Y Combinator 对谈 Waddle Labs 与 Robocurve:通用模型如何直接控制机器人
YC 拉了 Waddle Labs 和 Robocurve 的创始人聊怎么用通用模型直接操控机器人,还现场演示了 Astra 控制,搞机器人的可以看看。
Y Combinator 播客 Decoded 邀请了 Waddle Labs 和 Robocurve 两家机器人初创公司的创始人。MIT 教授 Philip Isola 在近期文章中提出,机器人正在进入 robot-use agent 时代:通用模型可以在几乎不做机器人专项训练的情况下控制不同机器人、编写策略并学习新的物理任务。对谈涉及 code-as-policies、视觉-语言-动作(VLA)模型,以及让这些系统在真实环境中运行所需的 harness 和 evals,并现场演示了用 Astra 控制机器人。
One of the biggest surprises in AI over the last few years has been how well coding agents generalize beyond software. In a recent essay, MIT professor Philip Isola argued that we may be entering the era of robot-use agents: general-purpose models that can control different robots, write policies, and learn new physical tasks with little or no robot-specific training. In this episode of Decoded, we're joined by the founders of @theWaddleLabs and @Robocurve , two of the startups whose work helped drive this realization. They're working at the frontier of using general-purpose models to control robots, and their recent demos helped inspire the growing conversation around robot-use agents. Together, we dig into the research behind that idea, from code-as-policies and vision-language-action models to the harnesses and evals needed to make these systems work in the real world. 00:00 — What Are Robot-Use Agents? 02:11 — From Vision-Language-Action Models to General LLMs 04:07 — The Bitter Lesson for Robotics 07:04 — How Coding Agents Learned to Control Robots 10:41 — How Robots Learn From Experience 14:22 — The Harness as a Form of Robot Intelligence 16:14 — Watching Astra Control a Robot 20:55 — Why General Models May Win in Robotics 26:05 — How Close Are General-Purpose Robots?
