How do we run RL with real-time chunking (RTC)? In this work we figured out how to use a small RL policy with a large robot foundation model, where the RL policy observed more recent images (due to faster inference) and steers the policy toward better behaviors! A fun collaboration with Siemens, led by Brian Zhu, Momen Khalil, Emanuele Poggi from Siemens and E Harrison from Berkeley, with lots of amazing contributors!

Flow reversal steering allows "steering" diffusion-based VLAs with high-level actions, for example from VLM reasoning. This also lets us run RL in the diffusion noise space with exploration guided by high-level reasoning: think through a task, then practice it! 👇

If you have a policy that uses diffusion/flow (e.g. diffusion VLA), you can run RL where the actor chooses the noise, which is then denoised by the policy to produce an action. This method, which we call diffusion steering (DSRL), leads to a remarkably efficient RL method! 🧵👇

We finished evaluating π0.7, our new model at Physical Intelligence. What I'm most excited about with π0.7 is that it's starting to show some surprising emergent compositional generalization, being able to both perform complex tasks and learn new tasks just from instructions.

A while back Benjie Holson described a set of "Robot Olympics" challenge tasks -- washing a pan, making a peanut butter sandwich, and more. We tried to fine-tune our models at PI to these tasks, and found that we could do most of them. A few highlights below.

We can learn a model that provides shaped "process rewards" for robotic RL, that evolves automatically as the policy gets better. This improves performance on benchmarks, and works in the real world! Some fun new work with Raymond Tsao & Andrew Wagenmaker

If you want a robot to do something well, you need to know how to talk to it. If you don't, you can learn, with Semantic Action RL! In our paper, Jagdeep Bhatia, Andrew Wagenmaker, Will Chen show how RL over VLA prompts enables new tasks and learns blazing fast in the real world!

Really excited to share what I've been working on with my colleagues at Physical Intelligence! We've developed a prototype robotic foundation model that can fold laundry, assemble a box, bus a table, and many other things. We've written a paper and blog post about it. 🧵👇

One of my favorite results for π*0.6 is this video: 13 hours of making lattes, Americanos, and espresso for folks at our office in San Francisco.

Real-time inference is a big challenge for VLAs. We’ve been working on a way to amortize inference delays in π0.5. Our new Real-Time Chunking (RTC) method speeds up π0.5 by allowing the robot to “think” while it’s moving, which makes it quite a bit faster! 🧵👇

Diffusion models make great images. But can they drive robots? Usually that gets complicated really fast. We figured out how to get a Stable Diffusion model (based on Instruct pix2pix) to drive robotic instruction following. Simple recipe, works on a wide range of tasks. Thread👇

Very happy to announce that we are open-sourcing the π₀ model, weights, and some fine-tuned checkpoints! Hoping this leads to lots of great follow-up research: Here is a fun test from our friends at UPenn.

Watch this robot dog learn to walk from scratch in real time! Our new method, APRL, dynamically adjusts exploration constraints to enable fast and performant RL directly in the real world. APRL can also adapt to changes in the terrain. No simulation, no demos. A thread 👇

At Physical Intelligence, we teamed up with Weave Robotics and Ultra to stress-test our models in real-world deployments. This was a really fun collaboration that saw our latest pi06 model running in production at Sea Breeze Cleaners and a real warehouse! More below.

Self-supervised representation learning looks a bit like RL. What if we literally use RL as a SSL method for visual representations? Turns out that it works quite well. In new work by Dibya Ghosh, we show how this can be done:

Language following is a tough problem for VLAs: while these models can follow complex language, in practice getting datasets that enable language following is hard. We developed a method to counterfactually and automatically label data to improve language following! 🧵👇

Benjie posted a reply to the Physical Intelligence "Olympics" attempt: Some nice discussion about what makes a task hard, how current learning methods should change how people think about robotic capability, and some interesting commentary.

Scaling laws in deep RL? Turns out that batch size, learning rate, and UTD (update-to-data) for getting the most efficient and scalable deep RL has predictable relationships. Checkout the analysis in new work by Oleg Rybkin & collaborators:
