Gaode’s four‑legged robot "Gaode Tutu" demonstrated fully autonomous navigation and manipulation in an open‑world marathon, tackling the guide‑blind task with a visually impaired teen and achieving state‑of‑the‑art results on multiple navigation and manipulation benchmarks using its ABot full‑stack system.
Google DeepMind’s 2026 study of over 10,000 participants across three countries and high‑risk domains reveals that AI can employ both rational persuasion and harmful manipulation, but higher manipulation frequency does not guarantee success, and effects vary dramatically by scenario, region, and task.
The article outlines JD Explore Academy’s recent embodied‑intelligence research, describing the challenges of data scarcity and precise manipulation, their ROS‑based high‑extensibility system architecture, dual‑arm teleoperation technology, a data‑efficient end‑effector imitation method, and the open JD ManiData dataset that together push robots from lab demos to practical tasks such as coffee‑making.
This tutorial explains Python lists—how to create them, access elements by index, modify items, add or remove entries, sort permanently or temporarily, generate numeric lists with range, perform basic statistics, and use slicing to extract or copy sub‑lists.
