This is my attempt at trying to explain this concept for a 5 year old.

I want a robot to make me pancakes.

But my robot doesn’t know how to use a mixer or the stove.

So I need to teach it how.

So I’ll tell it what a mixer is, and how to use it to make waffles.

And I’ll explain what a stove is and how it works.

And to be careful, it’s hot!

At some point I’ll introduce the robot to how to use the mixer for different things, like making icing, or whipped cream.

In the end, the robot will be a highly intelligent baking assistant that knows how to use a range of tools and decide which to use to achieve the best outcome.
