"Bring me the healthiest snack." The robot goes to the kitchen and gets the snack, fully autonomously. This is the first public demo of NVIDIA's Isaac GR00T N1.6 foundation model presented by Yuke Zhu at CoRL 2025. The previous versions focused only on bimanual stationary manipulation; the N1.6 unlocks the entire kinematic range of the robot. The latest release of the open Isaac GR00T N1.6 VLA model will be available soon on Hugging Face. It integrates with NVIDIA Cosmos Reason, an open, customizable reasoning vision language model that turns vague instructions into step-by-step plans.

Breaking news: Cosmos 3 is here. They are attempting to do something completely new 🤯 Why is Physical AI much harder than building a chatbot? Understanding the world is not enough, robots need to predict it and act inside it. That's the idea behind NVIDIA Cosmos 3: → Reasoning model understands what's happening from video, images, text, and actions. → World model generates future states of the environment. → Action model generates the actions needed to achieve a goal. Previous systems often stitched these capabilities together using separate models. Cosmos 3 combines them into a single architecture with two components: ▪️ Reasoner Tower Analyzes observations and builds an understanding of objects, motion, interactions, and physical context. ▪️ Generator Tower Uses that understanding to generate future videos and action sequences that obey physical constraints. So Cosmos 3 moves from: Perception → Model A Prediction → Model B Actions → Model C to: Perception + Prediction + Actions → One unified system. The goal is to make robots, autonomous vehicles, and smart environments better at answering three questions: 1. What is happening? 2. What will happen next? 3. What should I do? That's a big shift from today's AI, which mostly focuses on generating text. And check the benchmarks! Physical AI needs to generate decisions that survive contact with the real world. 🚗🤖

Nvidia has just announced Alpamayo 2 Super, an open 34 billion parameter reasoning vision-language-action model designed to accelerate the development of autonomous vehicles. This new model combines the NVIDIA Cosmos 3 Super reasoning model with a 2 billion parameter diffusion-based action expert model, and is post trained with reinforcement learning. The model can return multiple outputs: future trajectory plans, reasoning traces, grounded answers to questions about the scenes, and auto label generation. The model weights are now available for anyone to download on Hugging Face, and the inference code has been posted to GitHub. Distilled models can be deployed commercially without any further permission from Nvidia, and model outputs carry no license conditions. Automakers can distill down a compact version of this model that can run on the Nvidia computer in the car. Major kudos to Nvidia and Jensen Huang for advancing the state of the industry by releasing this as an open model with permissive licensing. Jensen isn't just paying lip service to the idea of open models, Nvidia is actually contributing to the ecosystem — and it's great for their business, because it helps sell more Thor computers that go in the car. Anyone can go download the model and play with it. If you do, let me know what you think. Personally I think it's so cool that we have open weights models that are this advanced, for anyone to download.

This is THE moment of Physical AI! We are officially announcing Cosmos 3: Omnimodal World Models for Physical AI 🚀 - Cosmos 3 is an omnimodal world model: within a unified architecture, it can understand and generate language, images, video, audio, and actions. - It is not just a VLM, not just a video generator, not just an audio-visual generative model, and not just a physics simulator / world-action model. It can understand images and videos, generate images, videos, and audio, simulate future worlds, predict actions, and generate robot policies—enabling models to truly begin to “touch the world.” - Cosmos 3 is the #1 open-weight reasoner / T2I / I2V / robot policy across many benchmarks. Huge thanks to every teammate who fought side by side on this journey—from architecture, data, training, infra, serving, and evaluation to post-training. Every part of this project carries an incredible amount of hard work. This was my first time leading a project as Tech Lead, and I feel truly fortunate. The future of Physical AI needs models that can not only “see” and “describe” the world, but also “imagine,” “simulate,” and “act”—and eventually close the loop with the real world. I hope Cosmos 3 can become an important starting point for this direction, and I’m excited to push Physical AI into its next stage together with the open-source community.

