This is how large language models turn objects to... vector representations. In this video, we explore how large language models (LLMs) convert objects into internal representations, especially when translating between languages like English and Hindi. Using real-world examples, we highlight the challenges of gender inference, grammatical structure, and why direct word-to-word translations often fail. If you're curious about how LLMs deal with multilingual contexts and what it takes to improve translation quality across languages, this video is for you. #LLMs #Vectors #LCMshow more

Robot AI brains, aka Vision-Language-Action models, cannot adapt to... new tasks as easily as LLMs like Gemini, ChatGPT, or Grok. LLMs can adapt quickly with their in-context learning (ICL) capabilities. But can we inject ICL abilities into a pre-trained VLA like pi0? Yes! Introducing RICL (Retraining for In-Context Learning), our Conference on Robot Learning (CoRL) 2025 paper. Our RICL-pi0 model can adapt to unseen objects, novel motions, and new scenes with just ICL and RAG (retrieval-augmented generation). RICL-pi0 also boosts performance on the long-tail of tasks.

3D-LLM: Injecting the 3D World into Large Language Models... paper page: Large language models (LLMs) and Vision-Language Models (VLMs) have been proven to excel at multiple tasks, such as commonsense reasoning. Powerful as these models can be, they are not grounded in the 3D physical world, which involves richer concepts such as spatial relationships, affordances, physics, layout, and so on. In this work, we propose to inject the 3D world into large language models and introduce a whole new family of 3D-LLMs. Specifically, 3D-LLMs can take 3D point clouds and their features as input and perform a diverse set of 3D-related tasks, including captioning, dense captioning, 3D question answering, task decomposition, 3D grounding, 3D-assisted dialog, navigation, and so on. Using three types of prompting mechanisms that we design, we are able to collect over 300k 3D-language data covering these tasks. To efficiently train 3D-LLMs, we first utilize a 3D feature extractor that obtains 3D features from rendered multi- view images. Then, we use 2D VLMs as our backbones to train our 3D-LLMs. By introducing a 3D localization mechanism, 3D-LLMs can better capture 3D spatial information. Experiments on ScanQA show that our model outperforms state-of-the-art baselines by a large margin (e.g., the BLEU-1 score surpasses state-of-the-art score by 9%). Furthermore, experiments on our held-in datasets for 3D captioning, task composition, and 3D-assisted dialogue show that our model outperforms 2D VLMs. Qualitative examples also show that our model could perform more tasks beyond the scope of existing LLMs and VLMs.show more
