We compared Pi 0.5 and SmolVLA on LIBERO-Spatial under photometric stress tests. The result is hard to ignore. Pi 0.5 stays close to baseline across nearly every perturbation, even at high severity....

Previously, we asked what happens when the camera lies. Now we ask something different: What happens when the instruction lies? This post shifts entirely to the language channel. In embodied systems...

Most robustness discussions in machine learning start from a convenient fiction: The camera is a faithful observer of the world. In practice, that assumption is wrong. In embodied systems, it’s often...

Michael Lewis’s Flash Boys stayed with people because it exposed a gap between the market people thought they were trading and the one they were actually deployed into. Brad Katsuyama was trying to...

Robustness only becomes visible once the world stops behaving as expected. In deployment, inputs are imperfect, execution is delayed, hardware behaves inconsistently, and environments differ in ways...

We started with a simple question: how do you create a fair way to evaluate AI systems? At SAI, we built a benchmarking platform that provides a level playing field for testing policies against...
