π₀ is open sourced - now all you need is a setup

Many of you asked for code &amp; weights for π₀, we are happy to announce that we are releasing  π₀ and pre-trained checkpoints in our new openpi repository! We tested the model on a few public robots, and we include code for you to fine-tune it yourself. https://t.co/1peLDU9XJ6

$30k to never fold laundry sounds ever again... reasonable!

Lets hypothetically say your time is worth $100/hr

You fold your laundry ~1 hour a week

There are ~50 weeks in a year 

~6 years 

That’s $30k

A bit surprised, how do they justify the cost?

Their Locobot was $5K, with one Roomba-like base, one arm, LiDAR and RealSense, NCU, and even goodies like a PlayStation 4 controller. Steep difference. Perhaps the bulk of the cost is some nifty compute.

Scientist and engineer interested in Life.

Work on (GOF)AI, Agriculture, Biology, Energy, Robotics, Space---all topics climate-aware.

They include in those solutions a “high performance laptop” (no spec), probably meaning with a recent Nvidia board. That would add like 2-3K to something like Locobot. Still far from $30K.

Noticing any expensive sensor? Or perhaps the gravity compensator (no idea of price range) ?
