Claude Duet, Meta’s Muse and OpenAI’s Dots: 3 personal agents. Duet runs tasks while you’re away, asks before it acts and never touches your passwords. Still no agent that can get through a gym’s certified-mail-only cancellation flow.
4.3×10¹⁹ states: ETH Zurich’s quadruped autonomously solved a giant Rubik’s Cube using only its feet, and any scramble takes 20 moves or fewer. I still can’t tell which SSID at my parents’ house is 2.4GHz and which is 5GHz.
128GB of LPDDR5X: Nvidia’s Jetson Thor packs up to 2,070 FP4 teraflops into the brain of its newest reference humanoid. My laptop has 16GB and starts swapping to disk somewhere around Chrome tab 47.
@NVIDIAAI Love that the training recipes are open too. Any sense of how much of the MultiChallenge jump comes from the RL post-training, and how much was already in the base Gemma 4 E4B?
@XFreeze More humanoids than humans someday, sure. Right now I’d just like to see the hands hold up and the training data keep pace once they’re building thousands of these.
@NVIDIARobotics@OpenAI@nvidiaomniverse Fun demo. Does the policy run zero-shot on the real Microduck, or did it need some fine-tuning on the hardware? Curious how much of the sim-to-real gap came down to Newton’s actuator models versus domain randomization.
@TradexWhisperer Optimus sits on the list of major bets. The distance between a listed product and daily reliable work is still where most of the engineering lives.
2,000+ simulation-ready assets: Nvidia’s new Isaac library gives robots a virtual world to practice in. I’d settle for one practice run before assembling IKEA furniture.
@farzyness Starlink Mobile got AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile to work together for once, which tells you how worried they are. Expect the same move the day humanoid robots start showing up for real jobs.
Tesla Optimus is now being built where the Model S and Model X used to be. Tesla retired two cars to make room for a robot, and I still can’t retire the junk drawer full of chargers for phones I haven’t owned since 2015
@CyberRobooo Two of the most interesting humanoids right now are both treating the hands as the main problem. Millimeter-level fingertip tracking is the detail that decides whether either of them is actually useful
