Finn: Physical Intelligence adapted its model to an unseen third-party robot
“We're also able to apply that same recipe to robots at other companies. This is a robot that I've actually never seen in person before. They collected data. They sent the data to us. We fine tuned our model on their data. We actually didn't even know exactly h…”

Finn: Human video data is constrained by robot-human embodiment gaps
“Alternatively, maybe we look at data from YouTube, which has also a massive data source and many videos of humans doing tasks that can be useful for training robots. But at the same time, we don't learn how to write by watching other people write, and we don't…”

Finn: Scale is necessary but not sufficient for open-world robotics models
“And so I think the lesson here is that scale is necessary for developing these models that can generalize in open world conditions, but they're subordinate to actually solving the problem. So you need scale, but it's not sufficient for the entire problem.”

Finn: Industrial automation data lacks behavioral diversity for general robotics
“So for example, we might look at data from industrial automation and you get tons and tons of data of robots doing tasks over and over again like this, but the sort of data isn't going to allow robots to go into disaster zones or to make a sandwich or to bag g…”

Finn: Pre-training and curated fine-tuning unlocked robotic laundry folding
“And this was actually to take some inspiration from the world of language modeling to actually instead of just training a policy on all of our data, can we pre-train on all the data? And then fine tune on a highly, on a curated, consistent, high quality set of…”

Finn: Reinforcement Learning Outperforms Pure Imitation Learning in Robotics
“I think that reinforcement learning can play a very large role in it actually, in post-training. I think that online data from the robots which reinforcement learning allows you to use, Can allow robots to have a much higher success rate and also be faster tha…”

Finn: Solving robotics applications traditionally requires building separate companies from scratch
“If you want to truly solve a robotics application, you essentially need to build an entire company around that application. Ah, you need to build a different company for logistics, for wet lab automation, For robots and kitchens, for surgical robots, and so on…”

Finn: Physical Intelligence Has Not Struggled to Raise Capital
“We ourselves haven't had a lot of challenge with fundraising, and I think that a lot of robotics companies recently have also done a great job and found that there's actually a lot of excitement around this sort of technology, because I think things are actual…”
