The Robot That Builds a Tiny Toy World Before Touching the Real One
ZeroBot builds a virtual object from one view, then trains a robot to handle it in minutes—while revealing the limits of imagined geometry.
A Robot Learns Housework by Borrowing a Human’s Point of View
A wheeled robot learns whole-body chores from human-worn sensors—but its limits in dexterity, sensing, and skill generalization reveal the price.
The Hidden Physics That Keeps a Robot’s Imagined World on Track
A world-model design gives AI’s imagined robot actions hidden motion variables, helping predictions stay physically coherent over longer sequences.
A Robot’s Hidden Skill Was the Toolkit It Built Around It
A frozen AI model gains robot skills by changing the tools around it, turning failures into better control, observation, and diagnosis.
Robot Models Failed Every Test—Then a Better View Helped
AI-built robot simulations revealed a surprising gap: powerful models failed every test, yet hidden-state coaching sharply improved learning.
