Did you get a chance to try the Kaya Toast too? Btw I spent 5 months doing an RL research internship there last year and made a list of must-visit spots for when my parents visited. Happy to share the list if you’re interested/have time 🫡

We have an amazing lineup of speakers, who will share their experience in deploying RL for power systems, industrial processes, nuclear fusion, logistics and more!
Consider submitting!

One of the courses I'm taking this sem revolves around this book, & I love it so far. It really provides new perspectives & approaches to understanding which robotics problems are solved and which aren't (my background is in RL so forgive me if the content is already common knowledge to people).

True. I imagine a "reviewer mentor" just means triple the work, including read your assigned papers, mentees' assigned papers AND mentees' reviews to give feedback.

Do you mind sharing whaf were the obvious reason? I think it's a very good format to follow

😭 (r we pretending that we didnt know?)
I remember there was one video in which they admitted that most shots take between 1-10 trials I think (the one where they dropped a basketball from an airplane took 2 iirc). It's still a surprisingly low number of trials compared to the avr person doing it.

Except the fact that Dude Perfect admitted they only posted their perfect shots.

Many people just didn't

Reminds me of the time I heard about people implementing progress bars to make users "feel" the process is faster. I think these cases can be referred to as examples of consumer behavior bias, things that are there to make people feel good :)
I haven't try o1 pro so no idea about its performance yet

I had similar thoughts when reading about Jibo's shutdown
Cloud-based makes sense for keeping costs down, especially when rolling new updates. Really hope they maintain a local version or a way to keep things running too, since robots can bring much more emotional bonds than other old brick hardware

Curious to see the learning process 👀
