Fine-tuned local models on Orin 64GB power beer-serving autonomous robots
ChrisRackauckas · x · 2026-10-18
Chris Rackauckas says his team is fine-tuning local models to run on Orin 64GB compute heads for autonomous robots that are already serving beer and managing a gaming cafe on an island. Onboard tuned models deliver much lower latency — a hands-on demo of edge-side fine-tuning for embodied robotics, with a "software factory" architecture and testing results offered via DM.
