Kudos to NVidia for making the source code for this one open source. Most of the times we see these amazing papers, only to see hidden away in expensive functionality. It is nice to see research that will help others make new and interesting things!

If Telsa wishes to be worthy of Two minute Papers, they should produce a peer reviewed work! I would respectfully suggest that the standard of your excellent chanel isn't lowered just to cover a company that already has an outsized coverage in the media.

I'm more impressed with the robot's quick motors than the AI itself

Simple. "Robodoggy, Floor is lava"

Awesome video. Very hyped to read the research paper! The tesla showcase: To be honest. I don't trust the tesla showcase. There is no proof of how it works. I want a paper and reproduceable results cause this looks cool =(

I'm holding so tight to my papers!!!

Tesla Optimus is 10 years behind what other private modern robotics companies can do.

It's nice to know about exceptional new capabilities even if when they're not in a peer reviewed paper. It sometimes makes me wonder how something works and how these improvements compare to real papers which describe the process. I'm glad proprietary AI stuff seems to be a step or two ahead instead of 10-20 steps ahead.

It sure looks like that handler is helping quite a bit with stability.

Very interesting to see the dog exchanging "style" for "robustness" by lowering it's CG as much as it could. When we hear about balancing on a ball we don't typically think "crawling around it", I hope some day it will be able to walk on it elegantly like accrobats do ! And a speculative video on Tesla's humanoÏd robot would be a great exception that I'd love to watch !

It's amazing to see the simulation application in real world examples now. You've been showing us plenty of papers, mostly by nvidia', that show how simulation can be used to program robots and it's great to have new terms like domain randomisation. Thank you always.

They made lucid dreams to make the robots work better

As interested as i am in the development of androids such as the tesla robot, we should not support them releasing non-conclusive results. However, as soon as they release something official to look at, i'm gonna be here waiting for you to release a video about it :)

It works because the dog knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't, by subtracting where it is, from where it isn't, or where it isn't, from where it is, whichever is greater, it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance sub-system uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the dog from a position where it is, to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is. Consequently, the position where it is, is now the position that it wasn't, and it follows that the position where it was, is now the position that it isn't. In the event of the position that it is in is not the position that it wasn't, the system has required a variation. The variation being the difference between where the dog is, and where it wasn't. If variation is considered to be a significant factor, it too, may be corrected by the GEA. However, the dog must also know where it was. The dog's guidance computance scenario works as follows: Because a variation has modified some of the information the dog has obtained, it is not sure just where it is, however it is sure where it isn't, within reason, and it knows where it was. It now subtracts where it should be, from where it wasn't, or vice versa. By differentiating this from the algebraic sum of where it shouldn't be, and where it was. It is able to obtain a deviation, and a variation, which is called "the ball"

Thank you for speaking about the particular techniques used for training. It's really helpful to understand how these achievements were accomplished and how they relate to previous approaches.

I think it's best to stick to papers rather than get caught up in speculation. We should think of Tesla's video as nothing more than marketing materials.

good video! regarding speculative video possibility, I prefer focusing only on peer reviewed papers!

It’s quite something to realise that robots have more than The Laws of Physics to work with. What a time to be alive! 😅

Clever robot - and yet the handler is using a leash. Let the thing go, I'll be more impressed.

Actually, the robot dog was walking the man!

Seeing the dog balancing on a ball made me think that these could be fun to train on skateboards or skates or such.

Yeah it would be great. AI is booming at the moment and a lot of it is proprietary. I’d like a deeper dive into what techniques these companies might be using and the process they’re making from someone with good knowledge in the space.

Its always better then the thumbnail and title implies

One of those Tesla clips shows a number of people in VR gear apparently controlling the robots. Probably part of the training, but Musk does have a reputation for making claims that later turned out to be overstated

Dude is holding the dog in place by the leash. The leash is taut like 80% of the time.

I didn't see the dog balance on the ball on it's own a single time

I'd actually like to see AI deployed to hard code these balancing capabilities into the robots, so that the code can actually be reviewed by humans. That would certainly be the pinacle of AI-Technology.

What a time to be alive ... in a robot.

He’s holding it by a leash. You can see him balancing it

This whole robotic revolution seems like a common effort. The year of 2023 and 2024 'give birth' to a lot of new Robotics companies and their new robots products. Moreover now that NVIDIA give more attention to it, and also with the accelerated growth of open-source communities. And yes, it all happens from the grassroots to the giant companies such as the TeslaBot Optimus.

Not too sound like a hater but I feel like that tether was doing a lot of heavy lifting with the dog...

