GeneralistAI’s GEN-1 now spans hands and tools, while Any-ttach adds quick swapping

GeneralistAI says its GEN-1 embodied foundation model now supports a broad range of end effectors, from five-finger hands to specialized tools. The post is paired with a separate robot project, Any-ttach, described as a low-cost 3D-printed quick-swapping system for a one-DoF hand that generalizes across everyday tools.
The combined takeaway is a push toward more flexible robot manipulation: rather than training intelligence for one hand or one tool, the work aims at tool-changing systems and models that can transfer across effectors and tasks.
