Google DeepMind released a new model, Gemini Robotics, that combines its best large language model with robotics. Plugging in the LLM seems to give robots the ability to be more dexterous, work from natural-language commands, and generalize across tasks—three things that robots have struggled to do until now.

Since the general AI agent Manus was launched earlier this month, it has spread online like wildfire. And not just in China, where it was developed by the Wuhan-based startup Butterfly Effect. It’s made its way into the global conversation, with influential voices in tech praising its performance. Some have even dubbed it “the second DeepSeek,” comparing it to the earlier AI model that took the industry by surprise for its unexpected capabilities as well as its origin. Manus claims to be the world's first general AI agent, using multiple AI models (such as Anthropic's Claude 3.5 Sonnet and fine-tuned versions of Alibaba's open-source Qwen) and various independently operating agents to act autonomously on a wide range of tasks. Despite all the hype, very few people have had a chance to use it. Currently, under 1% of the users on the wait list have received an invite code. But we got to put it to the test: https://trib.al/urKOCx7

Canadian robotruck startup Waabi says its super-realistic virtual simulation is now accurate enough to prove the safety of its driverless big rigs without having to run them for miles on real roads. The company uses a digital twin of its real-world robotrucks, loaded up with real sensor data, and measures how the twin's performance compares to that of real trucks on real roads. Waabi says they now match almost eactly. The company claims its approach is a better way to demonstrate safety than just racking up real-world miles, as many of its competitors do.
