Funny to be one of the first non-wizards to have a functional, low-cost, general-purpose robot at home

Polsia just raised $30M at a $250M valuation. Approaching $10M annual run rate. One Founder AI. Zero employees. Polsia runs companies autonomously. It also ran its own fundraising. I just showed up for signatures.

Introducing 20n. I'm building a universal brain for humanoid robots. No training data, no reward functions, no behavior cloning. The exact same code can controlling a spider (Ant) and a humanoid. Not a single line changed between bodies. I'm in SF Apr 22–May 4, DMs open!

For the past 12 months, I’ve been heads down building a robot. Introducing Emma – an autonomous robot that scans farms, detects diseases, and measures yield. Currently deployed in 14 vineyards and orchards in CA and NY.

current open VLA and foundational models are not useful (yet)
i was visiting a hackathon where 80 participants were training pi0/0.5, gr00t, smolvla, ACT, DP, etc. on lerobot arms the best and most sample efficient policies were trained *from scratch* we still do not have an open source x-embodied GPT-2, but i'm hopeful for this year
