This is an excellent post on how we go from controlled demos to real-world (ie, messy!), high success rate robotics. As many speculated, high quality pre-training and edge-case post-training, drives real-world generalizability.
But holy shit making that theory work in robotics is HARD. Details on how, and how rigorously they evaluate progress will help everyone move forward.
@sundayrobotics progress is now compounding. So cool to see!
