Show the Robot Once. It Tries the Zipper.

Generalist AI published GEN-1.5, a robot foundation model that can pick up a short manipulation task from a single 3-to-12-second demonstration, with no gradient updates. “Physical prompting” into a 30-second context window; 100 Hz actions. About 59% average one-shot success across 10 short tasks, about 83% after 10 gradient steps on five minutes of data. Emerged after more than eight months of pretraining. Can chain two demos; sometimes improvises tools. Commercial focus remains GEN-1.