Some time ago, I had the idea to port NVIDIA Physical AI stack to AMD. The motivation was to improve hardware diversity and enable world models and VLAs to run beyond a single ecosystem. We started with NVIDIA Cosmos Predict 2.5-2B. Porting wasn’t trivial: these models are deeply optimized for NVIDIA’s stack. We used this as an opportunity to apply our ROCm kernels. The results were surprising: Both encode and diffusion run faster on AMD Instinct MI300X vs. NVIDIA H200 (FA3) and we still saw significant headroom for further optimization. Quality is unchanged across modalities (validated with WorldJen) To be clear, this is no luck. We have deep experience with diffusion models and AMD GPUs. But this just gives us a good opportunity to get closer to a true hardware-to-hardware comparison, as we work with less software abstractions than usual. Just to give an example, on AMD, memory instructions are async with a hardware queue of ordered pending instructions, enabling concurrent load/store with compute without warp specialization. Bottom line: there are real architectural advantages on AMD, if you take the time to work with the hardware. Note, we did tradeoff ~20% higher memory usage, That being said, AMD has more to give to begin with :) in the coming weeks: AMD versions of Cosmos Transfer and GR00T, an even faster version of Cosmos Predict, and open-sourcing an attention kernel faster than AITER v3 (which is closed-source for some reason? cc: Anush Elangovan )

💥 A 450M model just beat bigger VLAs on real robot tasks, and it’s 100% open source [📍 bookmark for later] Came across SmolVLA, a new vision-language-action model for robotics that’s compact, fast, and trained entirely on open community datasets from LeRobot via Hugging Face. What stood out to me is how it matches or outperforms much larger models like ACT using noisy, real-world community data instead of giant private datasets. Why it’s worth a look ✅ 26% performance boost from pretraining on open-source data ✅ Runs on consumer hardware, even a MacBook ✅ 30% faster responses with async inference and smart architecture tweaks ✅ Strong results across Meta-World, LIBERO, SO100, and SO101 ✅ Fully open source: weights, code, training pipeline, eval stack They also introduced smart efficiency tricks like using fewer visual tokens, pulling outputs from mid-layer, and separating perception from action to make it all run fast. SmolVLA is a strong case for what can happen when the robotics community shares data and builds in the open. Definitely worth keeping an eye on.

Excited to announce GR00T N1, the world’s first open foundation model for humanoid robots! We are on a mission to democratize Physical AI. The power of general robot brain, in the palm of your hand - with only 2B parameters, N1 learns from the most diverse physical action dataset ever compiled and punches above its weight: - Real humanoid teleoperation data. - Large-scale simulation data: we are open-sourcing 300K+ trajectories! - Neural trajectories: we apply SOTA video generation models to “hallucinate” new synthetic data that features accurate physics in pixels. Using Jensen’s words, “systematically infinite data”! - Latent actions: we develop novel algorithms to extract action tokens from in-the-wild human videos and neural generated videos. GR00T N1 is a single end-to-end neural net, from photons to actions: - Vision-Language Model (System 2) that interprets the physical world through vision and language instructions, enabling robots to reason about their environment and instructions, and plan the right actions. - Diffusion Transformer (System 1) that “renders” smooth and precise motor actions at 120 Hz, executing the latent plan made by System 2. We deploy N1 on GR1 robot, 1X Neo robot, and a large collection of simulation benchmarks. N1 achieves up to +30% boost in diverse manipulation tasks for household and industrial settings. While humanoid robots are the main focus of N1, our model also supports cross-embodiment. We finetune it to work on the $110 HuggingFace LeRobot SO100 robot arm! Open robot brain runs on open hardware. Sounds just right. Let’s solve robotics, together, one token at a time.

IXC-2.5 excels in various text-image comprehension and composition applications, achieving GPT-4V level capabilities with merely 7B LLM backend. Trained with 24K interleaved image-text contexts, it can seamlessly extend to 96K long contexts via RoPE extrapolation. This long-context capability allows IXC-2.5 to excel in tasks requiring extensive input and output contexts. Compared to its previous 2.0 version, InternLM-XComposer-2.5 features three major upgrades in vision-language comprehension: (1) Ultra-High Resolution Understanding, (2) Fine-Grained Video Understanding, and (3) Multi-Turn Multi-Image Dialogue. In addition to comprehension, IXC-2.5 extends to two compelling applications using extra LoRA parameters for text-image composition: (1) Crafting Webpages and (2) Composing High-Quality Text-Image Articles. IXC-2.5 has been evaluated on 28 benchmarks, outperforming existing open-source state-of-the-art models on 16 benchmarks. It also surpasses or competes closely with GPT-4V and Gemini Pro on 16 key tasks.
