As "world models" become the dominant paradigm in robotics, the industry is grappling with a term that means everything and nothing. We map out the competing visions from LeCun, NVIDIA, 1X, and Tesla.

Researchers from Tsinghua and Peking University have introduced LATENT, a system that enables the Unitree G1 humanoid to perform high-speed tennis rallies by learning from "imperfect" human motion data and applying corrective residual actions.

LG Electronics and the Korea Institute of Science and Technology (KIST) have unveiled KAPEX, a next-generation humanoid robot designed to learn and adapt in real-world environments, marking a major push to compete in the global race for 'physical AI'.
