A robot can adapt mid-task after its hand is swapped
A demo from GeneralistAI shows a model continuing the same rollout after the robot hand is changed partway through the task.
- The model recognizes the new tool and finds a new trajectory and contact strategy to finish the job.
- The result suggests mixed training data can help the model condition its behavior on the hand in front of it.
- The broader implication is a more general understanding of shapes, contact surfaces, and which actuation strategy should follow.
