Genesis AI unveils GENE-26.5, a robotic brain it says enables general-purpose robots to perform complex physical tasks with human-level dexterity.

By Leo Marchandon May 6 (Reuters) - Genesis AI, a French robotics startup backed by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt and telecoms tycoon Xavier Niel, on Wednesday unveiled an AI model designed to make robots more adaptable,

Genesis AI, a global full-stack robotics company, today announced GENE-26.5, the first robotic brain to give robots human-level physical manipulation capabilities. Alongside it, Genesis AI introduced a first-of-its-kind system to unlock unlimited amounts of data and train GENE-26.

General Autonomy has raised Rs. 32 crore in seed funding at a valuation of Rs. 280 crore. This new funding gives a strong push to the robotics startup as it bui

Meta bought humanoid startup Assured Robot Intelligence to beef up its AI models for robots, the company said.

Akhil Docca, head of robotics product marketing at Nvidia, on how the vendor is looking to accelerate physical AI adoption. Earlier this year, Nvidia declared it was partnering with the “global robotics ecosystem” to bring physical AI to factory floors.

Humanoid robots have moved beyond assembly lines. AI-powered machines are being trialed for legal research, financial analysis, and front-line customer service, pushing automation into work historically considered safe from displacement.

Genesis AI says its GENE-26.5 foundation model uses an advanced data engine and a proprietary robotic hand for new levels of dexterity.
