Alright, alright, alright…

CoRL registration is completely maxed out, with hundreds of people on the waiting list. Please stop flooding my inbox for tickets 😂

You can still join the fun! Our partners are hosting social events all over town. We gathered the list of public events here:

Many don’t require a conference badge to attend. Let’s turn Ausitn into a Robotics Party Town!

Sharing a copy of my ICRA'26 keynote talk from three months ago. 3 key messages:

1. Building a human-like machine, a dream that has fascinated humankind for centuries, is rapidly becoming a reality.

2. Human data is, by far, the most scalable source of training data to fuel robot foundation models.

3. World models are a "data sponge" that can absorb massive amounts of multimodal data for policy generalization.

Slides: yukezhu.me/talks/building…

The talk brought together our work over the past year: GR00T, EgoScale, SONIC, WAM, and more. Here’s the same demo I showed on stage: Our (now old!) model learning to assemble the YCB airplane with zero teleop data.

We've made incredible progress since then. What's coming next? 🚀
