With OpenAI, Figure 01 can now have full conversations with people

-OpenAI models provide high-level visual and language intelligence
-Figure neural networks deliver fast, low-level, dexterous robot actions

Everything in this video is a neural network:

[Stephen James @stepjamUK]

High-level agent predicts next-best pose (e.g. C2F-ARM/PerAct/etc), which is then fed into a kinematically aware diffusion policy.

Pros of this over C2F/PerAct is that it doesn't rely on motion planning; here we are essentially "learning" the motion planning component.

And that's a wrap!
What a week it's been, both exhilarating and exhausting, and absolutely worth it.
One last dinner with @riiaa_org organizers to plan what's next, and now I'm off.
¡Hasta la próxima, Quito! 💖🇪🇨

The editorial has just invited me to publish a second edition 🍾

Apart from the correction I did one year ago, which I think never got to the printer, what content would you like I include as an extension?

Real-time, manipulation, software architectures design, ...? 🧞‍♂️

[Peter Yang @petergyang]

Love this clip from Jensen Huang (Nvidia CEO) on why innovation requires failure.

"Unless you have a tolerance for failure, you will never experiment. If you don't experiment you won't innovate, and if you don't innovate you won't succeed."

We are learning that AI systems reflect the biases and prejudices of its creators in the most ironic way possible

[Chris Paxton @chris_j_paxton]

There’s a ton of exciting progress in robotics these days, from big companies like Google and NVIDIA, to startups and academic labs. Here’s a short thread of some cool robotics things you may have missed from the last week or so:

[LatinX in AI (LXAI) @_LXAI]

Join us for the next iteration of #LatinXinComputerVision at @CVPR!

#CVPR2024 @latinxincv #computervision #latam

[Brayan Impatá @_yayan24]

@pcastr Oh yeah, full commitment with the #runconference 😎

[Covariant @CovariantAI]

Our co-founders made the bold move to leave the early team at OpenAI. Why? To create AI for the physical world—productized robots that can reason and adapt to real-world scenarios.

An early conviction that is echoed by @ilyasut in a discussion on @dwarkesh_sp's podcast.

[Brayan Impatá @_yayan24]

It seems our paper is already navigating through the web ❤️! My colleague @mlagunas_ will be presenting our work at the @_LXAI workshop at @CVPR.
