NVIDIA's Jim Fan: VLA and remote operation dead, World Action Models rise

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

NVIDIA's Jim Fan declared the end of Visual-Language-Action (VLA) models and remote operation in robotics, advocating for World Action Models (WAM) as the new paradigm. Fan proposed that WAMs, inspired by Large Language Models (LLMs), will leverage next-state prediction and action fine-tuning for robot control. He emphasized a shift towards using first-person human video data as the primary training source, moving away from the limitations of remote operation data collection. AI
