NVIDIA open-sources ASPIRE, which cut Rubik's Cube turn time from 17 to 3.1 minutes in three episodes
NVIDIA's GEAR lab released ASPIRE v1.0 as open source on Oct 16, adding real-robot results to a framework that lets a coding agent write and refine robot control code and keep validated fixes as text skills. Across three episodes on a bimanual YAM robot, execution time per Rubik's Cube face turn fell from 17 minutes to 3.1 minutes and tokens per turn fell 82%.
