Is Your Model a Top Model? Talk at Robo House, Menlo Park

Vladimir Yakunin talks at Robo House in Menlo Park on evaluating physical AI: how to tell a better robot policy from a worse one, and what that takes on real hardware.

The talk opens with the four traps behind most robotic model comparisons and the four principles that close them, then shows them at work on our Franka DROID rig: five policies run blind in the same rounds, 21–25 September 2026.
