BRISA Events has 4 upcoming tech events on hackevents in Berlin. Topics: AI / ML, Robotics and Hardware. 3 earlier events are listed below.
This week we look at Long-WAM: Scaling the Context of World-Action Models (Huang et al., 2026) from NVIDIA, MIT, HKU and UCSD, with code and model checkpoints released openly. A robot that only sees the current frame can’t tell whether the cup in front of it is moving, or how far along the task it already is. More visual history sounds like the obvious fix, but history costs time and a robot that
Today, we have a special one: Denis Shcherba presents his own paper, Estimate, Don’t Imitate: Reusing Differentiable State-Based Policies for Visuomotor Control (Shcherba et al., 2026), written right here in Berlin with Marc Toussaint (TU Berlin) and Wojciech Samek (Fraunhofer HHI). A rare chance to ask the author directly why things were done the way they were. In simulation a robot can cheat: it
This Monday we are looking at VLAW: Iterative Co-Improvement of Vision-Language-Action Policy and World Model (Guo, Lee, Shi, Chen, Liang & Finn, 2026) from Stanford and Tsinghua, presented at ICML 2026. Two weeks ago, Long-WAM built prediction into the policy itself. VLAW keeps policy and world model separate and asks whether each can make the other better. Improving a robot policy through practi
To close November we look at RoboStriker: Hierarchical Decision-Making for Autonomous Humanoid Boxing (Yin et al., 2026) from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. Most humanoid research is about the robot and the world: walking, balancing, picking things up. Boxing adds an opponent who is actively trying to knock you over. Multi-agent RL is the textbook framework for this kind of strategic interaction.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) conference in Berlin, Germany
In 32 Stunden entstehen Lösungen für echte Problemstellungen aus der Industrie.
Gemeinsam von Merantix Momentum und der HANNOVER MESSE veranstaltet, bringt dieses exklusive Nachmittagsevent führende KI-Pioniere, Industrie-Entscheidungsträger:innen und High-Tech-Startups an einem Ort zusammen. Da Künstliche Intelligenz den Schritt von rein theoretischen Testphasen hin zum produktiven Einsatz in der Kernwertschöpfung vollzieht, stehen dieses Jahr konkrete Anwendungsfälle, Agent
Small models are moving from demos into production. Teams post-train them to replace the frontier-model calls their agents make thousands of times a day, and ship them on-device for privacy, offline use and cost. The hard parts rarely make it into talks: when it's worth it, which data and evals you can trust, what breaks after launch, and how runtimes and hardware behave on real devices. Berlin Bu
Over the past eight years only 700 students got into Unicon. They went on to found Langdock, Superchat, Prime Intellect, Pick’em and 90+ other companies. Others now work at OpenAI, NVIDIA and BCG. This year Unicon brings 300 selected students in software, business and design together with founders, investors and operators for two days at CODE University in Berlin. Here’s the rundown Keynotes, fire
