A slide from a CoRL 2026 talk went viral: the paper shipped with no code released, but Chong Zhang (ETH Zurich) reproduced the implementation from the paper in just 2 hours 28 minutes on Oct 21. Over the next 20 days (Oct 20 – Nov 9), 237 repos related to it appeared on GitHub. The poster credits Claude's coding power — a striking grassroots demonstration of AI-assisted reproduction.
