🚀Thrilled to share what we’ve been building at TRI... over the past several months: our first Large Behavior Models (LBMs) are here! I’m proud to have been a core contributor to the multi-task policy learning and post-training efforts. At TRI, we’ve been researching how LBMs can help robots learn faster, better, and more efficiently. The key takeaways: ✅ We built an evaluation pipeline to benchmark LBM performance with real 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 ✅ Pre-training on hundreds of tasks makes models more robust—plus, we can teach new, complex tasks with 80% 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚 ✅ The bigger and more diverse the pre-training, the better the results Check out our overview video, webpage and paper for more details: ✨ 🌎 📄 We hope this work helps move the field of robotics forward!show more

Good exchange with Kristalina Georgieva on Europe’s competitiveness. A... strong starting point for today’s discussions at our College seminar.

This work will continue with EU leaders on 12 February. The urgency is clear to us all.show more

One of the happiest moments of my life occurred... last night. The whole family was outside helping to pull garlic - softneck variety - first year we’ve ever planted one and it’s quite a bit more difficult to harvest than hardnecks. Everyone needs to head inside to bed, I’ve already accepted that I’ll be out and might see sunrise - I didn’t, but it could’ve been close. My son - despite being offered to go inside just persisted that he wanted to stay and work with me. He crushed it - helped me pull garlic, loaded the bucket of the tractor, directed me to stop, move forward, etc. My son really brought value via work effort and productivity. But more than that, he chose to stay with me and wanted to work. It was a quiet happiness and one I hope exists for the rest of our lives wherever he may go and however we may work together.show more

Meta and Unity are continuing to work together to... make Quest development more efficient and easier to iterate on from first setup, to input, to performance, to validation.

Catching up on the CES 2026 updates from Insta360,... and the new Link 2 Pro and Link 2C Pro feel very aligned with how creators and professionals actually work today. What stood out to me is the focus on control without complexity. From cleaner image quality (even in low light) to smart tracking and auto-framing that doesn’t feel distracting, these webcams seem built for real-world hybrid setups. The Elgato Stream Deck integration, as highlighted by Louis Peeters at CES, is a nice touch too, being able to control camera modes and framing with a single tap makes a real difference during live sessions. Overall, it’s less about flashy features and more about making on camera work smoother and more intentional. Looking forward to seeing these in action when they roll out later this month. #CES2026 #Insta360 #CreatorTools #HybridWork #LiveStreamingshow more
