"π In episode #91 of Building Deep Tech I talk with @Harald CTO at @comma_ai where he and the team are building one of the most interesting autonomy efforts in the world: They work on end to end driving and generative world models is changing how small teams can compete with billion dollar labs. We talk about his path from electrical engineering in Belgium and Santa Barbara to joining comma as one of the earliest engineers. Harald explains how he helped turn a hacker project into a focused engineering team that ships reliable autonomy to thousands of real users. He walks me through"

"AI in robotics gets all the attention right now but sometimes the most interesting work is very practical. Viet built a small vision system that counts potatoes on a conveyor belt. No giant dataset. No huge model. Just a clear problem and a smart setup. He used Ultralytics ObjectCounter trained a tiny YOLO11 nano model and because there was no potato dataset he annotated a single frame with SAM X and trained from that. One frame. Still works across the whole video. It is a good reminder that useful AI in industry often looks like this. Focused. Lightweight. Solves a real task. If you work in"

"Robotics keeps hitting the same wall. Single task RL works but. it does not scale to hundreds of tasks or new embodiments. This new paper looks like a real step toward fixing that. The team introduces MMBench a benchmark with XXX tasks across many domains and robots and Newt a language conditioned world model trained online across all XXX tasks at once. The simple idea behind Newt: The model learns from demos to get the right priors It trains across many tasks through online interaction It uses language to ground the goal It adapts fast when a new task shows up What stood out to me: β

"Soooo satisfying to watch Most teams underestimate how much reliability work happens after the product is built. This photo shows a small detail that decides if your hardware survives real deployments: An IP67 seal applied directly on the board to protect against water dust and vibration. In the lab everything works. On the factory floor humidity oil dust temperature cycles and shock kill weak designs fast. If you want your products to stay alive in the field bring it to the factory. Your team needs to live in the factory. This is the difference between a prototype and a product that scales."

"Robotics feels upside down sometimes. We can get humanoids to kick and jump but opening a door with RGB is still a frontier. This new work from NVIDIA GEAR shows we are finally getting closer. DoorMan is a sim to real pipeline that learns the full door opening behavior from pixels only. No tele op. No real robot data. All sim.

"Engineer creates a plasma vortex in a magnetic field A small experiment that looks like sci-fi but it is real plasma physics. An engineer created a plasma vortex inside a magnetic field. You can see the ionized gas twist stabilize and form a rotating structure around the field lines. It is a simple demo but it shows something important: once you trap and shape plasma with magnetic fields you can study control stability and energy transfer in a very pure form.

"Diffusion and flow models work in robotics because they can model complex action distributions. But what if the real reason has nothing to do with generative modeling at all A new study puts this to the test. Key findings that stood out: β

"This is real time. You can see how stable the motion is. A system placing droplets between X nanoliter and X microliter inside a XX well plate with almost perfect repeatability. No shake. No drift. No overshoot. The robot keeps the tip on track even at this scale where tiny vibrations normally ruin the result.
