JUST IN: US and China officially begin trade talks

Humanoid skills are about to make Claude Skills look like a joke Unitree just launched UNISTORE, an app store for humanoid robots. You can create, publish, buy, and deploy robot skills with one click across all their models. Just the motion library is live right now: basic moves, dances, martial arts, all available as free downloads. It's only out in China now (international coming soon). But the platform move is obvious: Unitree is building the iOS of physical robots. Now imagine what this looks like once it matures: Right now when you download a skill for Claude or Codex, it changes how your AI writes and works inside your computer. It's all just digital output, stuff that happens on a screen. But when you download a skill for a robot, it changes what a physical machine can do in your house, your warehouse, your office. One click and suddenly your robot knows how to make coffee. Another and it's running nightly inventory in a warehouse, sorting and logging without supervision. Another and it's harvesting ripe produce row by row from your garden, adjusting grip pressure for each fruit so nothing gets bruised. We're going from downloading apps for phones to downloading skills for AI to downloading physical capabilities for robots that operate in the real world. Very cool to think about. I made a visual of what this might look like in the future:
