Robotics keeps hitting the same wall. Single task RL works, but... it does not scale to hundreds of tasks or new embodiments. This new paper looks like a real step toward fixing that. The team introduces MMBench, a benchmark with 200 tasks across many domains and robots, and Newt, a language conditioned world model trained online across all 200 tasks at once. The simple idea behind Newt: The model learns from demos to get the right priors It trains across many tasks through online interaction It uses language to ground the goal It adapts fast when a new task shows up What stood out to me: ✅ One model trained on 200 tasks at the same time ✅ Language conditioned control for both states and RGB ✅ Better data efficiency than strong baselines ✅ Strong open loop control ✅ Fast adaptation to new tasks and embodiments ✅ Full release of 200 checkpoints, 4000 demos, code, and benchmark This is a good push toward general control instead of one model per task.

Robot Utility Models (RUMs) enable basic tasks – door opening, drawer opening, object reorientation, etc. – at ~90% accuracy without ANY finetuning (i.e. zero-shot) in unseen new environments. Fully open source!!! models, data, code & hw. We think this is super exciting, why?👇 1. Unlocks many practical home utility tasks that often involve these basic tasks as part of an action chain. “Go get me a fork” involves opening the kitchen door and then opening the cutlery drawer. 2. This works well **zero-shot in unseen and new** environments, which is practically a huge deal. Turn the robot on, and get going. 3. The recipe for building a new model is fairly generic, and we think with a bit more refinement this can be a general recipe to build many more Utility models. More details and access 👇

30 minutes of video. Robot learns the task. Open-source, end-to-end. An open-source framework for training robot policies from only 30 minutes of human egocentric videos captured via Meta Aria glasses: Achieving zero-shot transfer to robots without any robot data collection. The method relies on Interaction-Centric Tokens that encode hand-object spatial relationships invariant to embodiment and viewpoint, supplemented by auxiliary objectives like object motion prediction and latent consistency to extract richer supervision signals from the same data. HumanEgo demonstrates strong cross-embodiment, cross-environment performance on bimanual tasks, outperforming baselines like ACT and teleop data while being trainable on a single RTX 4090 GPU.

Trained on zero real-world data. Learned to walk, pick up boxes, and follow multi-step instructions... in the REAL world. ( 📌 Paper below) Researchers from Amazon FAR, Berkeley, Stanford, and CMU scanned real rooms with an iPhone, rebuilt them as 3D Gaussian Splatting scenes, then generated 48,000 synthetic trajectories of a Unitree G1 walking, grasping, and placing objects inside those virtual replicas. They rendered the robot's first-person camera view from each run and paired it with the matching language instruction and motion data. That's the dataset every humanoid team needs and nobody has: synced egocentric video + language + kinematics, at scale. Instead of collecting it in the real world, they manufactured it. They trained a vision-language-kinematics policy on that synthetic data alone, then deployed it on the physical G1 across five task types: navigation to a named object, lifting boxes of three different sizes with no per-size tuning, chained multi-step tasks, robustness to mid-task layout changes and flickering lights, and multi-minute long-horizon runs. No real-world fine-tuning at any point. Real-world interaction data has been the hard limit on humanoid learning... slow, expensive, and small. If scanning a room once and synthesizing thousands of labeled interactions holds up as a general recipe, that limit moves. Data stops being the bottleneck robotics teams have to solve for. 📌 Paper: Project: ——- Weekly robotics and AI insights. Subscribe free:

Introducing VL-JEPA: Vision-Language Joint Embedding Predictive Architecture for streaming, live action recognition, retrieval, VQA, and classification tasks with better performance and higher efficiency than large VLMs. • VL-JEPA is the first non-generative model that can perform general-domain vision-language tasks in real-time, built on a joint embedding predictive architecture. • We demonstrate in controlled experiments that VL-JEPA, trained with latent space embedding prediction, outperforms VLMs that rely on data space token prediction. • We show that VL-JEPA delivers significant efficiency gains over VLMs for online video streaming applications, thanks to its non-autoregressive design and native support for selective decoding. • We highlight that our VL-JEPA model, with an unified model architecture, can effectively handle a wide range of classification, retrieval, and VQA tasks at the same time. by Delong Chen (陈德龙) Mustafa Shukor Théo Moutakanni Willy Jade Lei Yu Tejaswi Kasarla Allen Bolourchi Yann LeCun Pascale Fung

THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING it's not another robot model. it's not another polished demo. it's the infrastructure nobody had built. LLMs scaled because they had the entire internet to train on. massive evaluation. RL at scale. robotics never had either. midcentury just came out of stealth with $15M to solve exactly that. they built the world's largest egocentric dataset. recorded from the human point of view. 3D hand pose supervision, depth and tactile information. → 2M+ hours of real-world data → 50+ environments → 20,000+ tasks → hands visible in 90% of frames and Matrix cloud-scale simulation where policies run across thousands of closed-loop scenarios in parallel. failures don't break hardware, they become training. nobody debugs a policy on an expensive robot. nobody generalizes from one clean room. → team from Stanford AI Lab, Scale AI, DeepMind, NVIDIA, OpenAI → already working with frontier labs demos were the easy part. this is what comes next.

