Research official 3 src. ~1 min

Zetta is a closed-loop embodied harness that evolves code-based runtime critics and recovery skills online while the base policy stays frozen, using three timescale-separated loops. With Z-Infra infrastructure it hits 90.8% on LIBERO-Pro and 93.6% on RoboCasa with an 11.1x inference speedup.

Why it matters

Top paper on HF Daily Papers for Aug 20 with 152 upvotes — establishes a practical recipe for letting embodied agents self-improve at execution time without retraining the base policy.
