Robot Models Built Natively for Control From Pretraining
Div_pradeep · x · 2026-07-12
A reshared post points out that many "video-action" robot models are built by bolting action models onto video generators originally designed for content creation. In contrast, LingBot-VA 2.0 is natively pretrained for robot control from the ground up. The author believes this architectural choice matters more than sheer parameter count.
