HomeBody humanoid robot runs GPT-based long-horizon tasks in unseen kitchens with zero env-specific training
inductionheads · x · 2026-09-27

The robot performs long-horizon tasks in a previously unseen kitchen — tidying across rooms and retrieving remembered objects from ambiguous requests — without environment-specific training data or additional policy learning. A pointed rebuttal to the "stochastic parrot" jab.
