A teenager learns to drive in a few dozen hours That works because they've spent their whole life watching things fall and crash into each other Many robots start with none of that and learn each task from thousands of repeated demos, which the Odyssey team calls brute force Odyssey-3 from @odysseyml learns more like the teenager It's a world model trained on a massive amount of visual data from the real world, so it learns cause and effect and how people behave first Then a few hours of data from a specific machine is enough to teach it the controls In the preview, one model powers a humanoid, controls robot arms, drives a car, flies a drone, plays video games and trains other AIs They call it a physics agent, and it goes public in the coming weeks If the approach holds up, the payoff goes way past demos Machines could take over jobs that put people at risk and help with the everyday tasks that get hard with age or disability I'll be watching how it does once people outside the team get their hands on it
