Gemini 4 Argon scores 87% on embodied reasoning but takes 52 minutes per real-arm task

Google made Gemini 4 Argon globally available on Oct 13 and grouped its robotics uses into robot control, Real2Sim, physical understanding, and research and self-improvement. Artificial Analysis's AA-Robotics v0.1 scored Argon 55.3 out of 100 driving a real arm on eight tabletop tasks, about 100 times slower than a person, while Physical Intelligence opened an API beta the same day for fine-tuning its π0 and π0.5 models on Pi's infrastructure.
