Quick ask — I’ve got an interview today for a strategy role at a physical-AI company (computer vision + robotics for industrial use) and I’m trying to sharpen my mental model of the space beyond what’s on company websites. If you’ve actually built or deployed this stuff, would love your honest take on a few things: Where do margins really live — hardware, recurring software, or servicing? What breaks first as deployments scale — tech, ops, or commercial? How much does each site need bespoke engineering vs. being truly productized? Does the real value eventually shift from selling machines to owning the data/network layer? Happy to take 15 minutes on a call, voice notes, or even a couple of DM replies — whatever’s easiest. Not selling, not recruiting, just trying to learn fast. DM me if you’re up for it. Thanks a lot. submitted by /u/Greedy-Towel
