"1X, the robotics company behind the Neo humanoid robot, has unveiled a new AI model that it says understands the dynamics of the real world and can help bots learn new information on their own. This physics-based model, called 1X World Model, uses a combination of video and prompts to give Neo robots new abilities. The video allows Neo robots to learn new tasks they weren't previously trained on, according to 1X."
"After years of developing our world model and making Neo's design as close to human as possible, Neo can now learn from internet-scale video and apply that knowledge directly to the physical world, Bernt Børnich, founder and CEO of 1X said in a company in a statement. With the ability to transform any prompt into new actions - even without prior examples - this marks the starting point of Neo's ability to teach itself to master nearly anything you could think to ask."
1X released a physics-based 1X World Model that uses internet-scale video and text prompts to give Neo humanoid robots new abilities. The model links recorded video of behaviors to specific prompts and ingests that data into a shared world model so robots can acquire tasks they were not explicitly trained on. Improvements are propagated back into the network of Neo robots to increase collective understanding of physical dynamics and practical know-how. Pre-orders for Neo humanoids opened in October and exceeded expectations, while shipping timelines and exact order volumes were not disclosed. The model does not enable instant mastery of complex real-world skills without further training and provides users with insight into Neo's intended behavior.
