According to Google DeepMind, their new AI model supports multiple robot embodiments, including humanoids and industrial bi-arm robots, despite being pre-trained exclusively on the ALOHA dataset and human instructions (source: Google DeepMind Twitter, June 24, 2025). The model demonstrates advanced fine motor skills and precise manipulation, allowing robots to perform complex tasks that typically require human dexterity. This development represents a significant leap in AI-driven robotics, broadening practical applications in manufacturing automation, logistics, and service industries. Businesses can leverage this technology to boost efficiency and adapt to dynamic operational requirements, optimizing labor costs and improving safety standards.

According to Yann LeCun (@ylecun), his keynote and fireside chat with Melissa Heikkilä from the Financial Times at Vivatech 2025 focused on emerging AI research trends and their business applications. LeCun discussed the evolution of foundation models, the commercial impact of generative AI, and strategies for leveraging advanced machine learning in enterprise solutions. The session emphasized practical pathways for AI integration in sectors like finance and manufacturing, offering actionable insights for companies looking to capitalize on the latest AI innovations (Source: Yann LeCun on Twitter, linkedin.com/posts/yann-lecun, June 18, 2025).
