1/ Gemini 2.5 is here, and it’s our most intelligent AI model ever. Our first 2.5 model, Gemini 2.5 Pro Experimental is a state-of-the-art thinking model, leading in a wide range of benchmarks – with impressive improvements in enhanced reasoning and coding and now #1 on Arena by a significant margin. With a model this intelligent, we wanted to get it to people as quickly as possible. Find it on Google AI Studio and in the Google Gemini for Gemini Advanced users now – and in Vertex in the coming weeks. This is the start of a new era of thinking models – and we can’t wait to see where things go from here.

The next phase of on-chain AI requires more than execution and models. It requires identity. We’ve partnered with Unstoppable Domains to launch .openx, a dedicated domain designed just for on-chain AI systems. .openx provides a human-readable identity layer that maps directly to wallet addresses, without changing execution logic, permissions, or custody.

"The best organizations won't manage token budgets manually. Instead, they'll rely on orchestration layers that automatically route workloads to the right models based on performance, cost, and use case. Keeping track of which model is best for coding, finance, research, or support will become too complex for humans to manage directly, so intelligent routing will become a core part of enterprise AI infrastructure."

Sub-40ms full self-driving on a $100 drone! 🚁 A demonstration showing a complete full-self-driving pipeline running in under 40 milliseconds on a $100 drone. The prompt: "Find the bike and land." No pre-mapping. Running real-time on commodity hardware. For context, human reaction time is around 200-250ms. This drone is processing sensor data, understanding natural language commands, identifying objects, planning motion, and executing control, all in 40ms. This is what happens when foundation models meet efficient inference. The models get smaller and faster while maintaining capability. The hardware gets cheaper while getting more powerful. The intersection makes previously impossible applications suddenly viable. A few years ago, this required thousands of dollars in compute, pre-mapped environments, and cloud connectivity. Now it runs locally on hardware that costs less than a nice dinner. Awesome stuff Chester & ! 😮‍💨 ~~ ♻️ Join the weekly robotics newsletter, and never miss any news →

❗️❗️🇺🇦 Ukraine has found a cheap weapon to defend against Russian attacks — the Ukrainian rebel complex Lima, developed by the defense startup Cascade Systems. 🔺 The system does not destroy targets, but instead disrupts their navigation. Lima creates powerful jamming fields that interfere with satellite signals. It imitates the satellite navigation signals used by Russian missiles, drones, and glide bombs, redirecting them to false coordinates. As a result, cruise and ballistic missiles, Shahed kamikaze drones, and bombs with pre-programmed coordinates in their guidance systems deviate to a different direction. Video is generated by grok AI

Elon Musk has repeatedly highlighted the hand (and forearm) as one of the toughest engineering challenges for Tesla’s Optimus Robot. A new Patent (for presumably Optimus 3) shows Tesla is using human anatomy to recreate a tendon-driven robotic hand and forearm assembly that closely mimics a human system. Basically, Tesla is replacing human muscles with actuators and tendons with cables to replicate human dexterity. The Tesla Engineering team is on another level. Optimus Gen 3 reveal is going to be incredible.

✨ Every time the video models get better, the try on model on Photo AI also becomes a lot more useful, as a large % of my customers now are e-commerce store And showing clothes in a video is nice for sales! With AI this means stores don't need to do expensive shoots flying a model and entire camera and light crew around the world They can just upload a few photos of their models, then upload the clothes, and describe the setting (like a beach in Thailand) and in less than 10 seconds it's generated, for a video in less than a minute! Below is the input: a dress laid flat, and output: a full video shoot

Generative 3d environments just became a thing with the announcement of OpenAI's new video model, Sora. Michael Rublof from took one of those videos, and turned it into a NeRF using Colmap and Nerfstudio. While people are laughing at the topology of generated models, the world is changing around us, and that's exciting and a little scary, but we'll find a way to turn Gen Ai into creative superpowers. I believe in human creativity, in our ability to surprise, to move, to change and to challenge. Here's to the future! #ai #art

SuperMap: A Living Spatial Memory for Embodied AI RSS 2026 Carnegie Mellon University SuperMap is a living spatial memory for embodied AI. It perceives the world, remembers its evolution, and supports reasoning and action. It is a training-free spatio-temporal SLAM system that builds a persistent semantic world model. It fuses high-frequency geometric SLAM with asynchronous open-vocabulary perception, producing a 4D scene graph: a queryable map carrying spatial and temporal information for every object, enabling visual-language navigation and long-horizon reasoning on real robots.

Video diffusion models have strong implicit representations of 3D shape, material, and lighting, but controlling them with language is cumbersome, and control is critical for artists and animators. GenLit connects these implicit representations with a continuous 5D control signal describing the direction and intensity of a point light source. This enables single-image near-field relighting of an image using a video diffusion model. We use a ControlNet-like approach and show that, with a small amount of synthetic data, GenLit generalizes to complex real-world images. Given a single image and the 5D lighting signal, GenLit creates a video of a moving light source that is inside the scene. It moves around and behind scene objects, producing effects such as shading, cast shadows, secularities, and interreflections with a realism that is hard to obtain with traditional inverse rendering methods. GenLit shows that it is possible to get continuous control over implicit physical processes within a video model. I think this is just the beginning and promises to make such models much more practical for creators. Shrisha Bharadwaj will present today at SIGGRAPH Asia Room: S423/S424, Level 4 @ 13:50 on 15 of Dec.

Robots now take crypto payments before they move a muscle Fabric Foundation (Fabric Foundation) has wired its RoboPay rail into physical hardware for the first time, demoing x402 payment verification on three platforms: Deep Robotics' M20 Pro quadruped, the AGIBot X2 humanoid, and a DOBOT CR5V robotic arm. A $USDC payment clears, RoboPay authorizes a bounded task, and the machine executes, from patrol runs to pick-and-place. The demo ran on Base's Sepolia testnet. With x402 already moving payments between AI agents, hardware integrations like these sketch out where the machine economy goes next: robots as paid, verifiable service providers.
