Embodied Turing Machine: exploring how far code-only policies (COAP) can go
liuziwei7 · x · 2026-10-14
A new research framing treats the embodied world as an 'Embodied Turing Machine' — the robot is the tape, while environment state and rules are the policy. The work systematically explores Code-Only-As-Policy (COAP): how far can pure code as a policy go, challenging the neural-network-centric paradigm in robot learning.
