    Boston Dynamics' Spot cleans the house with Gemini

    Boston Dynamics just showcased its Spot robot tackling household chores like picking up shoes and soda cans, powered by Google's Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5 VLM. Instead of hardcoding complex state machines, engineers used conversational prompts and API tools to let the model plan and sequence actions dynamically. Why it matters: It shows how frontier visual reasoning can turn rigid industrial hardware into flexible, adaptive helpers with minimal custom logic.

    Google DeepMind brings thinking AI agents to robots

    Google DeepMind just unveiled Gemini Robotics 1.5 and Gemini Robotics-ER 1.5 to power physical AI agents. The ER model handles multi-step spatial reasoning and tool calling, while the 1.5 VLA model thinks before translating instructions into physical motor actions across different robot bodies. Developers can access the ER model today via the Gemini API in Google AI Studio.
