Excited to announce GR00T N1, the world’s first open foundation model for humanoid robots! We are on a mission to democratize Physical AI. The power of general robot brain, in the palm of your hand - with only 2B parameters, N1 learns from the most diverse physical action dataset

Introducing Gemini 2.5 Pro Experimental. The 2.5 series marks a significant evolution: Gemini models are now fundamentally thinking models. This means the model reasons before responding, to maximize accuracy -- and it’s our best Gemini model yet. Blog -

Rich Sutton just published his most important essay on AI since The Bitter Lesson: "Welcome to the Era of Experience" Sutton and his advisee Silver argue that the “era of human data,” dominated by supervised pre‑training and RL‑from‑human‑feedback, has hit diminishing returns;

1. We often observe power laws between loss and compute: loss = a * flops ^ b + c 2. Models are rapidly becoming more efficient, i.e. use less compute to reach the same loss But: which innovations actually change the exponent in the power law (b) vs change only the constant (a)?

📢 (1/16) Introducing PaTH 🛣️ — a RoPE-free contextualized position encoding scheme, built for stronger state tracking, better extrapolation, and hardware-efficient training. PaTH outperforms RoPE across short and long language modeling benchmarks arxiv.org/abs/2505.16381

Very excited for this one. We took a cautiously experimental view on NN optimizers, aiming to find something that just works. SPlus matches Adam within ~44% of steps on a range of objectives. Please try it out in your setting, or read below for how it works.
