In a new research report on GR00T 2, Nvidia introduces a new AI foundation model designed to shorten this process. Nvidia's new AI model GR00T 2 is designed to teach robots new tasks without laborious teleoperation (a person controlling a machine from somewhere else). NVIDIA is a semiconductor company based in Santa Clara, and its products and services include software. Instead, the system transfers human hand movements from videos to robotic arms, trained on about 400,000 hours of video footage. Success rates still vary widely, though, ranging from 10 to 80 percent depending on the task.
