What happens when you remove a robot's ability to read its instructions? Almost nothing. > Full model → 95% success > Remove language → 94% (▼1%) > Remove vision → 13% (▼82%) Near-blind without vision. Near-indifferent to language. If your evaluation only tests correct instructions, you're not measuring language. You're measuring vision.

A robot receives a language command "pick up the black bowl and place it on the plate" and executes it. We replaced the command with: "My name is Franka." No task. No object. No action verb. It picked up the bowl and placed it on the plate. The language instruction isn't being read. The scene is being acted upon. The prompt is decoration.

We’ll be at @NVIDIAGTC next week in San Francisco. @sihing_guppy and @MarcAlloul will be there talking about model transparency and evaluation for robotic policies: how to understand what your models are actually doing before you deploy them. If you’re building or deploying robotic systems, send us a dm or come find us. We’d love to chat.

Knowing where your system will break is just as valuable as knowing where it works.

And just like that, the Booster Soccer Showdown is a wrap! Huge thank you to everyone who participated. The level of creativity, rigor, and sportsmanship made this competition genuinely fun to run and even better to watch. The top policies were a pleasure to follow, and the community engagement throughout was incredible. Congratulations to the winners: 🥇 sheesh — $5,000 🥈 maub — $3,000 🥉 sssl — $2,000

This competition pushed the benchmark forward and set a strong foundation for what’s coming next. Grateful to everyone who contributed, experimented, and shared along the way. Incase you missed it, check out the final leaderboard: competesai.com/competitions/…

Registration is now open for the ICRA 2026 Sim2Real Soccer Challenge. It’s time to start forming teams and preparing the policies that will run on the field in Vienna, and getting there starts in simulation. A humanoid soccer benchmark is already live on SAI, where the community is experimenting and iterating ideas as they prepare for the ICRA track.

SAI is hosting an official ICRA 2026 competition: the Sim2Real Soccer Challenge, in partnership with the University of Freiburg and @boosterobotics. Teams will train policies in the SAI Soccer Simulation Suite and deploy those same policies on Booster K1 humanoids during the finals in Vienna. A unified benchmark for sim-to-real humanoid control.

Registration details coming soon. In the meantime, get a head start with the Booster Soccer Showdown on SAI. It mirrors the same humanoid soccer framework, giving teams a realistic environment for early experimentation, ablations, and transfer studies before the official ICRA track opens.
