For me a big open question is what sort of progress will we see in robotics. I won't even attempt to speculate, but it does seem hard in different ways than proving math theorems.

In a lot of ways, robotics - navigating and operating in the physical world - seems to be a very verifiable problem. It's fairly easy to verify that a robot moved from A to B, or that it built a structure that completely aligns with the plan, for example.

The main issue is cost and speed to verify, but simulations and world models will help there. I think we'll start seeing rapid progress pretty soon.
