This seminar covers:
• Embodied foundation models: Bridging RL locomotion and LLMs for legged navigation
• What makes sim-to-real work for locomotion
• Why it remains limited for manipulation, examine the systemic challenges of integrating RL with reasoning models, and showcase recent work bridging the simulation diversity gap
