DeepMind reveals Gemini Robotics 2.5 and open safety benchmark "ASIMOV-jailbreak"

Google DeepMind has unveiled Gemini Robotics 2.5, an AI platform that significantly improves robot dexterity and task completion, achieving a 96% success rate in real-world factory settings. This new version, which includes Gemini Embodied Reasoning and Gemini Robotics, aims for general-purpose robots capable of handling diverse tasks, though closing the gap to human-level reliability remains a challenge. DeepMind also introduced an open-source safety benchmark, "ASIMOV-jailbreak," to prepare for robots operating alongside humans.
