Nucleus: ~2 hours of uncut factory footage, "60% autonomous"

From the Robots digest for 2026-10-03

What happened: Nucleus (new name in our record) released nearly two hours of uncut factory footage on X (Oct 1) — one humanoid working parts-picking and beyond — claiming 60% autonomy (aiweekly/RobotsBeat-grade; unverified).

What's genuinely new: the disclosure wars' currency is uncut video, and even the 60% claim is itself the concession — if true, the remaining 40% is teleop/human-in-loop work. Who-is-Nucleus verification pending; filed as a datapoint, not a benchmark.
