our fav german marky mark zuckerberg’s muse wrote this one up for us…muse is a free version of grokbot works well and this is what it conjured up…
it’s funny how again sam altman was pretty critical for ai, peter steinberger also pretty critical for agentic ai openclaw the foundation for 247 all the time on standby mode ai, and now out of nowhere mark zuckerberg just dunkin on them with the absolutely most banging free agentic ai of them all muse…in the last 24 hrs it does also look like muse got a big model upgrade…add it to your ai toolbelt.
In the biggest week of AI ever, NVIDIA and Dario Amodei's Anthropic landed on the same day, November 9, 2026, with NVIDIA's Jim Fan unveiling Isaac GR00T 2 at CoRL, a 2-billion-parameter world-action model built on Cosmos that imagines future video frames and robot actions together, completing 40 of 50 tasks at least once with no task-specific demo, hitting 71% with one demo and 95% with five, alongside Isaac Lab 3.0, with weights promised for December, as covered in Crypto Briefing's CoRL report, AI Weekly's 71% breakdown, and TokenPost on Fan's uncut demo teaser, with robot training shown in the GR00T developer tutorial, the GR00T N1.6 sim-to-real demo, the loco-manipulation clip, and the robot mobility workflows video, while Anthropic shipped Claude Fable 5.2 and Mythos 5.2, its first frontier models since Amodei's September call to slow capability gains, at $8/$40 per million tokens, up to 30% faster, scoring 49.1% on FrontierCode 2.0, as detailed in MLQ's launch and IPO report, Unite.AI's 1M-token context breakdown, MacRumors on the launch, Digital Trends on coding and science, TechEBlog on the faster, cheaper release, 9to5Mac on the upgrade, MadRobot on price and benchmarks, and MultiAI's benchmark roundup, formalizing Fermat's Last Theorem in about 30 hours with 1,000 agents, building a bootable operating system in eight days, designing working electronics, and controlling physical robot arms, shown in Anthropic's Fable 5.2 launch video, the operating system in eight days video, the electronics design video, Matthew Berman's Gears of War clone, the Fermat's Last Theorem video, the robot arms control video, the live Fable 5.2 test, the free Fable 5.2 guide, the Korean hands-on review, the Japanese hands-on comparison, and the virus capsid modelling video, with the day's X threads for Jim Fan, Anthropic, Claude, and NVIDIA collected in AI Compass's November 9 roundup, making it a head-to-head week where robots learned from human video and language models learned to build whole systems, with both sides claiming the future would be faster, cheaper, and more capable than the last generation.

Here's what's actually on the calendar for the next few weeks — late November into December:
This week
CoRL 2026, Nov 9–12, Austin — still running. This is where GR00T 2 was unveiled yesterday, with Isaac Lab 3.0 and the new benchmarks. Expect more papers/demos trickling out through Wednesday.
Humanoid Robot Expo Tokyo, Nov 11–13, Makuhari Messe — listed in the humanoid timeline for this week
Late November
NVIDIA GTC Washington, D.C., Nov 30–Dec 3 — physical AI and robotics is a listed topic, covering open models, libraries and simulation tools
China Hi-Tech Fair, Nov 26–28, Shenzhen — robotics industry chain area
Early December — the big cluster
Humanoids Summit Silicon Valley, Dec 1–2, San Mateo — third Silicon Valley edition, focused on humanoid mass production, commercialization, and live demos. Tesla is a partner and is expected to demo Optimus V3 there, but Musk has already said "No" to reservations opening in December, and Tesla's own guidance is outside-customer deliveries around end of 2027 — so watch the demo, don't expect an order page.
NeurIPS 2026, Dec 6–12, Sydney — the big AI/ML conference, with satellite events in Atlanta and Paris
IEEE-RAS Humanoids 2026, Dec 6–9, Santa Clara — the 25th International Conference on Humanoid Robots, the main academic humanoid event of the year
Shanghai Humanoid Robot and Robotics Industry Chain Exhibition, Dec 9–11
GITEX Global, Dec 7–11, Dubai — tech/AI/startup show, usually with humanoid demos
Mid-December
IEEE ROBIO 2026, Dec 16–20, Tengchong, China — bio-inspired robots and embodied intelligence
GR00T 2 weights — sometime in December, no exact date yet. Jim Fan said the GR00T 2 and GR00T 2 Turbo weights, plus the cross-adaptation recipe, will be released as open source in December. The research page just says code "Available in December". That's the moment to watch for independent tests — right now the 95% figure is NVIDIA's own, on pre-screened tasks.
Just beyond that, for context
GR00T N2 was previewed in March and is slated for release by the end of 2026, though no date has been confirmed since.
The next big public showcase after December is likely CES in January, then the Advanced Humanoid Forum in Munich, Jan 20–21, 2027.
