Any robot that does this reliably is easily more than a decade away.

From your early point -- both 1) and 2) are true. True human level dexterity is ver far (few decades surely), it would require further advancements in hardware, learning approaches…

here is a real video of a unitree robot playing ping pong https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOfPKW6D3gE

how do you know this is a better model? I wouldn't take any of the numbers at face value especially when all they have done is more/better post-training and thus the base pre-train…

This is probably very similar to what happened!

the problem here is that text as the communication interface is not good for this. the model should be reasoning in the pose space (and generally in more geometric spaces), then in…

How are you defining dextrous? I think it can be somewhat challenging but not dextrous -- the robot doesn't need to be very precise (few cms here and there do not matter), there ar…

Locomotion and manipulation are pretty different. The former we know how to do well -- this is what you see in unitree videos. Manipulation still not so much. This is not at all li…

Here you can see another much simpler robot folding clothes for far longer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gdeBIR0jVvU (there are more videos from other companies as well) To answ…

+100!!! Please don't fall for the HYPE. The current best neural networks only have around 60% success rates for small horizon tasks (think 10-20 seconds e.g. pick up apple). That i…

In all of these posts there is someone claiming Claude is the best, then somebody else claiming they have tried a bunch of times and for them Gemini is the best while others find G…

so their way to differentiate against frontier labs is to try writing research blog posts (not papers). It will be interesting to see how this plays out. I don't think that anyone …

This paper was just too overhyped by the authors. Also, the initial evals were very limited and very strange. This blog post does a much better job at a similar observation -- goes…

and so is the safety margin for a humanoid. The consumer market is huge only if the robots are highly reliable and work very well both of which are not true at the moment. Things w…

Claude is extremely poor at vision when compared to Gemini and ChatGPT. i think anthropic severely overfit their evals to coding/text etc. use cases. maybe naively adding browser u…

The 1 million robot number that Amazon keeps on using is a quite nuanced. It includes more ~800K robots that simply just move stuff in a 2D plane. I think the number of robots that…

ohh wow, that's bad, just tried this with Gemini 2.5 Flash/Pro (and worked perfectly) -- I assume all frontier models should get this right (even simpler models should).
