There are robotics transformers and general purpose models like Gato that can control robotics.
If AGI is extremely close, the reason is criticality. All the pieces for an AGI system that has general capabilities including working memory, robotics control, perception, “scratch” mind spaces including some that can model 3d relationships, exist in separate papers.
Normally it would take humans years, likely decade of methodical work building more complex integrated systems, but current AI may be good enough to bootstrap there in a short time, assuming a very large robotics hardware and compute budget.
