I’m curious what the largest bottleneck in robotics AI is - algorithms, training data, hardware, something else?

From a practical point of view, it seems like there would be vastly less training data available because almost all of it needs to be created by hand, as opposed to chatbots that can use already existing troves of internet text.

Looking at the rapid progress over the last few years, I think the bottleneck is still the cost of hardware. Once robots at the level of Boston Dynamics's Spot or Tesla's new Optimus are available to regular hackers, we'll see another massive surge in progress.

I think the bootlneck is largely software. Robots have been there for a while, yet we don't have a good paradigm to program them. Neural net are certainly here to change that. I agree, massive surge in progress is expected!
