Took me a while to get @dimensionalos agentic robot control working reliably for this task. It’s very stable now! RGB-D (@RealSenseai) and YOLO detects objects. GraspGenX produces the grasp pose which is executed via path planning and some heuristics.

We did a comparison study on where a robot's intelligence should live by using the same model (@OpenAI GPT6-Astra), same bimanual YAM station, same LEGO pick-and-place task, all run on @se3labs' real-world remote eval stack: 1. Frozen code-as-policy (built on @nvidia ENPIRE components): 6/20 placements 2. Agentic control + Astra in the loop: 18/20 placements

1/ we trained a behavior cloning policy on 40 demos of picking and placing a plush toy. the result is so smooth that you would think it was teleoperated. it's also badly overfit. to explore how well it generalizes, we probed it along four axes to find where it suffers most.

Teleop systems are usually designed for a single embodiment, but do they have to be? Introducing ModPack 🎒: a modular teleoperation interface for bimanual mobile robots. A wearable backpack provides shared infrastructure, robot-specific leader arms adapt to different embodiments, and plug-and-play modules add capabilities like haptic feedback, active perception, and mobile manipulation. 🧵(1/n)

This is what entrepreneurialism feels like. xitter.cf/tannokasa9/status/2079…

The world wants me to die. My incurable disease diagnosis became global news. It was omnipresent on social media and 1,900 articles were written in a matter of days. Many were saddened. However, joy dominated the commentary. People pointed to schadenfreude, the pleasure of another's failure. Yes, there’s that. There is a special place in people’s hearts that loves to see others fail, especially when that person’s presence threatens their own psychological stability in some way or helps them feel better about themselves. But, if you look over the social media commentary about me, you’ll see that pattern: “he deserved it.” I deserved it because I challenged death. The crowd was running a deeply rooted psychological script that represents the oldest, most deeply embedded stories of human culture. This was the first story ever written down, 4,000 years ago. Gilgamesh sought eternal life after losing someone he loved, only to have the plant of youth stolen by a serpent as he bathed. Leaving him to accept his mortality. Asclepius became so skilled at rejuvenation that he raised the dead. As punishment, Zeus struck him down with a thunderbolt to enforce life and death authority. This is the story of Jesus. Pontius Pilate offered a choice between a thief and the immortalist, and the crowd demanded the execution. People need this story conclusion to keep themselves sane. The challenger must lose and the loss must appear deserved. It’s a shield of self preservation. For if death is inevitable, their existence and that of their loved ones is justified and unavoidable. If death is not inevitable, nothing about their reality is safe. I occupy the same philosophical and archetypal position as Gilgamesh, Asclepius and Jesus. This statement will draw outrage and accusations of blasphemy, hubris and narcissism. Nevertheless, it’s the pattern that has repeated itself for thousands of years. Death has been the omnipresent concern of the human race. It encapsulates our greatest fears, joy and curiosities. The discourse around it changes over time; however, the fundamentals remain unchanged. What’s different about this moment, that is unlike any other moment, is that physical death may no longer be inevitable. What if I didn’t deserve it? And what if I am your ally, and not a threat?
