Walden Robotics says good evals are gold: judging robot policies on autonomy, interventions and transfer
adnothing · x · 2026-09-29
Walden Robotics argues that deciding whether a robot policy is production-ready requires evaluating task success alongside autonomy, interventions, speed and transfer.
Head of research Adrien Gaidon will detail the training and evaluation loop behind their general-purpose robots — and lessons from manufacturing deployments — at CoreWeave's Fully Connected event on Oct 1, with a technical session at 2pm PT and a live theCUBE interview at 4pm PT.
