Robot Utility Models: the coolest thing you never heard about (yet)

the stick

Robot Utility Models, or RUM for short, are a new area of research and development for the advancement of AI training for robotics. RUM was created by Lerrel Pinto, an assistant professor of computer science, and a team at at New York University.

This open-source research project is attempting to generalize training for robots when you don’t want to have to train thousands of examples of a task, and then have the operation succeed in zero-shot situations or unseen environments.
