# Niche - Data Scarcity for training AGI for robots

**Many tasks that are easy for humans are hard for robots.** Despite advancements in robotics, there’s still a significant gap before AGI robots are ready for mass adoption. Below are examples of robots struggling to perform simple tasks. Click on them to watch the videos.

The trillion-dollar question is: **what’s holding us back from achieving AGI robots?** The bottleneck lies in **Data Scarcity**—there simply isn’t enough high-quality training data to develop robust AGI robots.&#x20;
