Qualia has been selected for the Google DeepMind Robotics Program. We train embodied models that put a robot on a real manual task and make it work, on the floor, not in a demo. Foundation models and reasoning are where robotics is heading, and doing that work alongside DeepMind, who are pushing this frontier, is exactly where we want to be. If you are a company looking to see how a new generation of robots can help your manual tasks, contact us at hello@qualiastudios.dev More soon

How can we more effectively leverage robot data from different embodiments for skill transfer? Excited to share that our new work, RoVi-Aug, has been accepted to Conference on Robot Learning as an oral paper！ WIth RoVi-Aug, you can augment an existing robot dataset into a different robot and different viewpoints. A policy trained on the augmented dataset can zero-shot deploy on the unseen target robot with significantly different camera angles! 🧵👇 🔗 Check out our paper:

World Models are the path for some AI Models in the future. But how can we efficiently train these models to not only see the world the way humans do but to see the world in a new and unique way. By visualizing, what is normally sequenced audio patterns, we can derive much more insights. Here we see Paganini in a visual form that can than be described and transcribed into a World Model. We can observe connections in a manner that may not have been clear prior to the digitalization of music and sound in this way. The company with the most valuable potential in building a World Model is Tesla. Not that this type of visualization is being used, but that the mechanisms are in place, and the technology is in place for the company to thrive in this new form of AI.

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.

After 5 months of planning, our first Live2D Jakarta Chapter event was a huge success! We brought an interactive Live2D showcase to the biggest anime con in Indonesia, featuring over 20 finest models created by our local artists and riggers. This showcase also included a custom-made plugin for VTube Studio that adds touch interactivity to Live2D models, allowing visitors to interact with VTuber models in a more engaging way! We hope this demo could open up new potential for Vtubers in IRL events. Special thanks to Live2D Inc. for trusting me to host this event! The showcase attracted many curious visitors and gave us the opportunity to introduce this tech to a wider audience, and we hope we are opening up new opportunities for everyone. Look forward to our next one! (Model: Key Oriesa by karamomo🍑 | Live2D Rigging | Food Illustration)

Teaching robots how to paint! 💅🏼 This painting robot, for example, mimics human movements with precision to handle repetitive, and tiring tasks. A special device memorizes points in 3D space, which are then sent to the robot's control. The result? A robot that, after a single demonstration, can perform a given action. Keep in mind that it's taught as 'fixed'. 👨🏻‍🔧 That is, it will not be able to react to an anomaly or changing environment. But ultimately, with fewer workers available and many avoiding tough, dirty jobs, robots are helping industries stay efficient and safe. ♻️ RT to help 1 robot find a new workplace!

I spent a day playing with GPT-5.6-Sol, and I can now say with much more confidence that it hasn’t improved at design tasks. I haven’t noticed any meaningful improvement in its coding capabilities, either. Maybe it's just in the tasks I gave it. However, I finished an app we started building on a stream yesterday and brought it close to the original idea I had in mind. It’s incredibly easy to build tools like this these days. I basically gave Codex a batch of editorial grid examples, then combined those layouts with formula-based pattern generation. A few prompts and some polishing, and you have something that can serve as a basic brand identity system.

HOLY MOLY running a 35B model locally on a MacBook shouldn’t be THIS FAST 🤯 Spent my weekend in atomic.chat testing Qwen 35B vs. Qwen 27B on my local machine. I had them generate a fully animated HTML/Canvas car mini-game (demo below), ... and both models breezed through the physics and parallax scrolling without a hitch! The secret sauce here is the Atomic Chat app. Because it's perfectly optimized for Mac and uses Google's new TurboQuant under the hood, you can run heavy open-source models flawlessly while keeping top-tier output quality 👊 Other perks: → ZERO setup required → Access 1,000+ models completely free → 100% offline and private → Zero API limits ... and MUCH more! I dropped the prompt I used in the 🧵↓ Spin it up locally and let me know what you get!

Imagine having a ping pong robot! 🏓 Researchers and developers building physical AI: meet Reachy 2 from Pollen Robotics, an open-source, humanoid robot for real-world experimentation. It’s a bimanual mobile manipulator: each 7-DOF arm mimics human proportions and can lift up to 3 kg, giving dexterity for object handling. It can be controlled with Python and ROS2 Humble, or go straight into VR teleoperation, use a headset to move Reachy’s arms, hands, and head, and see through its cameras as if you’re in the robot’s own body. Want it to move around? A mobile base with three omnidirectional wheels, rich sensors, and LiDAR lets Reachy 2 navigate and explore its surroundings smoothly. 🗺️ Under the hood, it’s powered by a CPU system that’s ready for machine learning, perfect for loading AI frameworks and testing new models from Hugging Face directly on the robot. Keep making robots more, and more accessible Pollen team! ... and keep making more open source models to make robots more mainstream clem 🤗!

