With Gemini Robotics 2.5, robots can “perform significantly more tasks with greater performance and dexterity,” according to Carolina Parada, DeepMind’s head of robotics. The model lets robots combine a “number” of skills, including “advanced tool use, complex manipulation of deformables, and handling delicate objects with finesse,” Parada says.

One in five people have experienced this frightening state – and the Harvard neuroscientist Baland Jalal has dedicated his career to studying it. Could it be a portal to a deeper understanding of the mind?
The new model is up to twice as successful at some tasks.
‘Understanding and simulating the world is a crucial aspect of building AGI,’ says Google DeepMind as it previews its Genie 4 world model.
