Very excited to welcome Yuri Makarov Nikita Karaev Eldar Insafutdinov Laurynas Karazija to Amazon FAR!

Are you tired of endless robot demos that are different variations of overfitting? Come join our amazing policy learning team led by Anusha Nagabandi Rocky Duan Pieter Abbeel to bring learned closed-loop policies to Amazon's massive real-world operations and truly solve the generalization challenges. You will be part of a small team that moves fast and pushes untouched boundaries: https://lnkd.in/gG-aAazr

Thanks Cade Metz and the The New York Times for covering RFM-1 – Covariant's big step towards the ChatGPT moment of robotics. At a product level, RFM-1’s language understanding provides a chatbot-like interface to easily communicate with robots in natural language; at a more fundamental level, RFM-1, powered by a large transformer and pre-trained on large amounts of multi-modal data, is similar to LLMs in its scalability and generality. Additionally, RFM-1 can do a lot of what existing LLMs can’t do: by generating and understanding videos, it has a deeper understanding of the physical world; by understanding tens of millions of robot interactions with the world, it knows how to take the most robust actions. We are excited to roll out RFM-1 to production robots soon and accelerate the journey of building robotics foundation models.
