Memo is a robot that uses AI to perform... household tasks effectively. Today Sunday announced its Series B, and we’re proud to be investors. Training robots for the home is hard — the environment is messy, dynamic, and full of edge cases. So Sunday is training robots directly on real households. Founders Tony Zhao and Cheng Chi built a glove-based system that lets hundreds of contributors record everyday tasks in their own homes, creating high-fidelity demonstrations that feed directly into robot learning. Home robotics will be defined by the companies that learn fastest from real homes. Sunday is building that loop. More here: Aaref Hilaly Amanda Huangshow more

Creating a "unified" policy for a robot is uniquely... challenging for two reasons: (a) data is scarce; (b) a single robot can only act sequentially. In PolyTask, we learn a single policy to solve many tasks in a lifelong fashion given *just 1 demonstration* for each task. 🧵show more

We're now rolling out interactive images to the Google... Gemini for more visual and dynamic learning. It’s designed to help you visually explore complex academic concepts, turning studying from passive viewing into active exploration. Learn more →show more
