Foundation model/VLA startups remind me of physics sims circa 1st wave of the robotics cycle 10 yrs ago: flash in the pan but fizzled out quickly when Nvidia/Google open sourced theirs.
History rhymes. The min Astra was released, most fdn models died.

Here's part of why we have Aexodus in our corner. VLEO offers real advantages over higher orbits, but conventional propulsion can't sustain operations there. Aexodus wrote about why that gap matters: insights.aexodus.com/p/the-r…
Hot take: p(doom) is a top-down psyop to give the population yet another existential crisis to ruminate over ad nauseum until we willingly give up free use of AI in favor of licensed, regulated AI and a public-private partnership bw frontier labs and their govt counterparts.
And no, a paltry UBI stimmy the govt promises to dole out once a month isn't worth the cost of the loss of autonomy, agency, and potential wealth generation empowered by open & sovereign AI.

On the Silk Road, the big winners often weren't the merchants. They held the outposts where trade settled. Space is building its own now.

Disclosure: Aexodus is an investor in SpaceXAI, Rendezvous Robotics and Vaxon Space.
Data is no moat for robots. It's a means to an end.
When a company like @Figure_robot spends $15m on data & unleashes it to the world, it's a loss leader to get their Trojan horse thru the door.
When startups in China do the same & open sources said datasets, it's not a moat.

Introducing GEN-1.5, a one-shot learner.
It can learn new tasks in a few seconds. Show it what to do, and it generalizes.
This capability emerged from pretraining on physical data at scale, as a step towards our mission of building general intelligence for the physical world.

It's official, Unitree the 8000x+ retail oversubscribed humanoid company in China.
Is expected to go public in 2 days! So the 19th.
Opening is implied to be around ~$41.66B MC per derivatives, around +363.3% above its ~$9B IPO valuation.
Fun times for humanoids this week.

Asimov 1 is an open-source reference humanoid robot. It ships as a complete DIY kit. $20,000 total, delivered to your door. menlo.ai/asimov-1

this is absolutely unreal
jack dorsey (twitter co-founder) just shipped a totally free github repo sitting at 26.2k stars that basically hands you an ai-agent operating system for running a business
here’s the setup:
1. clone the repo
2. host the server yourself: channels, search, git, automations, it all runs there
3. drop your agent into a channel like it’s another teammate, lock down its permissions, and let the crew guide it in real time
save this and bookmark it, seriously

uhhh... the Unitree IPO is more than 8000 times oversubscribed by retail investors.
The demand for pure play humanoid companies is absolutely enormous?
I'm personally in the US-based Agility Robotics club (Softbank, $NVDA, $AMZN, Foxconn, etc), at $2.5B premoney via $CCXI.
And my take is that Unitree likely opening at $30B+ (from pre-ipo perps), might bring the leading US players some more attention in a week or two.
Regardless that's just absurd demand.
