Nvidia’s Les Karpas to discuss robotics’ ‘ChatGPT moment’ at TechCrunch Disrupt 2026

At TechCrunch Disrupt 2026 (Oct 13–15, Moscone West), Nvidia Inception’s Global Head of Physical AI Les Karpas will present a session arguing robotics has yet to see a ChatGPT-style breakthrough largely because the field lacks internet-scale physical datasets. Karpas will join founders from Shield AI, Colossal Biosciences, FieldAI and Foxglove to discuss simulation, synthetic data and foundation models as ways to bridge the digital-physical gap.
