Autonomous AI coding agents teach robots to install GPUs and cut zip ties

AI coding agents, given a robotic lab and a generous token budget, autonomously devised training regimens that taught robots to cut zip ties and insert GPUs into motherboards. This capability was enabled by a new framework called ENPIRE, developed by researchers at NVIDIA's GEAR lab, Carnegie Mellon University, and UC Berkeley. The system allows AI to self-improve overnight, with Jim Fan of NVIDIA noting that the lab now continuously refines its skills without human intervention.
