Demo shows a robot completing "put the eggplant in the pot" using RT2X, and a cross-embodiment dataset RTX: 34 labs, 22 robots trains a single model that averages ~50% better than lab-specific methods and yields a 3x boost on hardest language-following examples. Second‑generation VLAs add a continuous action decoder; PIO5 is pre-trained on ~10,000 hours, improves from verbal coaching, generalizes after ~100 training homes, and has a working PyTorch port.
