Super proud to work closely with the Berkeley ABC team on this!
Thrilled to see us taking a leap forward for #EmbodiedAI and the future of general-purpose robotics.
Check out our launch below! 👇
Introducing ABC: open data, training, and infrastructure for robotics.
We release the largest teleop dataset to date, and extensively investigate design decisions, pretraining, and post-training techniques.

Announcing @xdofai: We’ve raised $70 million to build the core robotic infrastructure ecosystem for robot foundation models.
My cofounders Fred (@YideShentu), Nemo (@itsnemojin) and I have been pursuing the dream of general purpose robots for our entire lives. After work at Covariant, Meta and Tesla, it became clear to us that general purpose robots are coming, and we are building XDOF to help make them a reality.
For the last two years, we’ve been working behind the scenes to support major labs and companies deploying robots. In us, they have a partner with full-stack expertise, from hardware to operations to policy training.
As our first public contribution to the space, we are open-sourcing ABC-130K, the largest open source teleoperation dataset, in collaboration with our partners from UC Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon, MIT and Amazon FAR.
Thank you to our customers, partners, collaborators and investors for your trust and conviction in us. Together, we can accelerate the future of robotics!
In a world of AI, what does it mean to “get ahead”?
I wrote this article 'Why Longevity is your Best Life Strategy' to explore a fundamental shift of life strategy:
Time, not status, may be the new leverage. https://t.co/xQEUMgRk62
Would love to hear your thoughts
And EV industry in the 2012-2014: I was there witnessing a group of visionary people sensing the industry will change, and jumping into EV startup or start EV startups. You can imagine how well they are dong now.
Being in NYC today and working in Stablecoins/onchain payments is equivalent to:
1. Athens during the golden age
(Socrates, Plato, Hippocrates, etc.)
2. Florence during the renaissance
(Da Vinci, Michelangelo, Alighieri, etc.)
3. Detroit during the early auto boom
(Ford, Durant, Leland, etc.)
4. Silicon Valley during the 70s & 80s
(Jobs, Gates, Moore, etc.)
5. Vienna during the classical music era
(Mozart, Hayden, Beethoven, etc.)
6. U.S during the Industrial Revolution
(Carnegie, Vanderbilt, Rockefeller, etc.)
wow.
openai staff set a deadline of 5pm tonight for all board members to resign and bring sam and greg back, or else they all resign.
the board agreed but is now waffling and its an hour past the deadline.
this is all happening in real time, right now.
