Genesis AI, a French robotics startup, has launched GENE-26.5, its first robot foundation model.
The model was trained on large-scale human operation data and evaluated through simulation-based closed-loop testing.
A showcased humanoid robot can crack eggs, cut tomatoes, make smoothies, solve Rubik's cubes, and organize cables.
The release points to faster progress toward general-purpose robot manipulation using foundation-model methods instead of task-by-task programming.
