Humanoid robot companies are clustering around funding rounds, large model providers are aggressively moving into robotics, and governments worldwide have listed embodied AI as a strategic priority. Standing at the threshold of 2026, I see several directions poised for substantive breakthroughs.</p> <h2 id="breakthrough-1-world-models--from-imagination-to-decision-making">Breakthrough 1: World Models — From &ldquo;Imagination&rdquo; to &ldquo;Decision-Making&rdquo;</h2> <p>In 2023–2024, DreamerV3 demonstrated that world models could efficiently train policies in simulation.
