Gemini Robotics 2.5 follow-up: humanoid task success rate reaches 96% in a real car factory (report)
Announced November 10, 2026
Verified (fact)
AI Times reported that Google DeepMind announced Gemini Robotics 2.5, a VLA (vision-language-action) model, on its official blog on the 10th. According to the report, the model raised humanoid robots' task success rate in a real car factory to 96%. Compared with the previous model, hand movements are more precise and tasks are faster, and the latest AI models were also used to train the robots. The excerpt does not specify the types of tasks or the measurement conditions.
Needs fact-check (claim)
Google DeepMind said it improved task range, speed of learning new motions, accuracy and safety (as reported).
Why it matters (interpretation)
Because this success rate comes from an actual production line rather than a lab demo, it is a useful reference for judging whether humanoids can be deployed on site. However, which tasks were measured and under what conditions still needs to be checked.
