JunLi Ren and collaborators showed a humanoid that skips the usual fast motor-policy layer: an agent-written harness links high-level reasoning (System 2) to low-level control (System 0), plus one human video demonstration. There is no VLA or world-action model and no task-specific training in simulation; it was...
