RT-2 — Vision-Language-Action model.
hardAnswer
- Brohan et al. 2023 (Google).
- Fine-tune vision-language model (PaLI-X / PaLM-E) to output action tokens for robotics.
- Trained on mix of internet VQA data + robot trajectories.
- Enables (1) generalizing web-scale semantic knowledge to robots ('bring me the extinct animal' → picks toy dinosaur).
- (2) Emergent chain-of-thought for manipulation.
- Foundation of VLA (Vision-Language-Action) models — RT-2, OpenVLA, Pi-0.
Check yourself — multiple choice

- Fine-tune VLM (PaLI-X / PaLM-E) to output action tokens; train on internet VQA + robot trajectories; generalizes web-scale semantics to robots + emergent CoT manipulation; VLA foundation
- Same as CLIP
- Not real
