A year ago, when I left Tesla Optimus to co-found Mondo, I made a promise to my son: I would build him a little robot buddy — something like the robot friends from our bedtime stories, but real.
At the time, it was not really a product statement. It was a father’s promise to a little boy I love more than anything — a boy who loved stories about a child and his robot companion. Over the past year, that promise slowly became real — Beni the robot.
Beni follows you, films you in 4K, moves across different terrain, jumps over obstacles, captures moments from new angles, and helps turn your clips into highlights. We designed it for families, pets, creators, athletes, and anyone who wants a robot that feels less like a gadget and more like a little sidekick.
I’m deeply grateful to the Mondo team for turning countless prototypes, failures, late-night tests, and difficult tradeoffs into something people can finally meet. Although we have only just launched on Kickstarter, this world-class team is already deep in the “production hell”, and we expect to ship the product in the next few months.
I’m also especially thankful to my family. Building hardware takes time, patience, and sacrifice from the people closest to you. Beni would not exist without their love and support. My son often visits our office and plays with Beni. Watching them together has reminded me why I started this journey in the first place. I do not want him to grow up thinking of robots only as distant machines in labs, factories, or videos. I want him to grow up in a world where robots can feel close, friendly, safe, and present — something he can play with, trust, and remember as part of his childhood.
For the robotics community: Beni may look cute, but it is a serious robotics product. We used reinforcement learning to train Beni’s motion policies, with NVIDIA Isaac Lab and Google MuJoCo as part of our training and validation pipeline. Under the playful exterior are real robotics problems in locomotion, perception, control, and sim-to-real transfer. The lessons we are learning from Beni also directly inform our future humanoid product. Different form factor, same belief: advanced robotics should not feel distant or abstract. It should become close, present, and part of everyday life.
For my son, Beni began as a promise. For Mondo Robotics, it is just the first step.

@yacineMTB Lol how? Capitalism concentrates wealth among a few individuals

@mariannehere I'm 21 and I feel like I'm playing catch up with my peers but given I only just got a laptop last year, I'd say I'm doing ok
English

@Yuchenj_UW Well, they're basically in the same league and some tasks can be done by all three which raises the cost question
English

@simi_97k I want to say its training data since they sometimes buy from the same data providers but the specificity is weird
English

@0xadarshsingh Lol something must be wrong cuz there are people with far less credentials are they're doing well
English

@JunaidAckroyd They're both marketing their products. They both run a for profit company after all

My 2026 so far :
> Was doing low level/systems programming since last year but this time went all in, all due to curiosity.
> Contributed to some big opensource projects like Prometheus, Ceph, CRIU, Rizin
> Rejected from LFX term 1
> Rejected from GSOC
> Gsoc mentor offered informal mentorship (@Ceph)
> Got into LFX term 2 (@lfdecentralized)
> Started learning GPU programming and ML infra
> Got 10-15 interviews at big startups all from cold emails, learnt a bunch from the interviews
> Joined a SF based startup (@luceboxai)
> Got followed by some really cool people here on X whom I look up to!
very grateful. and it's only been half a year, much more to do.

@ericliuof97 I think architecture matters more before scaling and data. They also tried to scale previous architectures but they just weren't as performant

@adityab29_ Looks like this eval just struggles with Codex integration
There’s no way GPT-5.5 in Claude Code outperformed GPT-5.5 in Codex, especially not by this amount

@irvinxyz Why does it take a 360 view of the clothes before folding it tho lol

@CaptainInsightX Infinite Claude and chatgpt, its 2009 I can build and ship fast and impress people

@rickasaurus I'm currently at 34 leet code solved. How many is good enough?

I swallowed my pride and did it all including leetcode hards, semi-employed for six months, then got a job at a MANGO by being able to list all of the different kinds of joins
