Zhao Xing, an assistant professor at Tsinghua University and CTO of Xinghai Tu, was honored with the Early Career Keynote at CoRL 2026 for his work in robotics. He presented a "clock theory" to address the time-delay issues when integrating large language models like GPT-6 Astra into robots. Zhao argued that current benchmarks for embodied AI do not account for real-world time constraints, leading to inflated success rates when models are directly controlling robots. His research proposes a hierarchical system where different AI
