Chris Paxton(@chris_j_paxton):This is the mark of a general purpose robot foundation model -- that it can be taught tasks from examples without training. We saw an early version of this from rhoda and a solid one last week from generalist, and now a really impressive, ten minute long one from skild. This to me does feel like the true gpt moment for robotics -- because if it truly generalizes, that means that you can really start deploying robots for anything, as developing robot skills becomes like prompting
