Large language models (LLMs) and multimodal reasoning systems are rapidly expanding beyond the data center. Automotive and robotics developers increasingly want to run conversational AI agents, multimodal perception, and high-level planning directly on the vehicle or robot – where latency, reliability, and the ability to operate offline matter most. While many existing LLM and vision language…

AI‑native organizations increasingly face scaling challenges as agentic AI workflows drive context windows to millions of tokens and models scale toward trillions of parameters. These systems currently rely on agentic long‑term memory for context that persists across turns, tools, and sessions so agents can build on prior reasoning instead of starting from scratch on every request.

Generalist robot policies must operate across diverse tasks, embodiments, and environments, requiring scalable, repeatable simulation-based evaluation. Setting up large-scale policy evaluations is tedious and manual. Without a systematic approach, developers need to build high-overhead custom infrastructure, yet task libraries remain limited in complexity and diversity.

Building an agent is more than just “call an API”—it requires stitching together retrieval, speech, safety, and reasoning components so they behave like one cohesive system. Each layer has its own interface, latency constraints, and integration challenges, and you start to feel them as soon as you move beyond a simple prototype. In this tutorial, you’ll learn how to build a voice-powered RAG…

Autonomous vehicle (AV) research is undergoing a rapid shift. The field is being reshaped by the emergence of reasoning-based vision–language–action (VLA) models that bring human-like thinking to AV decision-making. These models can be viewed as implicit world models operating in a semantic space, allowing AVs to solve complex problems step-by-step and to generate reasoning traces that mirror…
