This Saturday! We're cohosting @SaturdayRobotic's World Model Reading Club at the new Mission Robotics space. Keynote speaker: @TX_Leo_Wang, about one of the grail hunts of robot models: how to train polices on less than half an hour of human data. Luma link and prereading 👇

@saba_khalilnaji @mikisafr @savant_vc @newtheoryai @NorthstarRobots YES

@mikisafr @MissionRobotBay @savant_vc @newtheoryai @NorthstarRobots Woa cool! Can I bring Axol?

We're cohosting the The Embodied Metal Hackathon! Happening Jul 17-19 in San Francisco's Mission. Three days, lots of robots, and the best hackers across Physical AI.🤖 Hosts and sponsors: @MissionRobotBay, @savant_vc, @NewTheoryAI, and @NorthstarRobots, with compute from @modal. Space is limited, so apply early: luma.com/embodied-metal

@Scav has been deep in the weeds on preparing the first @newtheoryai hackathon, which I'm incredibly excited to be supporting! If you've ever wanted to get a robot to actually do a task, this is the hackathon to do it. Come for the robots, stay for the vibes

@DonJohnsonSays a society of @virtuals_io piloting robot would be cool, just saying

@MissionRobotBay 👀 very very cool!

Announcing: The Embodied Metal Hackathon! Happening Jul 17-19 in San Francisco's Mission. Three days in a factory loft with real robots, hacking to make them do something wild. We're packing the floor with the best founders, developers, and mad scientists across Embodied AI. If you'd rather make your AI *do* things – in the real world! – instead of just write about them, this event is for you. Hosts and sponsors: @MissionRobotBay, @savant_vc, @newtheoryai, and @NorthstarRobots, with compute from @modal. Space very limited, so apply early: luma.com/embodied-metal

@charles_irl If one hacks a human arm it's a problem, but if one hacks on a robot arm, it's a-ok!

it is time to hack on embodiment

Will drop in to see the robot projects everyone builds. Good for America. Good for San Francisco. We need many more efforts like this to keep up with China.

@Scav 💪🦾💪🦾💪🦾

San Francisco! I'm hosting a robotics hackathon for the most badass physical AI founders in the bay area. Want to hack a metal arm to do something weird? Every team will have one to jam with. Fancy a humanoid? We've got one. There's probably some awesome stuff you can do with the hands we have lying around. - ML/AI specialist and wish you could stick your neural nets inside a body? Come hack. - Stablemaster of the largest herd of coding agents this side of the Mississippi? Point your harness at our robots. - Can what you make be qualified as 'mad science'? I want to see it. - Physical AI founder who wants to put your product to the test on a new embodiment? I promise to help break it. We're putting special work into onboarding, a bootcamp, day-of support, and more than a few surprises. Most importantly, you'll be hacking alongside leading builders in Embodied AI. Special thanks to @savant_vc for manifesting the idea, to @modal for providing compute, to @NorthstarRobots for their wells of data, and @newtheoryai for the space, chalkboards, and stack. Space is super limited. My attention can be caught by engaging with this here tweet. I can't guarantee you'll get in if you comment something brilliant, but it will help your chances.

@artemmoskalev 💪🦾

Let’s build robots 🤘 Join our embodied metal hackathon in SF.

@davidmknigge Hopefully up to no good! And also good

🦾🔥Super exciting event set up in our sibling-space in the mission, realllllly looking forward to seeing what we can get up to with this hardware and compute 🚬🤖

Who we are: we're building the beating heart of Robotics and Embodied AI in San Francisco, centered in the Mission District where new robot startups land every day. Opened and curated by world model lab @newtheoryai, we have 8,000 square feet of a converted historic factory that's strikingly perfect for robot embodiments. Most importantly, we're building community. The single most important thing when building Physical AI is iteration speed. The faster you crush a full cycle, the faster you can ship an actual robot, model, 100-actuator-hand... etc. The best way to accelerate is to cram a bunch of the most brilliant and creative builders in one room. So we're doing that. If you've ever been kicked out of a WeWork for trying to bring a robot, then we want to work with you. Come thru: missionrobotics.ai