I think this channel is in a growth trajectory and more and more people who have little information will be watching. I remember in a chatGPT video someone said they didn’t know of it in the comments. So I think it’s important for this channel to cover these important areas of AI even if they don’t have papers

This Robodog here should jump on that Ball, roll through an Obstacle Course and then jump back down on the Ground without a Human holding that short Line. That would be impressive.

What a level of simulation! The robot dog is humping the ball!

(sees robot dog on ball crossing road) This is not how I expected Terminator to start

Holding the leash so tight it’s very hard to see how much the human is helping the robot dog not fall off the ball..

More stable than before

I have never felt more anxiety for a robot

what a time to be AI!

People in VR goggles and gloves mixing with training robots at 4:44 were pretty creepy.

Really cool!

Does the leash need be under such tension?

WW3 will have robot dogs balancing on yoga balls with weapon systems attached, fuck

I think the robot would fall without the leash?

Next step - Robo Circus Step after that - Both animals and robots enviroment (circus or park lol)

there is too much tension in the rope, as he appears to be stabilizing the robot.

Video from 2099: Look, this human can balance on a ball, they are so funny, too bad they are rare species.

You know what that means boyz One step closer to robogirls

Yes, speculate on the Tesla Optimus bot progress!

I read this paper, and a follow-up paper.

Looks like the leash is helping it stay up?

If I understand correctly the OpenAI robot is far, far past the Tesla robot.

Great video, always a good day when 2mp drops!! I think you should have fun with the difference between peer reviewed and mostly publicity stunt. have a funny AI generated bumper and alert when talking about something that isn't cut and dry.

This dog on a leash looks very funny

I'd pay real money to see this number in a circus.

Did you reupload i remember seeing this video already

Yes please to your suggested video !

Wow, the guy with the leash does an amazing job balancing the robot on the ball.

looks like LLMs are the new operating sytems of ai applications

0:38 That's probably super distracting for the drivers

It feels like the leash needs to be a little longer to tell how much it's contributing.

"Fellow scholars," are we not dear to you anymore good Sir? ;-;

Heyyy. I saw a similar paper at ICRA toda- hold on... is it the same one?

"4D Gaussian Splatting" when?

cant wait to see this on a moon or mars robber

Please what are the inputs in the simulation and in real world. Still confused!

The probability of us being in a simulation just keeps growing.

How long in simulation is equivalent to real life training?

I would welcome some speculative analysis by you, even if a paper is not available. Unfortunately, as it's clear a vast amount of money is involed, we will see less and less publicly available AI research and more proprietary technology. I like your channel not just for the excellent analysis of a paper, but it keeps me appraised of what is going on in AI development in a grounded way.

1:44 did it invent gopak while trying to learn to walk?

like to see optomus cordinate with two hands.

Shaky chihuahua robotics

Speculative video about Tesla Optimus would be nice with a disclaimer. Also if they lied about something big then it would be really nice if you corrected it in your future video like you did with Devin. Also great video. :)

I'd be more impressed if the leash wasn't so tense.

Terminator lied to me. I will be scared of balls now.

what the dawg doin 💀💀

cool !

Is this in the US or in Asia?

The robot on a ball looks so freaky, I cannot help but keep looking for generated video signs. Insane

all this 'kicking the robot' footage needs to be gone when it becomes sentient 😂

The dog would be falling off if there wasn't a human there keeping its lead taught. Its cool but its not like its really balancing by itself lol. You can even see like at 1:04 how much it is fumbling and how much the human is pulling it back to the right spot 🙄

you didn t talk about the use of gpt4 in the training of the robot.

"with *responsible* AI built in" hrhrhr sure thats why they immediatly connected it to the internet ^^

Robot wants to learn to use a Gun! What move should the robot forget to learn to use a Gun!?

"Working remarkably well" During all of the videos, rope holding dog up is straight. It's not falling because they are always holding it.

Optimus video would be cool

Personally i think you should Stick to the Papers. There are already way too many news channels showing off unreviewed work

why are all videos in 5fps?

scary stuff

THE FLOOR IS LAVA

holy mother of papers XD

WATTBA!!!

As for non-paper stuff, I think it's covered plenty in other places. Please stick with papers, fellow scholar.

Good, good, now make it balanced itself on a ball on top of another ball 😈

now things are heating up

Why are they holding the leash so tight?

They just need to improve it enough for it not to look like the dog is humping the ball

let it go

Hopefully it works better than the stupid open AI gym crap. I'm so tired of having to deal with that

Any ideas what the openai update on monday will be about karoly?
