♊+💡+🖨️ = Happy Halloween🎃🦿
While most jack-o-lanterns just sit on porches, the @GoogleDeepMind team decided to let AI agents design, simulate, and bring one to life. 🎃🤖
We built a physical, dancing 12 degrees of freedom robot directly from a single plain-English prompt, with no manual CAD required!
This design is so practical and safe comparing to 50kg robots. Kinda want one for the kids room.
Stringman MCP and Opus 5.5 clean a playroom
Some help was given when it asked for several large items to be set aside but it did OK. 129 minutes total.

Meet Sprout, a semi-autonomous plant robot powered by #Gemini and build with @antigravity.
Watch as it navigates the office in search of sunlight, pings for help, and uses Gemini Live and Robotics ER 2.0 for vision to care for fellow office plants.

🔥Exciting times!
Apollo having #tailgating party fun w/ #Argon.🏈🌽
It watched human play, real2sim, developed the motion in the sim and iterated action on real robot to score🎯!
#Robotics team is super hyped by #Argon's capabilities and you should try it on your robots too!
In robotics, Gemini 4 Argon is speeding up real-world physical learning.
We let Argon watch a video of a human playing cornhole. It mapped the environment, calculated whole-body joint movements, and autonomously built the simulation code to practice.
When transferred to Apptronik’s Apollo humanoid, the robot sank seven straight shots in a real-world trial.
🗓️9 weeks ago, I wrote about future physical AI ecosystem needs benchmark agencies📈. Here it comes!
Really like @Nicolas_Keller and @josermedinahdez 's work:
1) Manufacturing themed tasks - rare.
2) Show data performance trade-offs.
3) Controlled eval to reduce variance.
I was here in all-in summit. Life is a reality show😂
Holy crap POTUS just phoned in @JensenHuang live on stage at All In Summit
We will not lose the ai race! And whatever Dario said this weekend won’t stop our progress
This made my morning!
$NVDA
This is huge! 🤯
Reliance on real robot data and cross embodiment are big issues of robotics action models! Super excited to see OM1 solving both of them!
The motion is also fast and looks smart!
Great work @zipengfu @chenwang_j!
Handling noises well. Great!
I have a challenge: take the cute reachy bot into a bar, and maintain a conversation with it.
This is a real challenge every time I bring #pupper into to a party.
@OpenAIDevs do you want to take this challenge?
🏷️50% price reduction of #Gemini #Robotics ER 2 💥
We have seen a lot of love of #Gemini #Robotics ER 2.
One complaint we heard is that the model is more expensive than the previous ER versions.
Here you go, FIXED 🛠️!

🆕Introducing #GeminiRobotics ER 2 @google
ER 2 packs a stronger temporal understanding: an important aspect of embodied reasoning.
It pinpoints key moments in video, understands event progression, orchestrates VLA and robot APIs, etc.

"Your mind is clear!"
So much childhood memory!
How about also "Theme Hospital" and "Caeser III"? @davidkal88
Wow
“Make Red Alert 2 (YR) compile and run natively on iOS & macOS.”
Codex (GPT-5.6 Sol) worked for 26 days, analyzed the EXE and rebuilt the entire game in 624K lines of C++
This is by far the hardest task I’ve ever given Codex as the game's code was never released and is believed to be lost.

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
There is already an open source effort to build this and the posts claim that it was decompiled and built without assistance is false as the information to unpack the assets and game mechanics and rendering is already in the training corpus github.com/hel1o-wor1d/Op…
Unlike last time, Gemini 3.8 Flash is at true pareto frontier of price x performance space. Fake it until you make it in foundation models 😁
It also sits nicely at the sweet corner spot - for massive adoption.🚀
Robotics has been bombarded by model announcement in August.
Beyond in-context learning, the mission statement at the end of video depicted an exciting future.
"Every small business, every grocery store, every hospital, every organization can have the same power of robots."
Gemini 3.7 outputs joint actions directly to complete a robot task! Great work from @chooi_jeq.
This and recent work such as CaP-X and ENPIRE, etc suggests coding for robotics is making a strong return.
Combine coding with VLA / WAM is a good topic to think about.
Supermarket robot hosting a coconut water taste stand.
Robot from DexTeleop dexteleop.com. Fully teleoperared. Operator can hear but does not speak.
Deployed last month, it is not longer making a scene

👧🏻: Robots are replacing human.

Wow my hometown! I am in Taiyuan visiting my family, gonna check it out tomorrow😃
Two wheeled humanoid robots are being deployed at JD's 7FRESH supermarket in Taiyuan…
They are assisting with restocking, shelving, and providing product tasting and guidance. (VR TeleOP)
From Beijing to Tianjin and Taiyuan…JD is introducing humanoid robot employees to its retail supermarkets in large numbers to enhance the shopping experience and alleviate peak customer traffic.
But now,more importantly,TeleOP data
These humanoid robots are from Beijing-based DEXTELEOP's TA2… who have also entered into a strategic partnership with JD.
They are being deployed through JD's nationwide retail channels(20k).
Placing data collection in real-world operational scenarios and achieving commercial success is a significant achievement.
The physical world is the largest data collection center for humanoid robots.
