MPC vs RL Experiment Shows DRL Can Master Precise Robot Control
A developer used Codex to auto-generate a 1.6M-token MPC vs RL experiment for end-effector tracking, finding a 1000Hz RL torque policy matches torque MPC with faster inference, proving DRL can do precise control with the real bottleneck being hardware.
