Sergey Levine: The Real Bottleneck in Humanoid Robotics Isn't Hardware—It's Decision-Making

Sergey Levine explains why robotics must prioritize decision-making over hardware, leverage prior knowledge instead of tabula rasa learning, and build diverse real-world data flywheels before scaling—highlighting that the field hasn't yet found its 'Transformer moment' for reliable generalization.

Why Anthropomorphic Robots? Human Video Data Helps a Humanoid Beat Nvidia GR00T

The article explains how the Human-as-Humanoid approach uses human‑video‑derived action supervision to train a 60‑degree humanoid robot, PrimeU, achieving zero‑sample performance on tasks such as pouring, bagging and cup stacking, and outperforming Nvidia’s GR00T platform across seven benchmark tasks.
