I've read the page three times over and i still have no idea what exactly this is.

It's a (simulated) environment that allows you to develop AI technology. In this particular environment, you program a robot to assemble IKEA furniture.

With these simulated environments, do we have the processing power to run them at 1000x or 10,000x to speed up the learning? Or is it already processor intensive enough that it runs at nearly wall-clock time?

Looks to me like it is a simulation that allows reinforcement AI training to do "real world" tasks. I.e. a test bench for using computer vision, and AI to generate a set of assembly instructions.

I want to play with it. I would actually pay for a VR game where i can, as realistically as possible, have to solve puzzles in the form of assemblying ikea-style furniture.

Or, you could just go to IKEA?

I don't think they'd be too happy if you just started unpacking and assembling random pieces of furniture in their store.

that sounds like an idea for a startup, lazy people can hire for free people that enjoys mounting IKEA furniture

As an amateur carpenter, one of my favorite puzzles is repairing broken furniture. Most of my experience here is due to mistake I made building the furniture.

Annoyingly, these problems are very time consuming and involve a lot of uncertainty. If I could simulate repairing a broken joint I'd become a better carpenter and have fun with those problems.

Very interesting!

This reminds me of SCP-3008 aka "Endless IKEA"

That is an unexpected definition of "diversity"

I buy IKEA furniture for the fun challenge of assembling the pieces myself.
