Runway says its world action model Praxis-1 dramatically outperforms frontier LLMs on robot control: driving an arm 15.6x faster than GPT-6 Astra on the same station and tasks, at 51x lower cost per completed task.
It also adapts from very little data — under 30 minutes of teleoperated demos was enough to succeed in all 15 simulated trials on Noble Machines' robot.
