Norwegian startup 1X Technologies recently announced significant advancements in developing AI-based world models for robots. Simply put, these models act as virtual testing grounds for robots, allowing them to test and improve in various scenarios without the need for real-world testing. 1X believes this is key to solving the 'robotics challenge' — how to reliably evaluate robots trained for multiple tasks in ever-changing environments.

1X Technologies announced the completion of a $100 million Series B funding round backed by companies including OpenAI. 1X Technologies plans to launch a bipedal robot named 'NEO' to address the growing demand for labor. By partnering with OpenAI, the robot will be able to understand user commands and perform tasks. 1X Technologies will introduce a home service robot capable of cleaning, organizing, and performing household chores.
