around $100k and this is about as easy of a task to automate as imaginable. We have very, very far to go before the price point comes anywhere near that low
