Agibot just released a robot dog, a factory-worker humanoid robot on wheels, a "white-collar" humanoid robot for reception-like duties, and a playful dancing robot.

But if you shrink that robot down, give it the ambulatory capabilities of a human and bathe the whole thing in AI, Hyundai reckons it can replace the most unreliable element of the modern assembly line: the human laborer. Enter Atlas, one of those humanoid ‘bots I mentioned up top there. As it turns out, Atlas can do more than dodge a hockey stick.

The plan marks a step toward automating higher-risk and repetitive manufacturing tasks, the South Korean company said.

Nvidia’s new lineup of open-source AI models is headlined by Alpamayo 1 (pictured), a so-called VLA, or vision-language-action, algorithm with 10 billion parameters. It can use footage from an autonomous vehicle’s cameras to generate driving trajectories.
