If you wanted finger-positioning data for how millions of different people fold thousands of different shirts, where would you go looking for that dataset?

My point is just that the availability of training data is vastly different between these cases. If we want better AI we're probably going to have to generate some huge curated datasets for mundane things that we've never considered worth capturing before.

It's an unfortunate quirk of what we decide to share with each other that has positioned AI to do art and not laundry.
