Reka AI unveils Rho-1 — a single model that understands and creates text, images and video and controls a robot
Prepared by Sintelligent with the help of SI. Publication time restored from the build log. . Updated: .
Instead of a chain of several models, one that sees, reasons and acts at once; that makes it easier for robots and agents to work without delays.
The 19 billion-parameter model was trained from scratch: text, images and robot actions are represented as tokens in one context, without handing tasks off to separate specialized models. It generates video in real time and accepts new instructions without restarting. Training took about three months on 320 H100 accelerators. The model is available as a research preview.
