Key quotes
· 2 pulled"For a language model, the difference between fast and slow generation is a satisfied or annoyed user; for a vision-language-action model (VLA), it could be the difference between a robot handing you a hot coffee or spilling it in your lap."
"While VLAs have achieved promising results in open-world generalization, they can be slow to run."
