This morning I am finishing teaching Dr. John MacArthur’s... Doctor of Ministry students. One of the students forwarded this short video to me of the California fires raging several miles away from us. Please pray for the mourning relatives of those who have died in the fires, for the many hundreds who have lost their homes and possessions, for the firefighters that they may be able to make progress in containing the fires, and that God would bring gospel fruits of faith and repentance through this huge trial to many people. Pray, too, for Dr. MacArthur (and his wife Patricia) that he would gain strength in the hospital and be wonderfully healed by God doing valiantly for him, enabling him to return home and eventually to his pulpit as well. And, please thank the Lord that the winds have mostly died down here in Los Angeles, and pray for us that we would be able fly home safely later today despite all the backlogs in travel.show more

What a way to end the season! Would like... to thank all the players for making my time at argyle a memory I will also treasure…… also massive shout out to all the staff for their amazing support, myself and family are very grateful. To the fans thank you for showing me amazing support and given me a huge amount of backing, I have grown and learnt as a player the past 5 months and argyle have a massive part of that. Really grateful to have been able to be apart of this team and I wish you all the best for the future 💚💚💚show more

Tomorrow is the first of a huge month for... me, not just locktober, but spooky season, the Femdom ball, my birthday, hosting my first Femdom event, graduating with a bachelors degree, and I’ve been nominated for Best Dominatrix at the UK Fetish Awards 🇬🇧 Kink and BDSM mean the world to me; it’s more than a lifestyle, it’s my everything. It’s an honour just to be nominated, and it would mean the world to me if this month my supporters, fans and friends could vote for me in this category 🖤 voting can be completed once a day per category, and I’ll leave my recommendations for the other fantastic people in fantastic categories in the comments!show more

Something big is happening in robotics - and it’s... hiding in plain sight. This post is not about dancing robots but in the data that powers them. Open robotics datasets have exploded this year, turning the field into a more scalable and collaborative ecosystem. In just two years, Hugging Face datasets grew from 11k to over 600k - and robotics is by far the fastest-growing segment. We went from 1k robotics datasets in 2024 to 27k in 2025! For comparison, text generation, the second-largest category, has only around 5k datasets in 2025. That gap is massive. Open datasets are important because robotics lives and dies by real-world robot data - video, actions, sensors, failures. By making this data easy to upload, reuse, and benchmark, researchers, startups, and large players are now releasing real-robot datasets that would have stayed locked inside labs just a few years ago. Major contributors include NVIDIA, LeRobot initiative, and a rapidly growing maker community. This surge is also enabled by cheaper video storage, better tooling, and an open-source AI culture now spilling into the physical world. And it really matters: open robotics data dramatically lowers entry barriers, accelerates learning-by-doing, and speeds up progress toward generalist and humanoid robots. Robotics won’t scale through hardware alone - but to a large extent through shared data. Viz below from AI World - link to the story and more viz/filters in comment.show more

My robotaxi arrives to take me to coffee this... morning, pulling into a back gravel lot. This was ride number 10 and all have been flawless. To the amazing Tesla AI team who made this possible, you are true heroes. Thank you for helping make the world a better, safer place. All those late nights and stressful days are worth it when you change the world. And of course a huge shout out to Elon Musk for having the vision and tenacity to make this all possible. I’m only sad I have to fly back home today so ride number 11 will be a while. Ashok Elluswamy Tesla Robotaxishow more

Mondo is the most adorable companion robot. It’s safe... around kids, can track and follow a person, and capture high-resolution action videos. Mondo is also doing frontier research in humanoid Video-Action models built on a world model backbone: I have no doubt we’ll be hearing this name a lot in consumer robotics. Thanks Mondo Robotics Shuo Yang for the tour.show more

Google DeepMind is absolutely on fire 🔥 they have... just launched Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5 their first broadly available robotics AI model designed to act as the "high-level reasoning brain" for robots. This is Google's first Gemini Robotics model made available to all developers. - Available in preview through Google AI Studio and Gemini API. - First thinking model for robots interacting with the physical world. Handles complex commands and orchestrates sophisticated robotic behaviors. - Key capabilities: Advanced spatial reasoning, multi-step task planning, Google Search integration, precise 2D pointing, object reasoning, and video analysis. - Flexible thinking budget lets developers tune speed vs accuracy. Can think longer for complex tasks or respond quickly for reactive operations. - Enhanced safety filters refuse dangerous tasks and recognize physical limits.show more

Robora Sim: A PyBullet-Powered Environment for Learning Robotic Physical... Intelligence We are currently building our Robora simulation environment setup for our sim based learning, leveraging PyBullet, an industry-standard physics engine widely used in AI-driven robotics research and development. The environment is optimized with GPU-accelerated learning algorithms, enabling high-speed imitation learning and reinforcement learning within a safe and controlled virtual setup before shipping out to real world. This simulation platform allows our models to learn, adapt, and generalize across different robot morphologies, terrain types and task objectives - all before deployment to the real world. At it's core, the system combines a VLA-powered high-level planner with low-level motion control algorithms, working cohesively to produce emergent, physically intelligent behaviors. This synergy between simulation, learning, and real-world transfer marks a major step forward in our pursuit of adaptive and intelligent robotic systems. Through advanced domain randomization and synthetic data generation, the Robora Simulation Environment ensures that policies trained in simulation transfer effectively to real-world robots, minimizing the sim-to-real gap. Moreover, users will be able to test and integrate their own hardware kits within selected simulation environments in the Robora Dapp, ensuring seamless compatibility and safer real-world implementation.show more
