Junfan Zhu 朱俊帆 ✈️ SIGGRAPH
This weekend I had the opportunity to serve as a judge for the Embodied Metal Hackathon at @MissionRobotBay in San Francisco. It was exciting to watch dozens of teams spend just one weekend building and deploying new robot capabilities on real hardware. • Robotics development is becoming dramatically faster. Teams collected data, trained policies, integrated VLMs, and deployed to robots—all within a couple of days. • The competitive advantage is increasingly the iteration loop rather than model size. The best teams combined fast data collection, rapid evaluation, reliable hardware integration, and continuous testing. • The gap between foundation models and physical deployment continues to shrink. Building embodied AI is becoming much more accessible as datasets, open-source models, inference infrastructure, and developer tooling mature. Huge thanks to @Scav (@MissionRobotBay), @thejesonlee (@savant_vc), @Solo__Tech, @newtheoryai, @rerundotio, @NorthstarRobots, @modal, @chasebrignac, @RiyaBaviskar, @ritwikpavan, @cashewmake2, @chrisrilling and all the organizers, mentors, sponsors, and participants for putting together such a high-energy event. It was inspiring to see so many builders pushing embodied AI forward! Looking forward to seeing many of these weekend prototypes evolve into real robotics startups. #PhysicalAI #EmbodiedAI #Robotics #AI #Startup #Hackathon

For a long time, we struggled to capture what our light actually feels like in person. This is the closest we’ve come.

We raised $5.5M to build an AI hardware interface that knows what you want. The world has changed: we talk to our devices, AI writes our emails, and self-driving cars pick us up. But how we interact with it all, touchscreens and keyboards, was designed for an age of browsing and searching. When we do hundreds of tasks a day, now even more with AI, every unnecessary decision, every step spent navigating instead of acting adds up to real cognitive load. We are building the Hardware Interface, designed for the age of AI. Private Pilot now open. Limited spots. aina.com

Some of my biggest purchases come from testimonials I've read on X. Authentic conversations is what makes X the most trusted source of information. Today we're releasing Mentions Boost—a brand new ad product on X. If your brand or account is organically mentioned on X, you can boost the post's reach. And we've designed it in a way that is transparent to users and preserves the authenticity of Timeline. While I don't work on ads day-to-day, this is one product I was excited to roll up my sleeves on. Now available for Premium Business accounts—with more updates to come.