If you’ve been ignoring Axis Robotics because it looks like another random points farm, read this. In the last 48 hours, Unitree said robotics is approaching its "ChatGPT moment", while the chairman of ACE Robotics believes it could happen by the end of 2027. But for robots to reach that level, they need a crazy amount of training data. That’s exactly what Axis is building. You control simulated robots directly from your browser, complete simple tasks and earn points. Those movements also help create data that can be used to train real robots. And this isn’t some tiny experiment anymore: - $12M raised - 123K+ contributors - 3M+ robot trajectories - Community data already used to train a real robot So yeah, we’re basically farming a potential airdrop while teaching our future robot servants how to work 😂 If you haven’t started yet, it’s completely free. You only need a tiny amount of gas on Base to sign your completed tasks. ✅ Start farming Axis points: Important: Sign every completed task from the History page, otherwise you won’t receive the points.

Sharpa Robotics Sharpa observed that teleoperating a dual hand robot offering a combined 63 DoF is a nightmare, even for an experienced operator. They offer a two fold solution: - a VLA that handles "in hand rotation" (like the apple in video below), that the operator can trigger using a foot pedal. - a Mixture-of-Dexterous-Experts that fuses tactile sensing data. Interestingly enough, the first model handles the apple peeling end-to-end, tactile data does not help here. However, it greatly enhances the insertion and grasping of the apple. This research makes use of the SharpaWave 22-DoF dexterous hand, with force and tactile feedback on all ten fingertips. I find it interesting that is now possible to delegate complex low-level finger coordination tasks to RL-trained atomic skills. Optimizing such steps that are difficult to reproduce in teleoperation significantly helps overcoming the data acquisition bottleneck.

In our new work, we study whether robots can improve after deployment by learning from their own failures, without any human intervention, teleoperation, or corrective labels. The key idea is simple: human videos contain structure about how the world works. We use them to learn cross-embodiment representations of action, dynamics, and value, enabling a shared predictive space between human behavior and robot experience. This allows a new learning loop: 👉 pretrain on human videos 👉 deploy robot policy 👉 observe failures 👉 reinterpret failures using human priors 👉 improve autonomously We evaluate this across 7 real-world manipulation tasks, showing: 📈 40% → 81% success rate 🏆 Strong improvements over π0.6 RECAP and RISE ✔️ Zero human intervention during post-deployment improvement 🧬 Generalizes across robot embodiments and policy backbones A key finding is that explicit failure repair significantly outperforms failure reweighting, yielding substantially larger gains under identical data conditions (+25 pts vs +5 pts on the same π0.5 base policy).

[Most robots react. This one thinks a step ahead.] Ant Group's Robbyant just published LingBot-VA 2.0 — a video-action foundation model built from scratch for robot control, not fine-tuned from a video generator. The usual approach takes a video generator made for content creation and bolts a robot policy onto it. LingBot-VA 2.0 argues that's the wrong starting point, and pretrains the whole causal stack natively instead. What stands out: → Foresight Reasoning — the robot predicts the next action chunk while executing the current one, then overwrites the imagined frame with the real observation. Prediction and execution stop waiting on each other. → 927 ms → 142 ms per chunk, across four cumulative optimizations. That lifts asynchronous control from 35 Hz to 225 Hz — a 6.5× speedup. → One shared latent space. A semantic visual-action tokenizer puts world states and actions in the same coordinates, so unlabeled web video carries action-relevant signal. → Sparse MoE video stream — 128 experts, top-8 routing. Roughly 2.5B of ~15.3B parameters fire per token. → Few-shot by design — adapts from 10–15 demonstrations, and a human demo video can replace the text instruction entirely. Full breakdown: Paper: Project Page: Robbyant Ant Group

Yes they did. Btw here is what a .30-06 does do a resin skull encased in ballistic gel. Charlie Kirk was murdered by professional hitmen and the FBI blamed a patsy. Candace please discuss some of these inconsistencies. Amateur Shooter Skill Discrepancy: Official narrative claims Tyler Robinson, with no professional training, executed a precise 142-yard neck shot using a vintage Mauser 98 rifle. Ballistics data shows a miniscule success rate for novices. He had zero practice records or ammo traces. single-shot perfection is impossible without expert help. Invisible Rooftop Presence and Firing: No eyewitnesses saw Robinson climbing, positioning, or shooting despite ~3,000 attendees and visible rooftop in daylight. Witness statements point to conflicting shot directions. The probability of zero sightings 2 minutes Video shows fleeing figure, but actions exceed feasible time for amateur. Post-Escape Behavior: Calm demeanor post-shot he was at Dairy Queen posting Discord memes. Only arrested after dad's tip-off. His "Confession" text to vanished lover, unreleased geo-tracking data, amateur would show panic, not casual behavior. Audio Discrepancy across Multiple Sources: Videos show varying shot sounds (immediate crack in close views, delays/echoes in others). Physics predicts consistent crack-bang from a single rooftop. Variations imply closer/suppressed weapon or multiple shooters. Trajectory and Wound Mismatches: Blood spray arcs forward/left, not downward from elevated shot. No exit despite high velocity. Some Witnesses report "two shots." Evidence Tampering and Scene Handling: Stage/cameras dismantled ~5-10 mins post-shot. FBI delayed ~16 mins and no autopsy released. Videos show staff yanking SD cards, there are gag orders on witnesses and the scene was trampled by people who were supposed to be professionals. Pre-Event Foreknowledge Indicators: Google searches for "Tyler Robinson" spiked pre-shot. Hand signals in videos, scrubbed CIA-linked professors. Suggests coordination/setup.

Human3R: Everyone Everywhere All at Once Note: I recorded the video from the interactive demo on their project page (linked in the comment below). Abstract (excerpt): Human3R jointly recovers global multi-person SMPL-X bodies ("everyone"), dense 3D scenes ("everywhere"), and camera trajectories in a single forward pass ("all-at-once"). Our method builds upon the 4D online reconstruction model CUT3R and uses parameter-efficient visual prompt tuning to preserve CUT3R's rich spatiotemporal priors while enabling direct readout of multiple SMPL-X bodies. Human3R is a unified model that eliminates heavy dependencies and iterative refinement. After being trained on the relatively small-scale synthetic dataset BEDLAM for just one day on one GPU, it achieves superior performance with remarkable efficiency: it reconstructs multiple humans in a one-shot manner, along with 3D scenes, in one stage, at real-time speed (15 FPS) with a low memory footprint (8 GB).

Furniture assembly is the task everyone name-drops and nobody actually attempts at real scale. Every demo I have seen is a scaled down IKEA leg or a single arm on a toy chair. This paper does it properly, real scale, bimanual, up to 7 subtasks and 1,550 control steps per episode, and it is validated on a real Kinova Gen3, not just in sim. That real-robot number is the one that matters: only a 16 percent drop on the hardest task going from simulation to hardware. That is a small enough gap to take seriously, and it did not happen by accident. They built a VR teleoperation rig specifically for coordinated dual-arm collection, because generic single-arm teleop setups do not capture the coordination real assembly needs, and the model predicts a continuous progress signal alongside the action chunk rather than a discrete subtask label, letting it auto-transition and catch drift before it compounds into total failure. The simulation ablation is what got them there, 48 to 80 percent over baselines, with another 21 points from their perception and control design study alone, but that is groundwork, not the headline. Watch the video, there is a clip of the robot misgrasping the seat panel, reopening the gripper, and regrasping on its own. That is not scripted recovery behaviour, it emerged from training, and it emerged on hardware. Excellent work from the team from Mitsubishi Electric Research Laboratories, with Oxford and UNC Chapel Hill Clinical Laboratory Science. Video and project page in comments. #Robotics #Manipulation #VLA

🛠️ What if a robot could invent its own tools. And teach itself how to use them? That’s exactly what VLMgineer does: a new framework that lets Vision Language Models (VLMs) design physical tools and the actions to use them, entirely on their own. No templates. No human demonstrations. Just raw, AI-driven creativity. Why it matters ✅ Co-designs tools and actions together using VLMs, ensuring tight coupling between form and function ✅ Uses VLM-guided evolution (not random search) to refine designs intelligently ✅ Outperforms human-designed tools by +64.7% in task success across 12 RoboToolBench challenges ✅ Produces better-than-everyday tools for real manipulation tasks—measured in success rate and elegance It builds on the emerging trend of large-model-guided evolutionary design (like Eureka and AlphaEvolve) and brings it into physical robotics. It opens the door to general-purpose, automated hardware design, no strong priors needed. Code & paper: —- Weekly robotics and AI insights. Subscribe free:

Wonderland: Navigating 3D Scenes from a Single Image Contributions: • First, we introduce a representation for controllable 3D generation by leveraging the generative priors from camera-guided video diffusion models. Unlike image models, video diffusion models are trained on extensive video datasets. This enables them to capture comprehensive spatial relationships within scenes across multiple views and embed a form of "3D awareness" in their latent space, which allows us to maintain 3D consistency in novel view synthesis. • Second, to achieve controllable novel view generation, we empower video models with precise control over specified camera motions. We introduce a novel dual-branch conditioning mechanism that effectively incorporates desired diverse camera trajectories into the video diffusion model. This enables expansion of a single image into a multi-view consistent capture of a 3D scene with precise pose control. • Third, to achieve efficient 3D reconstruction, we directly transform video latents into 3DGS. We propose a novel latent-based large reconstruction model (LaLRM) that lifts video latents to 3D in a feed-forward manner. With this design, during inference, our model directly predicts 3DGS from a single input image, effectively aligning the generation and reconstruction tasks—and bridging image space and 3D space—through the video latent space. Compared with reconstructing scenes from images, the video latent space offers a 256× spatial-temporal reduction while retaining essential and consistent 3D structural details. Such a high degree of compression is crucial, as it allows the LaLRM to handle a wider range of 3D scenes within the reconstruction framework, with the same memory constraints.
