Robot manipulation datasets have grown far slower than the models trained on them, mostly because collection stays closed and centralized. Expert operators gather demonstrations on lab hardware, process them offline, and ship a fixed benchmark that never grows again. A research team from Axis Robotics, UC Berkeley, Georgia Tech, NTU… is proposing a different shape…

OpenBMB has released MiniCPM5-2B, the second checkpoint in the MiniCPM5 series and the follow-up to MiniCPM5-1B. It is a dense causal language model with 2,516,756,480 parameters, of which 1,981,982,720 sit outside the embeddings. It uses 42 layers, grouped-query attention with 16 query heads and 2 key/value heads, and a native context window of 131,072 tokens….

AI is rewriting the world and, at the same time, inventing a whole new language to describe how it’s doing it. Sit in on any product meeting, pitch, or panel these days, and you’ll hear people toss around LLMs, RAG, RLHF — and, as of last week, terms like “opaque recurrence,” the reasoning technique in…