SOMEONE TURNED THEIR TEAM'S TASK TRACKER INTO A 3D ISLAND instead of a boring list of tasks, your teams work is a little island that grows as you get stuff done > you assign tasks right in slack, just type who its for, the points, and the due date > finish a task and you get to place a building on the island > get your work rejected and the building collapses into rubble > the rubble stays there forever, so everyone can see it > each new sprint starts a fresh island so over time the island fills up with buildings for all the work your team actually finished, and the rubble is a reminder of what got rejected. its open source, so any team can set it up. way more fun than staring at a to do list all day

Mom here: Sam has been having a little trouble with his back legs. Nothing new, just more dramatic lately. His back legs gave out trying to go up a flight of stairs - which is new. So we sat on the floor together and shared blueberries. Calling the vet to get him in for his Ketamine and Librela shot which always seem to help. Growing old is part of life, we will care for him just as he cared for me for so many years. Video: Sam lying on a tile floor being fed blueberries.

⚠️NEW Karmagawa SCHOOL #122 IS OFFICIALLY OPEN! ⚠️ I am SO proud to announce one more new school grand opening in 2024 as we officially opened The School Of Impact the other day in Bali! It was a very emotional day for all of us ushering in this new school which was funded by the great Lance Breitstein 🇺🇸🌎 and renovated and painted beautifully by BaliChildrensProject so now double the amount of students can attend! Crazy enough, asbestos was found during the renovation, unbeknownst to anyone until we started the construction for the bigger school so sadly this community, along the with the teachers and children, had been inhaling this dangerous chemical for years — this new school couldn’t come fast enough and we’re proud to help while looking forward to opening more schools and libraries in 2025 and beyond! #newschool #givingback #knowledgeispower

A Gaussian Splat can become a world where Robots and AI agents can act. In our latest OVER Research experiment, we placed a robot inside a real-world 3D capture, with a VLM making decisions based on what it sees. At every step, the robot holds a pose in the reconstruction, gets a newly rendered view of the environment, takes an action, moves, and sees the world again from its new position. Why does this matter? Because 3D captures can become more than reconstructions to explore. They can become environments where embodied AI and robots can navigate, act, be evaluated and eventually train across real-world spaces at scale. Capture a place once. Then turn it into a world where AI and Robots can act. The full experiment, including what we discovered once we actually put the loop to the test:

It's 2030 and you are reviewing humanoid robots. A Tesla. A Google. An Apple. An OpenAI. A Meta. A Figure. And a bunch of Chinese-made ones. Which one is best, and why? I think the Tesla understands the world much better. Why? There were eight Teslas around me on the freeway today. Start there. No other robot company has that data. But my robot is parked at the local high school twice a day. Its cameras see humans in all of our weirdness. How we move. Where we go. Where we walk. Who we talk with. What you are wearing. Whether your hair was combed this morning. That data will lead to robotics breakthroughs. Apple might keep up with its Vision Pro data, but it is too freaked out by the privacy implications of using said data. (On the front are six cameras and a couple of TOF -- Time Of Flight -- sensors that can see everything in your home in great detail). Google has a lot of data, for sure. All my: 1. Email. 2. Calendars. 3. Photos. 4. TV watching behavior. 5. Contacts. 6. Documents and spreadsheets. 7. Files. 8. Location data. So I expect Google's robot will be attractive to many. But how do you see the others shake out over the next five years? Make some guesses. But remember what an AI pioneer told me years ago about AI: it's all about the data. The Chinese ones have huge advantages: the Chinese have more data on their citizens, and many more citizens to boot AND they can make robots cheaper than we can. But now that you know OpenAI is building its own robot you have caught wind of what I've heard from many in San Francisco and Silicon Valley: that humanoid robots are the real prize of AI and will be highly profitable for those that can make them and find customers willing to buy them. Here, too, I learned long ago never to bet against Elon Musk. Will you?

Full transparency, right?) Loeb: "If we had access to materials, then we could do much more. And so, we are currently engaged with the government in planning a future experiment where we would go to the field, together with the government, and place some instrumentation there and collect new data." Also... Loeb: "We submitted a request for more than 50 items of information about past incidents and we hope to get some of those shared with us. That is data that goes beyond what was released (in the 5 dumps)."
