Todd Hall and I argue that China is acting like a global opposition party, using the weaknesses of US power to campaign for greater international authority.
Grateful for this write-up of our article
While the US is increasingly viewed as an erratic provocateur, @karishmajourno writes, China has cast itself as a stabilizing force (via @opinion) https://t.co/Z17XDW7T4D

@BBCPallab Super interesting article. Pallab, if you want to have a look at the effect of nonverbal cues on trust in real world UK politics, have a look at ch 3 of my book, Deliberative Accountability in Parliamentary Committees. Food for thought.

We built a robot brain that nothing can stop.
Shattered limbs? Jammed motors? If the bot can move, the Brain will move it— even if it’s an entirely new robot body.
Meet the omni-bodied Skild Brain:
For the first time in a while, I saw something pure sci-fi…
This is something straight out of a movie where one AI controls all the Robots. This seems exciting & slightly terrifying when you think about it.
I joined Skild AI late last year and we've been making swift progress towards more general robots!
To record these videos we took the robot around town to locations it had never seen before with no prior preparation or planning.
From camera images and joint feedback, Skild Brain directly commands robot actions, seamlessly adjusting robot behavior. It requires no hardcoding.
This is the first portion (low-level, high-frequency) of the Skild Brain, our robotics foundation model.
We’ve all seen humanoid robots doing backflips and dance routines for years.
But if you ask them to climb a few stairs in the real world, they stumble!
We took our robot on a walk around town to environments that it hadn’t seen before. Here’s how it works🧵⬇️
