A quoted robotics benchmark says π0/0.5 from Physical Intelligence wins overall, with NVIDIA Robotics’ GR00T not far behind.
It also notes that diffusion and ACT, the only non-VLA policies trained from scratch, are competitive with MolmoACT and SmolVLA. But the benchmark author cautions that headline scores do not tell the whole story, implying that capability comparisons across robot policies are still incomplete.
