    Agibot Releases Heavy-Load Embodied Robot Genie G2 Max, Dual-Arm Peak Payload 50kg

    Agibot has launched the safety-standard heavy-load embodied robot Genie G2 Max, with a single-arm payload of 20kg, a dual-arm rated payload of 40kg, and a peak of up to 50kg. Its arm repeat positioning accuracy is ≤±0.5mm, and it targets scenarios such as depalletizing and palletizing, material transfer, and production line feeding. The product is designed to be compatible with existing production lines, with a vertical working range of 0.1m to 2.5m. It supports single-side depalletizing and palletizing and pallet placement against walls, and features dual-battery hot swapping and autonomous recharging to support 7×24-hour operation. On the Qiyuan T1 production line, the G2 Max is responsible for transporting joint components, matching the takt time of one unit rolling off the line every 2.5 minutes, and natively adapts to the Genie Studio 2.0 embodied operation platform.

    Cloudflare Opens Public Beta of Auto Router via AI Gateway, Selecting Models by Request Classification

    Cloudflare has opened a public beta of Auto Router in AI Gateway; after setting the model to cloudflare/auto, a classifier selects a model for each request. Routing has two stages: first, a candidate pool is filtered by request format, credentials, billing, and quota; then a multi-head classification model on Workers AI scores the request across 14 task categories and rates it from 1 to 5 on four dimensions—complexity, ambiguity, risk, and dependence on prior context—combining benchmark results according to "utility = expected quality - adaptive cost penalty." Classification reads only the most recent few turns, capped at 8 KiB of text; responses return cf-aig-routed-model and cf-aig-routing-reason for post-hoc auditing, and request headers can also be used to restrict candidate models. The beta is free and does not yet support WebSockets.
